Penetration Testing Services. Find the way in before an attacker does.
Boom Logic runs autonomous penetration tests that safely attack your live network the way an intruder would, chain weaknesses into proven attack paths, and re-run the exact attack to confirm each fix. Priced per asset at $8, plus a service fee per location starting at $700, with no scoping guesswork. Delivered by our Los Angeles security team, with a presence in One Wilshire and Equinix, for organizations nationwide.
BoomProof, Explained. Find the way in first.
Why a vulnerability scan isn’t a penetration test, what the signed rules of engagement cover, how BoomProof chains small weaknesses into a proven attack path, and how every fix is re-tested before the report reaches your leadership, engineers, auditor, and insurer.
Penetration Testing Across Network, Identity, and Cloud.
Every test runs on demand or on a schedule, starting with no credentials or with credentials you supply, so you can measure both an outsider’s view and an insider’s. Each test is scoped to the assets and locations you approve.
Internal network testing
Starting from an assumed foothold inside your network, the platform discovers hosts and services, then pivots through weak credentials, misconfigurations, and exploitable software toward domain compromise, sensitive data, and ransomware-level impact.
External attack surface testing
Discovers your internet-facing assets through DNS and open-source intelligence, lets you authorize exactly which ones are in scope, then attacks them for weak or default credentials, misconfigurations, and exploitable services.
Active Directory password audit
Tests account passwords against breach data, dark-web exposure, company-specific terms, and common mutations, then shows the blast radius: how many other accounts one cracked password would open.
Cloud identity testing
With credentials you provide, probes AWS and Microsoft Azure and Entra ID for privilege-escalation paths and over-exposed cloud assets, including routes that start on-premises and end in your cloud tenant.
Kubernetes testing
Deployed inside your cluster, it attacks live containers for RBAC misconfigurations, container escapes, exposed secrets, and runtime vulnerabilities across Amazon EKS, Google GKE, Azure AKS, and self-managed Kubernetes.
Phishing impact testing
Connected to a phishing simulation, any credentials an employee enters feed an authenticated test in real time, showing what one successful lure would have exposed, not just who clicked.
From Authorization to Verified Fix, on Your Schedule.
Autonomous does not mean unattended or unauthorized. Our security team scopes, configures, and runs every test, and nothing is tested without a signed rules-of-engagement agreement.
Scope in writing
Targets, exclusions, credentials, and schedule are agreed in a signed rules-of-engagement agreement before the first test runs.
A lightweight test host
Internal tests run from a small virtual appliance or container on your network. External tests launch from the cloud. Nothing is installed on your endpoints.
Chain weaknesses, safely
The platform chooses each next move from what it finds, chaining credentials, misconfigurations, and vulnerabilities into attack paths under production-safe controls, with a live view of every action.
Fix, then prove it
Findings arrive ranked by impact, with step-by-step proof and fix guidance. Once a fix is in, the exact attack is re-run to confirm the path is closed.
Schedule tests weekly or monthly and your exposure is measured continuously instead of once a year. For Boom 365 clients, remediation items go straight to the engineers who already run your environment.
Simple Per-Asset Pricing. Know the cost before the test runs.
BoomProof is priced on what is tested: $8 for every asset in scope, plus a tiered service fee for each location ($700 for the first, $600 for the second, $500 for the third and beyond). There is no minimum engagement and no hourly billing. Remediation is quoted separately, after the test has run and the results are in.
Per asset tested
An asset is an in-scope host: a workstation, server, network device, or cloud resource. You approve the asset list in the scoping call, so the price is fixed before the first test runs.
Service fee, tiered by location
$700 for the first location, $600 for the second, $500 for the third and beyond. Covers test-host setup, scoping, execution, and the debrief for each site. Every site counts as one location, including your external attack surface.
Separate, after the results
Testing price does not include fixing what we find. Once the results are in, we quote remediation separately so you can decide what to fix, and who fixes it.
| Environment | Assets | Locations | Testing price |
|---|---|---|---|
| External attack surface only | 25 | 1 | $900 ($200 + $700) |
| One office plus external | 100 | 2 | $2,100 ($800 + $1,300) |
| Headquarters, two clinics, plus external | 400 | 4 | $5,500 ($3,200 + $2,300) |
Testing price = $8 × assets + location service fees ($700 for the first, $600 for the second, $500 for each after). Qualifying NITEP nonprofits receive 20% off the service fee. Examples are for illustration; your assessment confirms the exact asset count and locations. Organizations with 25+ staff or endpoints receive a complimentary external penetration test and phishing simulation, and Boom 365: MSSP Pro and MSSP Enterprise include annual penetration testing.
More Than a Scan. What Every Test Gives Your Team.
A scanner reports what might be vulnerable. Penetration testing proves what is exploitable, ranks it by business impact, and tracks every fix to closure.
Proof, not severity scores
Each finding shows the exact attack path and evidence of exploitation, ranked by business impact rather than a generic CVSS score, so the noise drops out.
Fixes that close many paths
Remediation guidance highlights systemic issues: the single change that eliminates several attack paths at once, so your team makes the highest-leverage repair first.
One-click fix verification
Re-run only the attack that mattered to confirm a fix worked, the day it lands, without waiting for next year’s test or re-scoping an engagement.
Emerging-threat testing
When a new vulnerability is disclosed and actively exploited, targeted tests check whether it is actually exploitable in your environment, shortly after disclosure.
Decoy tripwires
Decoy files and accounts placed on high-risk assets alert the moment an attacker touches them, covering the window between finding a weakness and fixing it.
Endpoint defense validation
Real attack techniques show whether your endpoint detection and response tools detect, alert on, or block them, host by host.
Crown-jewel targeting
Identifies your highest-value identities and systems, such as executive accounts, domain controllers, and virtualization hosts, and ranks the attack paths that reach them.
Threat-actor mapping
Every technique is mapped to the MITRE ATT&CK framework and to the known threat groups that use it, so priorities reflect how real attackers operate.
Trend reporting
Track open weaknesses, attack paths, and mean time to remediation across every test, with executive reports for leadership and auditors.
Remediation is not part of the testing price. After the results are in, we quote it separately, and for Boom 365 clients the fix items go straight to the engineers who already run your environment.
Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing Are Not the Same Thing.
All three belong in a security program. If a provider sold you a “penetration test” that turned out to be a scanner export, you paid for the wrong one.
Vulnerability scan
Automated. Lists known weaknesses by CVE with a severity score. Fast and broad, but blind to chained weaknesses and business logic, and prone to false positives. Belongs on a continuous schedule.
Vulnerability assessment
Scan results reviewed and prioritized by an analyst against your environment: what is actually exploitable, what is exposed, and what matters first. Produces a remediation plan, not a raw list.
Penetration test
Software performs real, production-safe exploitation of network, identity, and cloud weaknesses and chains them into proven attack paths, with evidence for every step. Fast and repeatable enough to run monthly or weekly, it answers the question auditors and boards ask: could someone get in, and how far?
Boom 365: MSSP Pro and MSSP Enterprise include scanning, assessment, and an annual penetration test, watched between tests by our SOC as a Service. Comparing provider types? Start with MSP vs. MSSP vs. MDR.
Penetration testing comes standard in both MSSP tiers.
You can engage Boom Logic for a standalone penetration test. Most mid-market organizations get more from the testing cadence built into Boom 365, where the team that tests is the team that fixes.
