Ask HN: Which companies or consultants do you recommend for penetration testing?

4 points_virtu3 comments

A company I work for is currently looking into penetration testing our application:

- Which companies or consultants do you recommend?

- Do you have any advice for penetration testing in general?

Matasano was the defacto goto, it looks like they are part of this org now https://www.nccgroup.trust/us/our-services/security-consulti...

have to add that I've never done business with them, know about them primarily for their crypto pals challenge and microcorruption.com

Though I haven't done business with them, I ran into the team from Crowdcurity (now cobalt.io) at a bitcoin meetup a few years ago. Seemed like very solid guys, and their approach toward security was intriguing enough.
