PlutoSecReviews 33

After their findings, our devs started coding with security in mind. The lessons from that test are still part of our engineering onboarding today.

Plutosec accessed internal dashboards through a VPN configuration flaw we had no idea existed. They showed us exactly how to lock it down properly.

From HTTP headers to cookie flags to obscure CORS misconfigs, their testing covered everything deep and wide. Not a checkbox test. A real one.

They picked apart our OAuth implementation and showed us how it could be bypassed under very specific conditions. It took them less than 48 hours.

These guys are sharp. They didn't just use known tools they built scripts on the fly to demonstrate real-world exploitability. That level of testing is rare.

Plutosec's clean vulnerability report and evidence of remediation gave us credibility with investors. It was one of the reasons we passed tech due diligence without issues.

We were scaling rapidly and wanted to make sure our stack could hold up. Plutosec gave us that assurance by thoroughly breaking (and helping us fix) everything.

We needed something clear for leadership. Their exec summary explained the risk in simple, powerful language while the appendix had all the tech our engineers needed. Perfect balance.

They found a bunch of smaller issues and showed us how an attacker could chain them into full system compromise. That kind of thinking is rare.

They discovered an insecure endpoint we accidentally left in production. With tokens from the app, it could've been exploited for mass data theft. Crisis averted.

They crafted custom payloads to test our GraphQL API and broke things we didn't know could be broken. That's not something you get from automated scanners.

They found a way to access user data just by modifying a parameter. The exploit was easy to miss but very dangerous. Their detailed proof-of-concept helped us fix it within hours.

They demonstrated lateral movement from a guest network VLAN to sensitive internal servers. That report went straight to the board and changes were made immediately.

One of our staging environments was misconfigured and exposed. They found it, accessed it, and showed how it could be leveraged to breach production. That alone was worth the price.

Plutosec didn't sell us jargon they delivered raw results. Real attack paths, critical issues, and hands-on proof. That's what you want in a pentest.

They decompiled our iOS and Android apps, tested offline storage, intercepted traffic, and even brute-forced our PIN lockouts. Everything was methodical. You could tell they've done this a lot.

Their vulnerability assessment was instrumental in fixing issues before our PCI audit. The consultant even reviewed our firewall rules and pointed out flaws outside of the original scope. That's above and beyond.

From one exposed printer, they mapped our entire internal environment. Seeing how easy it was to jump across VLANs was horrifying—but that's exactly what we needed to see.

During the engagement, they not only tested but also taught us what to look for. We even had a Q&A session with our devs and sysadmins. It turned into a mini workshop. Very collaborative and professional.

Plutosec started from a regular user account and within days had domain admin. They showed us how our lack of segmentation and weak password policies were basically handing the keys over to any attacker with internal access. The way they documented everything helped our IT team close gaps fast. It wasn't just a pentest—it was a wake-up call.
