PentX runs real, exploit-proven pentests in hours. You deliver the report under your brand, keep the client relationship, and resell each engagement at up to 90% gross margin. Add a named CREST-certified human co-sign when your client, auditor, or insurer requires it.
Already used by 70+ IT companies to deliver external, web, internal, and cloud pentests under their own brand.
Every year, your clients face more cyber insurance questionnaires, compliance requests, vendor security reviews, and board-level security questions. When they ask for a pentest, most MSPs either say "we don't do that," subcontract the work, or send the client to a specialist provider. That means lost margin, lost control, and sometimes a weakened client relationship.
PentX lets you keep the opportunity inside your business. You scope the engagement, PentX runs the pentest, and your client receives a professional report under your brand.
Sell annual pentests, retests, remediation support, vCISO packages, and compliance evidence without building an offensive-security team.
Pentesting gives you a strategic security conversation with the client before a competitor, auditor, insurer, or boutique pentest firm gets there first.
No senior pentester hire. No report-writing bottleneck. No subcontractor margin split.
PentX gives your MSP the ability to sell and deliver professional pentests without hiring offensive-security talent. Your team defines the scope, PentX performs reconnaissance, exploitation, validation, and reporting, and the final deliverable is exported under your brand.
Every finding is backed by proof: exploit chain, payload, request and response captures, screenshots, affected asset, business impact, and remediation guidance. When required, a CREST-certified senior engineer can review and co-sign the report before it reaches your client.
Pentesting should be one of the highest-margin services in your cybersecurity portfolio. In practice, most MSPs lose the opportunity before they can productize it.
You sell the project, but a boutique provider does the work, keeps most of the margin, and becomes visible to your client. You carry the relationship risk while someone else owns the specialist credibility.
Hiring a real senior pentester is expensive, slow, and risky. Even when you find one, they become the bottleneck for scoping, testing, validation, reporting, client calls, and retests.
Vulnerability scanners create tickets. MSP clients need a defensible pentest report with proof, impact, remediation guidance, and, when necessary, a named human sign-off.
When a client asks for a pentest and you cannot deliver it, they go to a security provider. That provider now has a strategic security conversation with your client.
Your MSP controls the client relationship. PentX handles the pentest execution and reporting engine behind the scenes.
Add the approved assets: domains, web applications, IP ranges, internal network targets, or cloud environments. Scope is enforced at the network layer so the test cannot exceed what you authorize.
PentX performs reconnaissance, exploitation, validation, and evidence collection across the approved attack surface. Your team does not need to manually drive the test.
Every confirmed vulnerability includes reproducible proof: exploit chain, payload, request and response captures, screenshots, affected assets, severity, business impact, and remediation steps.
Export the final report with your logo, your colors, and your client-facing language. On the Partner tier, the client experience can be fully white-labeled.
For cyber insurance, regulated clients, enterprise sign-off, or auditor evidence, request a CREST-certified senior engineer review and co-sign before delivery.
After your MSP fixes or coordinates remediation, run the included retest and send the client proof that the issues were resolved.
MSPs need predictable scope so they can price confidently. Every engagement is confirmed before launch, so you know your delivery cost before you quote or deliver.
| Engagement type | What one credit covers |
|---|---|
| External pentest | One approved external attack surface for one client, such as a defined set of public IPs, domains, and exposed services. |
| Web application pentest | One approved web application or client-facing portal, including the agreed URLs, authentication flow, and test accounts where applicable. |
| Internal pentest | One approved internal network scope, delivered through the agreed internal access method and limited to the assets authorized by the client. |
| Cloud pentest | One approved cloud environment or account scope, limited to the assets and permissions authorized before launch. |
| Retest | One retest of the same scope after remediation, included with each pentest credit. |
Large, complex, multi-environment, or multi-application scopes may require more than one credit. You will always know this before the engagement starts. No surprise usage. No margin leakage.
A professional pentest deliverable under your brand, built for technical teams, executives, insurers, and auditors.
Clear business-level explanation of risk, impact, and priority actions.
Confirmed vulnerabilities with severity, affected assets, exploit evidence, and reproduction details.
Screenshots, payloads, request and response captures, and exploit chain where applicable.
Practical steps your MSP can execute or coordinate with the client's internal team.
Evidence that previously identified issues were fixed or remain unresolved.
A named senior engineer review and sign-off for clients that require additional assurance.
Pentesting should not end with a PDF. Each finding gives your MSP a reason to help the client reduce risk, improve controls, and buy ongoing security support.
Fix exposed services, misconfigurations, vulnerable applications, weak authentication, cloud issues, and network segmentation gaps.
Turn findings into firewall, EDR, identity, backup, logging, monitoring, and hardening projects.
Use the report and retest as evidence for ISO 27001, SOC 2, PCI-DSS, cyber insurance, and vendor reviews.
Convert findings into a quarterly security roadmap and board-ready risk register.
