Penetration Testing
We find your security vulnerabilities before cyber attackers reach your systems. With MAV Cloud Penetration Testing (Pentest), your external network, internal network, web applications, Active Directory, wireless networks and critical systems are tested using an ethical hacking approach.

Our Penetration Testing service
By applying real-world attack scenarios, we identify vulnerabilities in your systems, classify them by risk level and prepare a detailed technical report. At the end of the test, we don’t just show you the vulnerabilities; we also explain in detail how to fix them.
Our pentest service is performed in line with OWASP, MITRE ATT&CK, PTES and NIST methodologies.

Penetration testing vs. vulnerability scanning
Vulnerability scanning uses automated tools to detect known weaknesses in systems and is repeated at regular intervals. Penetration testing, on the other hand, is a controlled attempt by an expert to determine whether the vulnerabilities found can actually be exploited and how far an attacker could get. The two are not alternatives; they complement each other.
| Criterion | Vulnerability scanning | Penetration testing |
|---|---|---|
| Method | Automated scanning | Manual, tool-assisted work by an expert |
| Frequency | Regular (e.g., monthly) | Periodically and after major changes |
| Output | List of vulnerabilities and risk levels | Exploitation scenarios, impact and remediation recommendations |
| Goal | Quickly see known vulnerabilities | Measure real-world resilience to attack |
For continuous visibility, our Vulnerability Scanning service is planned together with penetration testing for in-depth validation. Test types, the process and pricing factors are explained in our what is penetration testing guide.
Service assurance: Test scope, access credentials and findings reports are handled as confidential data. MAV Cloud operates ISO/IEC 27001 certified information security and ISO/IEC 27701 certified privacy information management systems (see our certifications).
Penetration testing prices: starting levels and typical ranges
The price of a penetration test depends on the number of targets, the test type (external network, internal network, web application) and the reporting required. The table below shows indicative starting levels and the range most projects fall into; prices exclude VAT.
| Test type | Starting price | Most projects |
|---|---|---|
| External network penetration test | From 35,000 TRY | 50,000 – 120,000 TRY |
| Web application penetration test | From 40,000 TRY | 60,000 – 150,000 TRY |
| Internal network and Active Directory test | From 80,000 TRY | 100,000 – 200,000 TRY |
| Full enterprise test (external + internal + web) | From 250,000 TRY | 300,000 – 700,000 TRY |
The final price is set in the quote once the number of IP addresses, applications and user roles is confirmed in a scoping call. The cost drivers are explained in the guide what is penetration testing.
Who is Penetration Testing for?
- Organizations that want an independent validation of their security
- Companies that need a penetration test report for customers or audits
- Teams testing new applications or infrastructure before going live
- Organizations that want to verify previous findings have been fixed
Frequently asked questions about Penetration Testing
What does a penetration test cover?
Different scopes can be defined, such as external networks, internal networks, web applications and wireless networks. The scope is finalized together with you before testing begins.
What do we receive at the end of the test?
You receive a report that ranks findings by risk level and includes exploitation steps and concrete remediation recommendations.
Will the test disrupt our systems?
We define the rules of engagement and the testing window together; no step that could put production systems at risk is carried out without your prior approval.
Is a penetration test the same as a pen test?
Yes. “Pen test” is simply short for penetration test; both mean an authorized specialist running controlled attack scenarios against your systems.
