Penetration Testing in Craigsville, VA
Human-led penetration testing for Craigsville businesses and the systems they run on. Fixed price, audit-ready reports mapped to CMMC 2.0, and a free remediation retest.
Why a scan is not a penetration test
CyberFortify runs manual web, API, network and cloud penetration tests for Craigsville organizations, with findings mapped to CMMC 2.0 and the other frameworks Virginia businesses answer to.
The value of a penetration test is not the list of issues. It is the proof of which ones chain together into a real compromise. Organizations in Craigsville, part of Augusta County, operate within Virginia’s economy of government and defense, technology and data centers and shipbuilding, and the systems that run that work — customer-facing applications, the APIs beneath them and the networks they sit on — are exactly what CyberFortify is engaged to test.
The findings that change a roadmap are almost never the ones a tool ranks highest. In Craigsville engagements they are the quiet ones: a session that survives a password reset, a role that can read another tenant, a bucket reachable without the app in front of it. Those take a person to find.
The threats facing Craigsville organizations
Virginia’s economy is not one thing, and neither is its risk. These are the sectors we most often test for Craigsville organizations, and what an attacker goes after in each.
Defense and aerospace suppliers
Defense contractors and aerospace suppliers handle controlled unclassified information and, often, export-controlled technical data under ITAR and EAR. CMMC 2.0 and NIST SP 800-171 now gate the ability to hold DoD contracts at all, and a single subcontractor is a documented path into a much larger program.
We test the boundary protecting controlled unclassified information, the segmentation and access controls NIST SP 800-171 requires, and the insider and exfiltration paths that export-controlled data demands attention to — producing evidence a C3PAO can use.
Data centers and cloud
Data-center and cloud-infrastructure operators hold other organizations’ workloads and data, which makes their management planes, tenant-isolation and physical-logical boundaries unusually high-value. A single control-plane weakness can affect every tenant at once.
We test management and orchestration interfaces, the isolation between tenants and environments, and the cloud IAM and automation that, if abused, would cross customer boundaries.
Penetration testing services for Craigsville
Most engagements combine two or three of these, scoped to where a compromise would cost Craigsville the most.
Web Application Penetration Testing
Broken access control, cross-tenant authorization and business logic, tested by hand.
Cloud Penetration Testing
The metadata-service, role-assumption and public-bucket mistakes attackers hunt for.
Mobile Application Penetration Testing
Local storage, certificate pinning and the API behind the app.
API Penetration Testing
Authorization and data-exposure testing for REST and GraphQL interfaces.
Network Penetration Testing
Whether your segmentation holds once someone is already inside the network.
OT & ICS Penetration Testing
The IT/OT boundary, tested without putting operations at risk.
Evidence for the frameworks Virginia businesses answer to
Given Virginia’s government and defense, technology and data centers, and shipbuilding, these are the frameworks a Craigsville engagement most often produces evidence for. One test, evidence for all of them.
CMMC 2.0
Testing the boundary that protects controlled unclassified information.
FedRAMP
The penetration testing a 3PAO assessment requires, done to spec.
SOC 2
Independent evidence for the Common Criteria and the vendor reviews that gate deals.
Organizations handling personal data in Virginia also fall under Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act (VCDPA). It does not name penetration testing, but it expects reasonable security to be verified rather than assumed — and after an incident, a recent test is the evidence that it was.
How a Craigsville engagement runs
The same sequence every time, so the result is defensible.
Testing aligns to PTES and NIST SP 800-115, application work follows OWASP, and exploitation maps to MITRE ATT&CK. Automated tooling enumerates the surface; a named tester confirms every finding by hand.
Findings your team can fix and your auditor accepts
Every finding is reproducible, scored in context, and tied to the control it defeats.
The example alongside is illustrative — not from a client engagement — to show how each issue is documented and mapped to CMMC 2.0 and the standards Virginia organizations answer to.
| Ref | Finding | Severity | CVSS |
|---|---|---|---|
| F-01 | IDOR exposes cross-tenant records | Critical | 9.1 |
| F-02 | Over-privileged service account | High | 8.2 |
| F-03 | Session persists after reset | Medium | 5.4 |
| F-04 | Verbose error disclosure | Low | 3.1 |
What sets a Craigsville engagement with us apart
A scan-and-report vendor
Automated output rebadged as a test. Severities the tool assigned, findings you cannot reproduce, no real attempt at authorization logic or privilege escalation — and a report your assessor hands back. The retest is a new invoice.
CyberFortify
A named tester who works the target by hand, chains findings to prove real impact, and writes them so a Craigsville engineer can fix them and an auditor can accept them. Fixed price, same-day critical escalation, retest included.
Penetration testing in Craigsville, answered
Does the team have to travel to Craigsville?
Most of it is remote. Application, API, cloud and external testing does not require us in the building, and that covers the majority of Virginia engagements. Where scope is internal network, wireless or physical, we arrange to be on-site and cost the travel transparently.
How is pricing set for a Craigsville engagement?
Price follows scope, not location. The variables are the number of applications, cloud accounts, live hosts and user roles in scope. After a 30-minute scoping call we return a fixed price, usually within the hour, and it does not change once work begins.
Can we hand the report straight to our assessor?
That is what the report is built for. Findings come with reproduction, CVSS scores and an explicit mapping to the control they defeat — commonly CMMC 2.0 for Virginia organizations — so your auditor can accept them without translation.
What do you focus on for Defense organizations?
We test the boundary protecting controlled unclassified information, the segmentation and access controls NIST SP 800-171 requires, and the insider and exfiltration paths that export-controlled data demands attention to — producing evidence a C3PAO can use. In a Craigsville engagement that usually starts with cui boundary and access gaps and works outward from there.
Is penetration testing mandated in Virginia?
Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act (VCDPA) sets a reasonable-security expectation rather than mandating a test explicitly. In practice a recent penetration test is how Virginia organizations evidence that the expectation was actually met.
Can you sign our vendor security questionnaire?
Yes. We complete SIG, CAIQ and custom questionnaires and can join the vendor review call. For Craigsville companies selling into larger enterprises, a current test plus a completed questionnaire is usually what unblocks the deal.
How soon can a Craigsville engagement start?
Lead time is usually one to two weeks once scope is set, less if an audit or customer deadline is pressing. The scoping call is where we lock the price and the date.