With 10-pack pricing, your delivery cost can drop to €250 per pentest. You choose your client price, bundle it into your security packages, and keep the margin.
One external or web pentest per year, executive summary, remediation plan, and retest.
Pentest report, evidence of remediation, and optional CREST-certified co-sign for insurer review.
Pentest, risk register update, board-ready summary, remediation roadmap, and retest confirmation.
The pentest is not the only revenue. MSPs also monetize remediation, monthly security management, compliance advisory, policy work, vCISO reviews, and follow-up projects triggered by the findings.
You do not need to educate the market from scratch. Your clients already understand the need: cyber insurance, compliance, vendor reviews, board pressure, and real attack exposure.
PentX is built for MSPs that want to sell a finished cybersecurity deliverable under their own brand.
| Option | What happens | MSP problem |
|---|---|---|
| Hire a pentester | You build internal capacity | High fixed cost, hard hiring, report bottleneck, retention risk |
| Subcontract to a boutique | Someone else delivers the project | Lower margin, slower delivery, client relationship exposure |
| Use a scanner | You get technical findings | Your team still has to validate, explain, prioritize, and write the report |
| Use traditional PTaaS | A third party delivers the pentest | Less control, slower delivery, thinner reseller economics |
| Use PentX | You deliver a white-label, exploit-proven pentest under your brand | High margin, fast delivery, optional human co-sign, client relationship stays with you |
PentX gives MSPs the economics of software, the credibility of exploit-proven testing, and the commercial control of a white-label service.
MSPs cannot risk sending clients hallucinated CVEs, generic scanner noise, or weak reports. PentX is built around evidence, scope control, and optional human review.
A finding only reaches the report when it is backed by reproducible evidence: exploit path, request and response captures, payload, screenshots, affected asset, severity, and remediation guidance.
The authorized scope is enforced at the network layer. PentX cannot test outside the assets approved for the engagement. Rate-limiting, kill switches, and audit logs are part of the delivery model.
When a client, insurer, auditor, or enterprise buyer requires human accountability, a CREST-certified senior engineer can review and co-sign the engagement before delivery.
Your client sees your brand, your report, and your security practice. PentX stays behind the scenes unless you choose otherwise.
From 8–12 outsourced pentests a year to 125 engagements in 5 months. A US Northeast IT company serving financial-sector clients replaced outsourced delivery with PentX, cut cost per engagement by 70%, and turned PCI-DSS 4.0 and SOC 2 evidence into an on-demand service. Result: payback inside month one.
Faster report turnaround. CTDefense used PentX to reduce report turnaround from 25 hours of manual writing to 4 hours of senior review, freeing senior engineers for remediation and client-facing advisory. Result: more delivery capacity without reducing report defensibility.
Auditor acceptance over 12 months. Forward Defense submitted PentX-powered reports to Big Four auditors over 12 months with 100% acceptance and zero revisions. Result: MSP-grade delivery with auditor-ready evidence.
Every paid pentest includes one retest. Use PentX as a one-off delivery engine, a 10-client annual pentest package, or a full white-label partner program.

No. Vulnerability scanners identify potential issues. PentX delivers a pentest-style engagement with validated, exploit-proven findings, evidence, business impact, remediation guidance, and a client-ready report. Your team does not need to manually turn scanner output into a professional pentest report.
On the Partner tier, the client experience can be fully white-labeled with your logo, colors, report branding, and client-facing positioning. Your MSP owns the relationship and delivers the report.
Yes. PentX is designed for MSPs and IT service providers that want to resell pentesting under their own brand. You control the client relationship, the pricing, the packaging, and the follow-on remediation conversation.
One pentest credit covers one approved engagement scope, such as an external, web, internal, or cloud pentest for one client. The exact assets are confirmed before launch. Large, complex, or multi-environment scopes may require more than one credit, but you will know that before the engagement starts. Each pentest includes one retest of the same scope.
No. PentX was built so MSPs can deliver pentesting without hiring a dedicated offensive-security engineer. Your team defines the client scope and reviews the output; PentX handles reconnaissance, exploitation, validation, evidence collection, and reporting.
PentX validates findings with reproducible exploit evidence. For clients that require named human accountability, a CREST-certified senior engineer can review and co-sign the report before delivery. This is useful for cyber insurance, regulated clients, auditors, and enterprise sign-off.
With 10-pack pricing, your delivery cost can be €250 per pentest. You resell the engagement at your own client price and keep the margin. Many MSPs also generate follow-on revenue from remediation, retesting, compliance support, managed security upgrades, and vCISO services.
Yes. PentX reports can support cyber insurance reviews, vendor security reviews, and compliance-driven evidence requests. For higher-assurance situations, you can add a CREST-certified engineer co-sign.
A typical external engagement can complete in hours once the scope is approved. New partners can usually move from signup to their first client-ready quote within days.
Each pentest includes one retest of the same scope. After remediation, you can rerun the test, verify what was fixed, and deliver retest evidence to the client.
