Penetration Testing

Penetration testing is a controlled, authorized simulation of real-world attacks against your systems. Unlike vulnerability scanning (which identifies known weaknesses from a database), penetration testing involves manual exploitation, chained attack paths, and creative techniques that mirror how actual adversaries operate. The goal is not to check a compliance box; it is to answer a specific question: what can an attacker actually achieve against your environment?

Top Floor delivers comprehensive penetration testing across seven disciplines: network (internal and external), web application, API, cloud infrastructure, social engineering, wireless, and physical security assessments. Every engagement follows a structured, methodology-driven approach grounded in PTES (Penetration Testing Execution Standard), the OWASP Testing Guide, and NIST SP 800-115. We start with scoping and rules of engagement, move through reconnaissance and exploitation, and deliver a report that clearly explains what we found, what the business impact is, and exactly how to fix it.

Our Difference: Our testers are OSCP-certified practitioners who conduct adversary simulations every day, not junior analysts running automated tools and reformatting the output. We go beyond checkbox compliance to deliver real adversary simulation that tests your defenses the way actual threat actors would. We manually validate every finding, eliminate false positives, chain vulnerabilities into realistic attack paths, and provide proof-of-concept evidence so your engineering team can reproduce and remediate with confidence.
