External Penetration Testing
Identify meaningful pathways attackers could take through exposed assets using real offensive techniques.
Offensive Security Assessments
Real attacker-modeled penetration testing designed to uncover the risks scanners miss.
The Hoplite Difference
Security scanners generate reports.
We simulate real attacks.

We simulate real attacks.
Hoplite’s offensive security assessments are designed to answer a single question:
If someone wanted to compromise your organization, could they, and how far could they go?
We don’t run automated tools and hand you a report.
We replicate attacker tradecraft, validate impact, help you remediate, and re-test to confirm remediation.
That’s the Hoplite difference.

What We Mean by "Offensive Security"
Our approach to offensive security is a controlled, authorized attack simulation that quantifies your real organizational risk.
Not theoretical risk scoring, but a hands-on exploitation performed by experienced operators who understand how attackers actually move across networks, applications, identity systems, and cloud environments.
Our engagements are outcome-driven, and our scope evolves over time as we continue to challenge ourselves. We push the boundaries to continue improving your environment.

Web Application Security Assessments
Uncover logic flaws, chained risks, authentication weaknesses, and identity issues across multi-app ecosystems.
Internal Penetration Testing
Evaluate how far an attacker can move inside once access is gained by surfacing identity issues, misconfigurations, lateral movement pathways, and privilege escalation.
Cloud Configuration Reviews
Analysis of cloud configurations to reveal misconfigurations, insecure defaults, excessive permissions, and exploitable trust relationships.
M365 and Identity Security Assessments
Evaluation of authentication, MFA, mail rules, admin privileges, conditional access, and tenant configuration to surface takeover and persistence risks.

How do you scope engagements?
What makes Hoplite different?
Many firms deliver reports. We deliver measurable improvement. We replicate real attacker techniques. We measure and validate impact. We work directly with your technical team. We include remediation guidance. We re-test to confirm fixes. Everything we do is outcome-driven. You should leave an engagement demonstrably more secure than when we started.
When is an offensive security assessment right?
You should consider offensive security testing if: You haven’t tested in the last 12 months You’ve experienced rapid growth or system changes You’re preparing for compliance audits You’ve added new applications or cloud infrastructure You want to validate your internal security controls You need independent validation beyond internal security teams Even strong in-house teams benefit from an external perspective. We work alongside internal security teams regularly to provide fresh eyes, different tradecraft, and unbiased validation.
Is this just a vulnerability scan?
No. Scanning tools may be used as part of testing, but the value comes from human exploitation, chaining findings, and validating real impact.
How long does testing take?
Timelines depend on scope, complexity, and objectives. Smaller engagements may run a few weeks, while complex application or adversary simulations can take longer. We define timeline during scoping based on risk, not arbitrary duration.
Will this disrupt our business?
We design testing to avoid downtime unless explicitly agreed upon for red-team style objectives.
Do you provide remediation support?
Yes. Remediation guidance and re-testing are baked into our approach.
