Penetration testing in South Africa, on demand

PentestMe is a South African penetration testing platform that runs a real pentest across your web apps, APIs, network and cloud whenever you need one, and returns a validated report the same day.

Every finding is checked for real exploitability, so you get proof rather than a list of maybes, at a fraction of the cost of a traditional once-a-year engagement.

What we test

One platform covers the surfaces that matter to a modern South African business. Each links to the full methodology we follow.

Penetration testing and POPIA

POPIA requires that you secure the personal information you hold with appropriate, reasonable technical and organisational measures, and that you can demonstrate you have done so. A penetration test on every meaningful release is one of the clearest ways to show that due diligence between formal audits.

PentestMe gives you a dated, evidence-backed report for each test, so the proof is on file the day you need it, whether that is for the Information Regulator, a customer security questionnaire, or your own board.

How pentesting supports POPIA

A better economics than a once-a-year engagement

A traditional South African consultancy pentest typically runs from R50 000 to R150 000 and lands once a year, weeks after you asked for it. Your code changes far more often than that. PentestMe puts an on-demand test in reach for a monthly subscription, so you can validate every release instead of hoping nothing broke since the last audit.
