Corven Security — Intelligence-Led Offensive Security
Intelligence-Led Offensive Security

Your attack surface is larger than your last scan shows.

Manual testing, not automated scanning — every finding confirmed exploitable before delivery.

Corven delivers offensive security engagements that find architectural and business logic vulnerabilities automated tools cannot reach. Every finding manually verified. Every engagement scoped to a specific objective.

Three pillars.
One objective.

Offensive, defensive, and governance services — each delivered by senior practitioners, scoped to a specific outcome.

Not sure where to start? Most clients begin with a Web Application or API pentest.

01
Web Application Pentest
Full-spectrum manual assessment — authenticated crawl, full-coverage attack execution seeded with real application context. Findings mapped to OWASP Top 10 Web and CWE/CVSS. Remediation guidance includes code examples.
IDORAuthBusiness LogicOWASP Top 10
02
API Security Assessment
REST, GraphQL, gRPC — authenticated and unauthenticated. Full OWASP API Top 10 coverage plus BOLA, BFLA, mass assignment, and object property exposure chains.

External Attack Surface
Passive reconnaissance maps your full external exposure in 24–48 hours — subdomains, leaked secrets, breach exposure, open services, and dependency risks. Board-suitable executive format, no exploitation.

Goal-based adversary simulation — a defined objective, realistic techniques, and a narrative report of exactly how far we reached and where your detection failed.

LLM / AI Security
Purpose-built testing for AI-integrated applications mapped to OWASP LLM Top 10 (2025) — prompt injection, indirect injection via RAG pipelines, tool-call abuse, system prompt extraction, and model output data exfiltration.

Authentication & Identity Assessment
Deep-dive testing of authentication and identity infrastructure — MFA bypass techniques, FIDO2/WebAuthn implementation flaws, OIDC and SAML token forgery, mTLS misconfigurations, and session lifecycle attacks.

Secrets & Supply Chain Security
Automated and manual scanning for exposed secrets across repositories, CI/CD pipelines, and build artefacts — hardcoded credentials, leaked API keys, dependency confusion attacks, and third-party supply chain risk.

Breach & Compromise Assessment
Assume-breach posture assessment — lateral movement path analysis, persistence mechanism detection, credential exposure, and C2 indicator review. Delivered as an executive brief with prioritised remediation.

Intelligence before exploitation.

Generic scanners test everything and find the obvious. We build a precise map of your specific application before running a single attack — so every test fires with real context.

01
Scope & Rules of Engagement
Define the objective, permitted techniques, and legal boundaries. A signed engagement document before any work begins.

Built by practitioners.
Not by salespeople.

Corven was founded by offensive security practitioners who were tired of the same problem: clients paying for pentests and receiving Nessus scan output dressed up in a PDF. Every finding in a Corven report has been found and verified by the person writing it.

We operate a small, senior team by design. Every engagement is run by the practitioners who built our attack platform — the same people who know every edge case and every technique in the toolchain. There are no account managers between you and the work.

Series C Fintech · Payments API
Three critical IDOR chains in payments API missed by two prior vendors.
We mapped 1,200+ API endpoints across a payments platform using a full authenticated crawl, then ran contextual testing seeded with real order and account IDs — identifying three chains allowing full account takeover and transaction history access. Two previous vendors had run automated scans and found nothing.
CRITAccount takeover via /api/v2/accounts/<uuid> — no ownership check

Precision
We find what scanners cannot.
Automated tools detect known CVE patterns. Corven finds the class of vulnerabilities that require understanding your application — IDOR chains, race conditions on real endpoints, business logic flaws in complex workflows.
Signal
No noise. Every finding is real.
Every finding in a Corven report has been manually confirmed with a working proof-of-concept. You receive a precise list of confirmed exploitable findings — not a volume metric.
Authority
Senior practitioners. Direct access.
You work directly with the people running the tools and writing the findings. No account managers, no escalation chains. The practitioner who found the vulnerability explains it to your team.
Found architectural flaws in our payments API that three previous vendors missed entirely. Surgical in their approach and precise in the report.

Common questions.

Everything you need to know before a scoping call.

Do you use automated scanners or manual testing?+
Both — but not generic scanners. We build a complete picture of your application first (authenticated crawl, object IDs, business context), then run full-coverage attack execution seeded with that real data. Every finding is manually verified before inclusion. Generic off-the-shelf scanners are never used.
How long does a typical engagement take?+
A standard web application pentest runs 2–3 weeks depending on scope. External ASM is 48 hours. Red team operations run 4–6 weeks. We define the exact timeline during the scoping call — nothing starts without a signed statement of work.
Do you offer remediation support after the report?+
Every report includes a developer-ready remediation guide with step-by-step fix instructions per finding. We include a free retest within 30 days to verify your team has resolved every confirmed vulnerability. Additional remediation consulting is available on request.
What is the difference between a vulnerability scan and a pentest?+
A scan is an automated process that looks for known CVE signatures. A pentest simulates a real attacker actively trying to bypass your controls and extract data. Corven does not offer scans — only manual pentests where findings are confirmed by a practitioner.
How does pricing work?+
All engagements are fixed-price, scoped before work begins. We discuss your environment and objectives on a 30-minute call, then provide a transparent fixed-price proposal. No hourly billing, no scope creep charges, no surprises. A 50% deposit secures your start date.
Can you test production environments?+
Yes — most of our clients prefer production testing because staging environments are often missing critical business logic. We agree on safe testing windows, avoid destructive techniques, and have never caused a production outage. Full rules of engagement are documented before any test begins.

Find your vulnerabilities before attackers do.

Book a 30-minute scoping call. We will review your environment, identify your highest-risk surface, and give you a fixed-price proposal. No automated scan, no pressure.
