Indicative scope: the WebApp Pentest launch promo covers a single web application of up to ~100 endpoints and 2 RBAC roles. AI and Manual engagements scale to your environment — additional apps, APIs, cloud accounts, and user roles increase scope. Final scope, price, and turnaround are confirmed in your Rules of Engagement before any testing begins.

Annual Coverage — Limited Roster
We work with a small roster
— by design.
Annual Coverage is application-only. We protect quality by capping the number of accounts we maintain. If you're scoping continuous offensive testing across the year, start an application.
Frequently asked
What is penetration testing? +
Penetration testing (a "pentest") is a simulated cyberattack on your systems, applications, or network — run by a certified tester — to find exploitable vulnerabilities before real attackers do. You get a prioritized report with risk ratings and step-by-step remediation your team can act on immediately.
What is the AI Pentest and how does it work? +
The AI Pentest is a custom-built penetration testing agent — built on the Anthropic Cyber Verification Program — that runs real offensive security tools across your attack surface, chains findings, and verifies exploitability. Edoardo (CPENT, LPT Master, OSCP) personally reviews every report before delivery.
How much does a penetration test cost for a small business? +
Fixed-scope pricing starts at $1,299 for the WebApp Pentest launch promo (up to 100 endpoints), $2,499 for the AI Pentest, and $4,999 for the Manual Pentest — the compliance-grade option with a pentester-signed report and one free re-test. Vulnerability Scanning bills $1 per device per scan.
Which compliance frameworks does your pentest report support? +
The Manual Pentest delivers a pentester-signed report accepted as evidence for HIPAA, PCI-DSS, ISO 27001, and SOC 2 audits. The AI Pentest report is not pentester-signed, so it is best for continuous validation between compliance cycles rather than the audit itself.
What is the difference between a pentest and a vulnerability scan? +
A vulnerability scanner matches software versions against a database of known CVEs but does not prove exploitability. A penetration test uses real offensive techniques — chaining flaws, testing authentication, escalating privileges — to show what an attacker could actually do. The result is real risk evidence, not a list of unverified alerts.
Where is Solid Cyber based, and do you work with companies outside Wyoming? +
Solid Cyber LLC is registered in Sheridan, Wyoming and operates fully remote across the United States — including dedicated coverage for Texas (Dallas, Fort Worth, Houston). No on-site presence is required for any engagement.
Do you sign NDAs and Rules of Engagement? +
We sign a Rules of Engagement (RoE) for every engagement — it defines scope, authorization, testing windows, and escalation contacts before any testing begins. If you require an NDA, we'll sign a client-provided one before sensitive scoping discussions; we don't supply NDA templates, the client provides them.
