Our PTaaS Services

Manual security testing and adversary simulation designed to expose weaknesses across your most important attack surfaces.

Network Testing

DeepSeas tests external and internal network infrastructure, Active Directory, APIs, wireless systems, cloud environments, and physical access points to reveal attack paths automated tools can miss.

Cloud Testing

Cloud penetration testing examines identity, access, configurations, exposed services, APIs, secrets, logging, detection coverage, and boundaries across IaaS, PaaS, SaaS, and connected environments.

Application Testing

Manual testing of web applications, mobile applications, and APIs identifies authentication, authorization, session handling, business logic, input handling, and data exposure weaknesses.

Social Engineering

Phishing, vishing, smishing, and physical testing evaluate how people, processes, and technical controls respond to realistic attempts to obtain sensitive information or access.

Red Teaming

Human-led red team and adversary emulation engagements simulate realistic attacker tradecraft to test detection, response, and the ability to protect defined business objectives.

Offensive Security

Multi-vector offensive security combines controlled attack simulations and penetration testing to identify and expose weaknesses before malicious actors can exploit them.

Human-Led Testing

Find Weaknesses Before Attackers Do

DeepSeas PTaaS uses ethical hackers and real attacker tradecraft rather than relying on checkbox scans alone. Testing can cover networks, cloud environments, applications, APIs, people, physical access, and adversary pathways. Findings include evidence, risk context, and practical remediation guidance, helping security and leadership teams understand which weaknesses create meaningful exposure and where defensive controls should be improved.
