Penetration Testing in Houston, TX

A Houston engagement covers your external attack surface (web apps, cloud assets, email), internal network exposure, and API security. Houston's energy, healthcare, and port-logistics sectors add specifics: healthcare needs HIPAA-aligned testing with privacy controls in scope, while energy and logistics firms often need cloud and vendor-access testing. Scope is always set in a signed Rules of Engagement first.

HIPAA's Security Rule requires a periodic technical evaluation of your safeguards (45 CFR § 164.308(a)(8)), and penetration testing is the recognized way to satisfy it — and what auditors expect. For Houston's hospitals, clinics, and health-tech vendors, our Manual Pentest delivers a pentester-signed report suitable as HIPAA audit evidence.

Yes. Many Houston energy and logistics companies run across AWS, Azure, and GCP with multiple third-party integrations. We test cloud misconfigurations, IAM privilege escalation, cross-account access paths, and vendor VPN exposure. Before testing any cloud environment we confirm the provider's pentest notification policy and capture the boundaries in the Rules of Engagement.

We sign a Rules of Engagement (RoE) before 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. Every engagement is led and reviewed by Edoardo Ciccarelli (CPENT, LPT Master, OSCP).
