Pricing, no surprises
$6,400
starting price · 40 credits at $160 each

Enough for a small web application and its API, free retest included. Need more coverage? Buy more credits and spend them across web, API, mobile, cloud and network as priorities change; unused credits roll over quarterly. Continuous PTaaS subscriptions are quoted on scope.

You set the budget. We fit the scope.

Working to a fixed number? Tell us what it is. We scope a timeboxed test to fit it and agree what gets tested first, so you get the most coverage your budget allows — in writing, before testing starts.

WHY ioSENTRIX

Why security teams switch to ioSENTRIX

Business-logic testing, a named engineer on every engagement, and pricing that doesn't punish you for shipping often.

  • Business-logic testing, done by handOSCP-certified engineers at a CREST-accredited firm go after authentication bypasses, privilege escalation and payment-flow abuse — the classes of flaws scanners cannot see. Manual testing finds roughly 20% more vulnerabilities than scanning alone.
  • A named engineer, not a ticket queueYou talk to the person testing your system. Findings arrive as they are confirmed, each with a working proof of concept and a code-level fix — not weeks later in a PDF.
  • Pricing that doesn't punish you for shippingContinuous penetration testing on a subscription, or credits for on-demand tests with unused credits rolling over quarterly. Test every release without negotiating a new statement of work each time.

The AI question

An AI tool isn't a pentest — it's a faster scanner

The tool was never the hard part. Years ago the choice was the same: run Burp Suite yourself, or hire a firm that also runs Burp. The scanner didn't make the difference — the person driving it did. AI hasn't changed that. It's changed the speed.

AI is genuinely good at breadth — known vulnerabilities, routine coverage, pattern-matching at scale — so we run it on every engagement to go faster and wider. But the flaws that actually get companies breached are business-logic abuse, broken authorization, and weaknesses chained into real impact — the things an autonomous tool still can't reason about.

9%
of security leaders trust automation on its own in 2026 — down from 29% a year earlier
78%
have been hit by critical false negatives from fully automated scanning

— 2026 survey of 455 security leaders

So we use AI too — then our OSCP-certified engineers do what AI can't: understand your business, chain the findings, and prove what's actually exploitable. AI makes us faster. Skill is what makes it a pentest.
How it works

From first call to verified fix

A fixed process with dates you can plan around.

  1. Scoping call within 1 business dayA senior engineer reviews your request and books a 15-minute call: what to test, how deep, and when.
  2. Fixed-price quoteScope, timeline and price in writing. Testing starts in 5–10 days; later tests under the same agreement need no new SOW.
  3. Testing, with findings in real timeManual testing of your apps, APIs, cloud and network. Critical findings are flagged the day they are confirmed, each with a proof of concept and a fix.
  4. Report, free retest, attestationAudit-ready report in 5 business days, mapped to SOC 2, PCI DSS, HIPAA and ISO 27001. Mark a finding fixed and we verify it at no charge, then issue an attestation letter.

Before you ask

Questions buyers ask before they book

How much does penetration testing cost with ioSENTRIX?

Engagements start at $6,400 — 40 credits at $160 each — which covers a small web application and its API with a free retest. Larger scopes use more credits: you buy a pool and spend it across web, API, mobile, cloud and network assets as priorities change, and unused credits roll over quarterly. Every quote is a fixed price in writing after a 15-minute scoping call; continuous PTaaS subscriptions are quoted on scope.

What types of penetration testing does ioSENTRIX perform?

We test across the full stack: web application and API, mobile app (iOS and Android), SaaS platforms, cloud infrastructure (AWS, Azure and GCP), external and internal network, thick-client and desktop applications, embedded, IoT and ICS/OT devices, and AI/ML and LLM systems. Each engagement is scoped to your architecture and threat model, and every finding comes with a proof of concept and a code-level fix.

Can an AI tool replace a penetration test?

Not yet. AI tools are excellent at breadth — known vulnerabilities, routine coverage and pattern-matching at scale — and we use them on every engagement. But business-logic flaws, broken authorization and chained exploits need a human who understands your application and your risk. In a 2026 survey of 455 security leaders, only 9% trusted automation on its own and 78% reported critical false negatives from fully automated scanning. ioSENTRIX pairs AI speed with OSCP-certified engineers who validate, chain and prove each finding — so you get the coverage of automation and the depth of a real pentest.

Can you work to a fixed budget?

Yes. Tell us the number and we scope a timeboxed test to fit it, agreeing up front what gets tested first so the budget goes to the highest-risk surface. You get the scope, the hours and the price in writing before testing starts.

How long does a penetration test take?

A standard web application or API test takes 1–3 weeks including reporting; multi-application, network and cloud assessments take 4–6 weeks. Under PTaaS, tests run alongside your release cycle, so you are not waiting on an annual window.

Does PTaaS satisfy the penetration testing expectation for SOC 2, PCI DSS or HIPAA?

Yes, when the testing is manual and performed by an independent, qualified third party. ioSENTRIX reports are mapped to the relevant criteria — SOC 2 CC3.2, CC4.1 and CC7.1; PCI DSS v4.0.1 Requirement 11.4; HIPAA §164.308 — and every engagement includes an attestation letter that auditors and QSAs accept. For SOC 2 Type II, 3–4 testing cycles across the audit period are stronger evidence than one annual test.

What is the difference between a penetration test and a vulnerability scan?

A scanner matches your systems against a database of known issues and cannot tell you whether anything is actually exploitable. In a penetration test an engineer exploits and chains weaknesses the way an attacker would, including business-logic flaws no scanner detects. In our engagements, manual testing finds roughly 20% more vulnerabilities than scanning alone, mostly in authentication, authorization and privilege escalation.

Will testing disrupt production?

No. Rules of engagement are agreed during scoping: testing windows, excluded systems, rate limits and an emergency-stop contact. Most testing runs against staging or production under those limits without downtime.

What do we need to provide to get started?

For a quote: a short description of what you want tested (number of apps, APIs, IP ranges, cloud accounts), your budget if you have one, and any compliance deadline. For testing: test accounts, scope documentation and a technical contact. We handle the rest.
