Penetration testing is a report — but above all, it is a matter of proof

CyberFlow Cyprus is a cybersecurity consultancy that tests organisations' digital assets through the eyes of a real attacker. Based in Northern Cyprus, we deliver remotely and on site.

Our approach

Two kinds of "security testing" are sold in the market. One runs a scanner and turns the output into a PDF. The other genuinely thinks like an attacker. We are in the second group — but we use the tools as well.

A scanner catches known patterns: outdated library versions, missing headers, known CVEs. Those matter, but they do not find privilege escalation chains, business logic flaws or combined scenarios. Example: manipulating a password reset flow from a staff account to reach the admin panel. No tool chains that together.

We prove every finding

We do not write "might be" in a report. If a finding is in the report, its exploitability has been tested within safe limits. That means every critical finding you read is a genuinely usable weakness — not theoretical.

The reverse holds too: we do not label an unverified suspicion as critical and send you on unnecessary work. A false alarm is as costly as a real finding, because it erodes your team's trust in the report.

Methodology

Our testing follows internationally recognised standards:

  • OWASP WSTG — web application testing guide
  • OWASP API Top 10 — API security risks
  • PTES — penetration testing execution standard
  • MITRE ATT&CK — adversary technique classification
  • CVSS — severity scoring

The methodology is stated explicitly in the report, so it can be used as a reference in audits.

Our confidentiality commitment

Before testing
A confidentiality agreement (NDA) is signed. Scope (RoE) is defined in writing: which systems, which time window, which techniques.

During testing
Personal data accessed is not included in the report — only masked samples. Data is not copied or retained.

After testing
All temporary access and test accounts are removed. A data destruction letter is issued on request.

Findings
Reported to you alone. Never shared with third parties or the public under any circumstances.

Our scope limits

We are equally clear about what we do not do:

  • We do not test systems you do not have written authority over
  • We do not test third-party owned assets without a permission document
  • We do not run destructive tests affecting production without your approval
  • We do not collect, copy or retain personal data

Why us

A readable report Two layers: an executive summary (no technical background required) and technical detail (copyable steps). Both the board and the developer use the same document.
Transparent pricing We publish our starting prices. We do not say "contact us for a quote" — a firm written quote follows the scope call.
With you until it is fixed We do not drop the report and leave. Depending on package, a free verification round proves the findings actually closed.
Local context We understand how businesses in Northern Cyprus are structured: hotel and tourism systems, offshore entities, local regulatory obligations.
