External Pen Testing Companies?

March 01, 2012, 09:34:14 AM »
Hello all:
I am looking for some suggestions on some good external / third-party pen testing companies. I am looking for some suggestions as we are in the market for a new company to perform these.
Thanks in advance!

Shh, you guys. I PM'd him about consulting work.
I've personally had great experiences with Fishnet Security and SecureIdeas as well.

I'd stay away from the big companies unless you are spending a lot of cash. I've had bad experiences with the "bait n switch" where they send you resumes of rockstars with the SoW but then kindergartners show up on your doorstep. I find smaller firms with highly qualified folks (not all small firms have qualified folks) are hungrier for the work and more interested in delivering a quality product.

You could always look at HatForce, I'm pretty sure that would end up cheaper than some other places.

I second that, especially if you're looking for a company where you pay per bug found (in case you choose crowd-sourced tests), but there's also the option of trusted tests, meaning only a few (trusted) testers from Hatforce will participate, where you know these are professionals, that almost competes in an ethical way to give you the best test possible, and many of them works like this while having a day job too, because they have a deep passion for infosec.

At the risk of forgetting someone, here's some more:
Infogressive
Lares
Fortify's new ShadowLabs (Part of HP)
Trustwave
Booz Allen Hamilton
Core Security
And there's plenty of big accounting firms that do 'assessments' or 'audits.'
Hope this helps,
Don
PS - If I did forget anyone, sorry. Feel free to add your name to the list or just send me a note.

Good idea. Gets the point across that there are options, and helps folks see some that they might not already have been aware of.
Thanks.
