Cybersecurity

Cybersecurity for apps, APIs and cloud: we find the flaws before an attacker does.

With hands-on experience attacking and defending production systems, we assess your app, your APIs and your cloud infrastructure the way an attacker would, and hand you a remediation plan prioritized by risk, not a generic list of findings.

What the service includes

Four lines of work you can hire separately or as an ongoing security program.

01

Mobile, web and API penetration testing

Manual and automated penetration tests on iOS, Android, web applications and their APIs, simulating a real attacker.

  • OWASP Mobile Top 10 and Web Top 10
  • Authentication, sessions, authorization and access control
  • Local storage, network traffic and certificate pinning
  • Injection, data exposure and business-logic flaws
02

Code and architecture audit

Review of the source code and solution design to catch vulnerabilities before they reach production.

  • Static analysis plus manual review of critical paths
  • Vulnerable dependencies and secrets management
  • Permission design, roles and sensitive flows
  • Secure development recommendations for your team
03

Cloud and infrastructure hardening

We secure your infrastructure on AWS, Google Cloud or Azure and the processes that deploy and operate it.

  • IAM, networking, encryption and service configuration
  • CI/CD pipelines and software supply chain
  • Monitoring, alerting and security event logging
  • Incident response and recovery plan
04

Compliance and consulting

We guide your company through regulatory requirements and help build a security culture.

  • Controls aligned with ISO 27001
  • Ecuador's Personal Data Protection Law (LOPDP) for LatAm operations
  • Policies, procedures and information classification
  • Hands-on training for technical and business teams

How the process works

  1. 1

    Scope and rules of engagement

    We define assets, environments, testing windows, contacts and success criteria. NDA and formal testing authorization are signed up front.

  2. 2

    Execution

    Reconnaissance, analysis and controlled exploitation. Critical findings are reported immediately, without waiting for the final report.

  3. 3

    Report and prioritization

    You receive the technical report with evidence and reproduction steps, plus an executive summary for leadership.

  4. 4

    Remediation and verification

    We help fix the issues and re-test the closed findings. Optional periodic follow-up.

What you receive

  • Technical report with severity (CVSS), evidence and reproduction steps.
  • Executive summary in business language for leadership and auditors.
  • Remediation plan prioritized by risk and impact.
  • Re-test of fixed findings and a closure letter.
  • Review session with your engineering team.

Who it is for

Companies with apps in production

Handling personal data, payments or sensitive information and needing to know how exposed they are.

Startups before launch or fundraising

Wanting to reach launch or due diligence with an independent assessment in hand.

Teams facing compliance requirements

Healthcare, fintech and commerce teams dealing with data protection laws, payment gateway requirements or customer audits.

Cybersecurity FAQ

How much does a penetration test cost?

It depends on scope: number of applications, APIs, user roles and testing depth. A penetration test for one mobile app and its API typically starts at $2,500; programs covering several applications and infrastructure are quoted per project. We send a fixed-scope, fixed-price proposal after a 30-minute call.

How long does a security assessment take?

A penetration test of one app and its API usually takes 1 to 3 weeks including the report. Code and infrastructure audits vary with system size. Critical findings are communicated immediately, without waiting for the final report.

Can testing affect my production system?

We coordinate testing windows, avoid destructive tests and prefer staging environments when available. Any test with potential impact is agreed in writing before it runs.

Can you assess an app built by another company?

Yes. Much of our work is on systems built by third parties. We only need access to the agreed environments and, for code audits, to the repository.

Why hire a nearshore security team in Ecuador?

You get senior, English-fluent engineers working in US time zones (UTC-5) at LatAm rates, with the same OWASP-based methodology and reporting standards you would expect from a US firm. Communication happens in real time, not overnight.
