01 / External attack simulation

A real penetration test. Fixed price. No sales calls.

Sign up with your work email. Starting from that domain, we map everything your organisation exposes to the internet and attack it the way a real adversary would, then come back with a written penetration test report.

02 / Why now

The attackers are getting help too.

AI is handing real offensive capability to people who never had it, and sharpening the ones who did. Reconnaissance, exploit-writing and scanning that used to take a skilled team days now runs in minutes, at scale, against everyone at once.

Criminal crews and state actors are the early adopters. The gap between a weakness being exposed and being exploited is closing fast, and when it closes on you it is not a slow leak. It is your operations, your data and your name, all at once.

Far better to find what's weak yourself, on your terms, than to learn it from someone who wants you gone.

Attack. Understand. Strengthen.
03 / How it works

An external test of your authorized domain.

No internal access, no credentials from you, no hints. We start from the same position an attacker on the internet starts from: your domain name.

See how we test, in detail
  1. 01

    Reconnaissance

    The listed hosts are minimum report coverage. Authorization also covers related customer-controlled subdomains discovered during testing.

  2. 02

    Exploitation

    We perform controlled, low-impact checks across the authorized domain and related customer-controlled subdomains and record the limitations and outcomes. Up to 2 business days of active testing in the standard scope.

  3. 03

    Report

    We prepare the complete report within 10 business days, including evidence and recommendations. Receive a free overview; optional payment unlocks full report delivery.

05 / Pricing

Standard SME scope · larger scopes quoted separately

1 000EUR

for the standard external test · excl. VAT

Own or advise several companies? Portfolio pricing on request.

Prices exclude VAT. Spanish IVA (21%) is added for customers in Spain. EU businesses with a valid VAT number are invoiced under reverse charge. Customers outside the EU pay no VAT.

The full pentest and complete report are prepared at no charge. Receive a free overview, then choose whether to buy delivery of the full report for 1 000 EUR.

Included

  • One primary domain and related customer-controlled subdomains. Starting hosts define minimum report coverage. The same full pentest is performed whether or not you buy the report.
  • Low-impact external checks of only the agreed hosts
  • Reviewed written report with evidence, limitations and recommendations

Scope and terms

  • Up to 2 business days of active testing; report within 10 business days of the agreed start
  • More hosts, other domains or unusually complex applications need a custom quote agreed before testing.
  • Free pentest and overview. Pay only to receive the full report

Out of scope

  • Denial-of-service or anything that degrades availability
  • Phishing or social engineering of your staff
  • Physical access and on-site testing
  • Internal testing, and testing with credentials you give us. We never receive passwords from you
  • Third-party SaaS you do not operate yourself
  • Other domain roots or third-party systems without authorization
  • Authenticated testing, supplied credentials and account/role testing unless separately agreed
06 / Authorization

We only test what you own.

A penetration test without authorization is an attack. Our sign-up is built so that the person requesting the test is demonstrably part of the organisation being tested.

  1. 01

    Your work email sets the target

    You sign up with a corporate address. That domain is our starting point: we discover the related domains and internet-facing assets your organisation owns, and the engagement letter lists exactly what we test.

  2. 02

    No free or shared mail providers

    Gmail, Outlook, iCloud, Proton and similar addresses are rejected at sign-up. A corporate domain ties the request to the organisation we test.

  3. 03

    Authorization comes later, in writing

    We review the lead, map what your organisation exposes to the internet, and send an engagement letter that lists minimum report coverage and authorizes related customer-controlled subdomains. The engagement letter carries an authorization link. Clicking it, as an authorized signatory, is what authorizes the test — nothing is tested before then.

Authorization terms

The same terms every customer confirms before we start, set out in the engagement letter and authorized by the link in it.

  1. 01The customer authorizes SCORE10 SL (EXTERNAL10) to assess the primary domain and related customer-controlled subdomains, including discoveries during testing, for 30 days from signature. Listed hosts define minimum report coverage; additional coverage is not guaranteed. Testing may begin immediately after signature.
  2. 02Testing may include low-impact vulnerability scanning and controlled validation within that scope. It will not intentionally damage data, lock out users or disrupt operations.
  3. 03Testing of third-party systems requires separate permission.
  4. 04Results are confidential and the customer may request that testing stops at any time.
07 / Who runs this
Jens Berlips

Founded by Jens Berlips.

EXTERNAL10 was founded by Jens Berlips, a serial entrepreneur and hands-on engineer. He co-founded and chairs ApoEx, and advises the SecureDNA Foundation on safeguarding DNA synthesis against misuse.

His return to building with AI is the same shift now arming attackers, and the reason EXTERNAL10 exists.

Your work email and company are all we need to start. Its domain is our starting point. One primary domain and related customer-controlled subdomains. Starting hosts define minimum report coverage. The same full pentest is performed whether or not you buy the report. The assessment and overview are free. Optional full report delivery costs 1 000 EUR excl. VAT. Payment does not change the testing.

Free and shared mail providers are not accepted.

Optional. Tell us your priorities or if you need more than the standard scope. We quote larger or more complex work and agree exact hosts and price before any testing.
