Pentest

We base our approach on the OSSTMM (Open Source Security Testing Methodology Manual) and the PTES (Penetration Testing Execution Standard) - thorough and realistic security testing.

During pen testing, we mimic targeted attacks as an attacker would execute them in practice: intercepting traffic, bypassing authentication, cracking encryption, and exploiting poorly separated networks or guest access.

Pentesting according to the MIAUW method

With a pen test using the MIAUW method (Methodology for Information Security Research with Audit Value), you go beyond just finding vulnerabilities: you take a structured, transparent and reproducible approach that delivers audit value and complies with modern laws and regulations such as AVG, NIS2 and the upcoming Cyber Resilience Act.

Where traditional pen testing focuses primarily on technical results, MIAUW ensures that the full scope, execution, documentation and evaluation are clear and auditable. This not only makes it easier to identify risks, but also to demonstrably mitigate them towards auditors and governance stakeholders.

In practice, pentesting according to MIAUW means:

• Clear scoping: Exactly what will be tested, how and with what objectives are defined in advance.

• Transparent design: Each step of the study is traceable and reproducible, ensuring the quality and consistency of the test.

• Documentation with audit value: findings are documented according to established criteria, making audits easier and more reliable.

• Measurable results: the framework makes results comparable and testable, which helps with risk communication and determining follow-up actions.

Our specialists test your network from multiple angles using realistic attack techniques, both external (such as an outside attacker) and internal (as if a malicious person already has access).

We include all connected devices in our approach: servers, laptops, storage drives, printers, network hardware and any linked Web applications. With that, a network pen test provides a particularly complete picture of your security status.

We analyze how the various components of your network communicate with each other, who has access to them, and where possible weak links are located. Then we sharply map out where the most at-risk vulnerabilities are.

Our Web application pen tests are structured according to three recognized standards: OSSTMM, PTES and OWASP.

The combination of these frameworks provides a systematic approach that identifies both technical vulnerabilities and logical flaws. Here, OWASP forms the core for assessing Web application-specific risks, such as authentication issues, access to sensitive data, and session management errors.

Unlike automated scans, we focus on realistic attack scenarios, evaluating vulnerabilities within the context of your application and business logic. Think privilege escalation via faulty privilege structures, or combining seemingly minor issues into a functional attack chain.

Internet-connected devices range from ubiquitous, commercial Internet of Things (IoT) devices and systems to automotive, healthcare and mission-critical Industrial Control Systems (ICS) applications.

In our testing, we go beyond just testing the device itself; we consider the target's entire ecosystem. This includes assessing communication channels and protocols, the use of encryption and cryptography, interfaces and APIs, firmware, hardware and other critical components.

Your applications are a source of both trust and revenue. But hidden logic flaws and silent API leaks can turn them undetected into the easiest target for attackers.

Warpnet helps you with an in-depth, fully tester-led security assessment, fully aligned with OWASP guidelines. Our pen tests are performed exclusively by experienced specialists with OSCP certification - no scanners, no scripts, but true professionals.

We investigate ALL access routes, looking beyond the well-known OWASP Top 10 and exposing complex, often overlooked vulnerabilities - including advanced business-logic exploits that automated tools miss.

Warpnet specializes in conducting pen tests to support organizations seeking to comply with security standards such as ISO 27001, DigiD, PCI DSS and BIO.

Our reports are designed for readability for auditors and regulators: technical findings and risk analyses are explicitly linked to the relevant standard articles. This ensures instant traceability and prevents differences in interpretation during an audit.

In addition, we adopt a reporting structure consistent with the documentation requirements of commonly used frameworks, including management summaries, risk ratings and mitigation recommendations at the tactical and operational levels.
