How long does a penetration test take?

The duration of a penetration test depends on the scope of the systems, applications, and networks being tested. Small pentests can take only a few days, while extensive corporate assessments may require up to three weeks. For large projects, it can be best to divide them into a few smaller pentests in order to test the systems in a more targeted manner and pass on the gained knowledge more efficiently.

In any case our pentests are individually planned to efficiently uncover critical security vulnerabilities. After completing the test, you receive a detailed report with actionable recommendations to improve overall IT security sustainably. This structured approach ensures that the tests are thorough while remaining time-efficient.
