FAQ

Security assessment questions, answered directly.

Use this page to help buyers understand what a penetration test includes, how remote testing works, and what they receive at the end of an engagement.

What is a penetration test?

A penetration test is an authorized security assessment that simulates real-world attack techniques against your systems. The goal is to identify exploitable weaknesses, demonstrate their impact, and provide clear remediation guidance.

Why does my organization need one?

Penetration testing helps organizations understand where defenses may fail before an attacker finds the same weakness. It supports risk reduction, compliance readiness, secure product delivery, and stronger incident preparedness.

Can testing be performed remotely?

Yes. Most FaultLabs services can be delivered remotely with a structured process for scoping, secure access, communication, reporting, and retesting.

What do we receive at the end?

You receive a professional report with an executive summary, technical findings, severity ratings, reproduction steps, affected assets, evidence, and recommended remediation actions.

How long does an assessment take?

Timing depends on scope, complexity, access, and deliverables. A focused assessment may take a few days, while larger application, cloud, or infrastructure reviews may require more time.

Do you support remediation?

Yes. FaultLabs can help teams understand findings, prioritize fixes, review remediation approaches, and retest corrected vulnerabilities when included in scope.
