Hacker-Style Penetration Test
Budget: $30 – $250 USD
I want to see my system through the eyes of a real attacker, but under lab-grade controls. The engagement must feel exactly like a malicious campaign: reconnaissance without prior briefings, exploitation attempts, lateral movement, privilege escalation, and clear evidence of what you were able (or unable) to breach.
Scope
I will spin up a replica of the production stack so you may work without fear of disrupting daily operations. The test can begin as black-box, evolve to gray-box if we hit roadblocks, and end with a white-box debrief—your call, as long as the process stays realistic. You may target the full surface: external-facing web apps, APIs, network services, and entry points you discover on your own.
What I need from you
• A concise attack plan outlining the tools and methodology you intend to follow (e.g., OWASP, NIST, MITRE ATT&CK).
• Live, time-stamped proof-of-concepts for any successful exploit or pivot.
• A final report that ranks vulnerabilities by risk, explains impact, and proposes remediations. Screenshots, logs, or packet captures should back each finding.
Boundaries & ethics
No destructive payloads, data exfil outside the lab, or social engineering of real staff. I will provide written authorization and the test window; you agree to an NDA and responsible-disclosure terms.
Send over a brief note about your past offensive security work, preferred toolset (Burp, Metasploit, custom scripts, etc.), and the earliest date you can start. Once we align on scope, I will hand you the access details and we can get hacking.
