Validated finding
We reproduce or otherwise validate the finding within the agreed scope, using safe, non-destructive checks, and map the affected component and exposure.
A security finding is open. Guessing at the fix is not a plan.
A scanner alert, a customer report, or a failed review needs a careful answer: is it real, what is affected, and what change actually closes it? We qualify the finding, agree a remediation scope, and require a qualified independent review before the fix is treated as complete.
Fees
Qualification$500
Remediation sprintfrom $2,500
The assessment fee is credited toward the matching approved sprint. You get a written scope and quote after the assessment; work starts only after you approve it.
Prices are in USD. The sprint is quoted from the assessment findings; the amount shown is the starting point, not a fixed total.
The finding is specific. The scope is not.
A scanner line can point at a dependency, a header, a permission, or a code path. Treating the alert as the whole problem can miss the exploitable route; changing code without a retest can leave it open. The team needs a bounded, verifiable answer under time pressure.
Scan output is evidence, not a fix
A finding needs validation against the actual application and its configuration before anyone knows which change closes it.
Urgency pushes teams to skip verification
The fastest-looking change can break a login flow, a partner integration, or a production permission. The fix needs a test and a rollback.
Completion needs an independent check
A change that passes the author's own check is not enough. The agreed reviewer must confirm the result before the work is accepted.
What you get
Validate the finding, fix the agreed scope, then prove it.
The qualification is a fixed-fee first step. The remediation sprint is quoted from the validated finding.
Remediation scope
A written plan naming the change, the verification criteria, the access needed, and what is out of scope. The $500 qualification is credited toward the approved sprint.
Scoped fixes
Code or configuration changes for the agreed finding, plus tests and a rollback path that fit the application.
Independent review and retest
A qualified independent reviewer checks the remediation and the retest evidence. Completion means that review has passed, not that a patch was deployed.
What this is not
Remediation is narrower than a security program. The written scope names the finding and the acceptance checks so nothing broader is implied.
- A full penetration test, red-team exercise, or compliance audit.
- A certification, attestation, or guarantee that no other vulnerabilities exist.
- Incident response, forensics, or 24/7 monitoring.
- Fixes in third-party systems or vendors outside your control, unless separately scoped.
- A guarantee of compliance with any framework; the written scope names the finding and the acceptance checks.
How it works
Qualify, fix, then have the result independently reviewed.
Access is arranged after the inquiry. Do not send credentials, secrets, or exploit details that could expose a system.
- 1
Intake
You describe the finding, the affected component, the business impact, and any deadline. Keep secrets and customer data out of the form.
- 2
Qualify
We validate the finding within the agreed scope, map the affected path, and identify the safe verification method.
- 3
Scope and approve
You get the remediation scope, the independent review plan, the acceptance checks, and a written quote. The qualification fee is credited toward the approved sprint.
- 4
Remediate and review
We make the approved changes and run the agreed checks. A qualified independent reviewer verifies the result before the work is accepted.
Requirement
Independent review is required.
No remediation is accepted as complete on a self-check alone. Required reviewer availability and cost must be confirmed before accepting the sprint. The agreed qualified independent reviewer verifies the fix and retest evidence. If that review is not possible, the work stays open rather than being marked done.

Is this a penetration test?
No. This service remediates an agreed finding or set of findings. A broader penetration test is outside this offer.
Who performs the independent review?
A qualified reviewer independent of the remediation work, agreed in the scope before the sprint. We do not claim a certification or accreditation for that review.
Can you guarantee we will be compliant?
No. We can fix and verify the agreed finding, but compliance depends on scope, standards, and evidence beyond one remediation. We do not sell a compliance guarantee.
What if the finding is in a vendor?
We document the evidence and the boundary. A fix may depend on the vendor's response, and we say that in the scope rather than pretending we control it.
How fast can you start?
The qualification comes first. After the inquiry we agree access and timing; urgent scope is still scoped and quoted before remediation.
How much is the assessment?
The qualification is $500 and is credited toward the approved remediation sprint, which starts at $2,500. The quote follows the qualification.
