FAQ

[  01  ]

How does Penti tailor penetration testing to financial services organizations?

Penti models real attacker behavior against the unique transaction flows, authentication layers, and regulatory expectations of financial systems. Our Agentic‑AI and experts focus on fraud vectors, privilege escalation paths, payment workflows, and data‑handling processes critical to banks, fintechs, and payment platforms.

Can Penti support audits and regulatory compliance requirements?

Yes. Penti provides audit‑ready reports with evidence mapped to financial‑sector frameworks including SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI DSS, NYDFS, and FFIEC guidance. Findings include clear control mappings, reproducible proof, and narratives aligned with auditor expectations.

[  03  ]

Do you test both cloud and on‑prem financial infrastructure?

Absolutely. We assess hybrid environments spanning cloud platforms, core banking systems, APIs, mobile apps, networks, and third‑party integrations. Our approach ensures consistent assurance across legacy and modern architectures.

[  04  ]

Will continuous testing disrupt critical financial systems?

No. Penti uses safe testing methodologies, controlled guardrails, and carefully coordinated windows to avoid service degradation. We ensure realistic simulations without risking uptime or customer experience.
