In a traditional pentest, the findings arrive when the test is already over.
What a tester finds early waits in their notes until the report is written. Your team starts fixing weeks later, from a document, with no one left to ask. And the worst of it: an attacker has those same weeks to find it first.
Watch it happen
Follow one finding through the whole engagement. Your tester confirms it, shows the evidence, answers questions and returns to verify the fix in the same Outer Core workspace.
Follow one finding from confirmation to verified fix in Outer Core.

Test the systems your business depends on
Every engagement is a penetration test. The scope depends on what you are building and what you need us to test. We match the work to a tester with experience on that surface.
Test the systems your business depends on
Tell us what you are building and what needs testing. We will match the work to a tester with experience on that surface.
Fix it with the person who found it
Ask the tester for context, share the evidence with your engineers and request a retest when the fix is ready. The conversation and status stay with the finding in Outer Core.
Ask the tester questions and request a retest when the fix is ready. Everything stays with the finding.
Tester validates the finding with evidence.
Owned by your team, with remediation guidance.
You patch; we re-verify against the same case.
Closed and evidenced. Or accepted as known risk.
Ask the tester who found the issue how to reproduce it, what makes it exploitable and whether your proposed fix addresses the cause.
A confirmed finding becomes a GitHub issue automatically, with its severity, evidence and remediation guidance. Comments sync both ways. The finding status and final report remain authoritative in Outer Core.

No account manager in the middle. Ask the tester who found the issue how to reproduce and fix it, in context, on the finding.

See what has been fixed
Retest results update the finding record and the dashboard. Your team can see what remains open and what the tester has verified in the tested context.
The chart uses sample data to show how progress can be tracked across an engagement.

A pentest should leave your team ready to act
Your team can see what was tested, reproduce each confirmed issue and know what to fix next.
A pentest should leave your team ready to act
Your team can see what was tested, reproduce each confirmed issue and know what to fix next.
Each confirmed finding explains the affected system, conditions, proof and demonstrated impact.
Remediation guidance gives engineers a practical place to start and keeps the tester available for questions.
The approved scope, methodology, findings and recorded retest results stay together.

Is this automated or AI scanning?
No. Every engagement is led by a human penetration tester. Tools may help with discovery, testing and evidence collection, but they do not decide what counts as a finding. The tester validates the issue, determines its impact, connects related weaknesses and explains what it means for your system.
How is this different from a bug bounty?
A bug bounty invites researchers to report issues under a standing programme. Our work is a time-bound penetration test with an agreed scope, a responsible tester and a reviewed report.
Where is our data hosted?
All Outer Core data, including user and engagement data, is stored in the EU.
What does the final report include?
The report documents the approved scope, methodology, confirmed findings, evidence and remediation guidance. Your auditor, assessor or customer decides whether it meets their requirement.
How fast can we start?
Timing depends on the scope and the availability of a tester with the right experience. After scoping, we will confirm the testing window in the quote.
What does it cost?
Pricing is based on the systems, depth, timing and access involved. We agree the scope first, then send a quote for approval before testing begins.
