White Label Penetration Testing for the Channel

Imagine having a top-tier cybersecurity team on call, ready to launch in-depth security tests for your clients, all under your own brand. That’s white label penetration testing. Instead of spending a fortune to build your own team, you partner with a specialized firm that does all the heavy lifting for you. Your client sees you as the expert who solved their security problems.

What is White Label Penetration Testing?

White label penetration testing lets your MSP or vCISO practice offer critical services like manual pentesting for SOC 2 or HIPAA compliance without the huge operational cost. The partnership is simple: we handle the technical work, and you deliver the final, branded report to your client. This model provides an affordable, fast solution backed by our certified OSCP, CEH, and CREST experts.

This is all about growing your service offerings and revenue without a huge upfront investment. You get instant access to serious talent and a proven testing methodology, immediately leveling up what you can do. For your clients, it means they get the security validation they need for compliance and risk assessment directly from you, the partner they already trust.

How the White Label Partner Model Works

The process is designed to be simple and keep you in control. Instead of sending clients to a third party (and a potential competitor), you own the entire engagement. This makes your client relationships stronger and your services stickier.

Here’s how it works:

• You own the relationship and all communication.
• We act as your silent, channel-only partner in the background. We never compete with you.
• You deliver a comprehensive report with your logo on it.

Demand for security testing is exploding. The white box penetration testing market alone was valued at over $4.5 billion in 2020 and is only getting bigger. You can discover more about the market's trajectory to understand this growth. By partnering with us, you turn an operational challenge into a serious revenue opportunity, meeting client demands for frameworks like PCI DSS and ISO 27001.

Why MSPs Need a White Label Pentesting Partner

Your clients are being asked for penetration tests more and more, usually for compliance standards like SOC 2, HIPAA, and PCI DSS. This puts Managed Service Providers (MSPs) and virtual CISOs (vCISOs) in a tricky spot. You know they need it, but how do you deliver?

Building your own pentesting team is expensive and time-consuming. Referring clients to another security firm is risky, as they might try to steal your client. The traditional options for an MSP or a GRC company are full of problems.

This is where a strategic, channel-only partner changes the game. A white label penetration testing partnership is the perfect middle ground. It lets you meet client demand without the risk or the insane cost. A white label partner is an extension of your team, doing the expert-level testing so you can deliver the final, branded report.

The Problem with Old Pentesting Models

The demand for penetration testing is growing fast. The market is projected to jump from $1.92 billion in 2023 to nearly $7 billion by 2032. This growth is driven by real-world compliance mandates and cyber threats. You can read the full research on the penetration testing market to see the numbers.

Partnering for white label penetration testing transforms your business. You can add a high-margin revenue stream as a reseller without the overhead. You also solidify your client relationships by solving their compliance and risk assessment problems directly. Offering manual pentesting also enhances your brand authority, positioning you as a security expert.

The best part is peace of mind. With a true channel-only partner, you never have to worry about them competing with you. It’s a real partnership built on trust, helping you meet modern compliance demands for PCI DSS and ISO 27001.

Benefits of Our Channel-Only Pentesting Partnership

So, what makes a white label penetration testing partnership worth it? It comes down to three things: affordability, speed, and quality. Our entire business is built for the channel, which means we’ve eliminated the bloated enterprise pricing common in this industry.

This structure gives you direct access to affordable manual pentesting that you can resell at a healthy margin. It turns a client requirement into a genuine profit center for your business. You solve your client's compliance headaches without blowing up their budget or killing your own bottom line.

We Deliver Speed That Meets Compliance Deadlines

We also deliver reports fast. When your client faces a tight deadline for an ISO 27001 audit or needs a SOC 2 report to close a deal, waiting weeks is not an option. Long lead times from traditional firms create friction and can jeopardize your client's business goals.

Our process is designed for speed, so you can confidently hand over a comprehensive report right when they need it. This makes you look like a hero and solidifies your role as a responsive partner. We handle the heavy lifting so you can focus on serving your clients.

Quality Backed By Elite Pentester Certifications

Most importantly, you don't have to sacrifice quality for speed and affordability. Our pentesting team is not just running automated scanners. Our testers hold elite, globally-recognized certifications that prove they know how to find vulnerabilities that automated tools miss.

Our focus on manual pentesting means every engagement is thorough. Our team holds certifications that prove their skill:

• OSCP (Offensive Security Certified Professional): The gold standard for hands-on hacking.
• CEH (Certified Ethical Hacker): Shows a deep understanding of attacker tools and techniques.
• CREST (Council of Registered Ethical Security Testers): An internationally respected accreditation ensuring quality and ethics.

Above all, we work for you. As a 100% channel-only provider, our mission is to make you successful. We will never sell directly to your clients or compete with you. This unwavering focus lets you build out your security services with total confidence. You can learn more by checking out our approach to secure testing services.

How To Resell Penetration Testing Services

So, how do you start selling white label penetration testing services? The process is very straightforward. It all starts with a quick chat to scope out your client's needs, whether for SOC 2 or HIPAA compliance.

After that conversation, you get a clear, fixed-price quote. You can then mark it up and present it to your client. This keeps you as the single point of contact and solidifies your role as their go-to advisor for security and compliance.

Once your client approves, our certified pentesters with OSCP and CEH credentials handle the manual pentesting behind the scenes. As far as your client knows, it's your team performing the risk assessment. We tackle the complex stuff so you can focus on managing client relationships.

Delivering Your Branded Penetration Test Report

When the testing is done, we give you a fully white-labeled report. You just add your company’s logo and branding before sending it to your client. The report is clear and actionable for everyone, from tech teams to executives.

The white-labeled report is a strategic tool. It provides concrete evidence of your client's security posture, which is essential for audits related to PCI DSS and ISO 27001. This report also opens the door for you to sell remediation consulting and other high-margin services.

Our goal is simple: remove all the complexity for you. As a reseller, you’re armed with everything you need to confidently sell and deliver top-tier penetration testing. For help with your sales motion, implementing actionable sales enablement best practices can make a huge difference. The white label pentesting model is built for growth.

Choosing Your White Label Pentesting Partner

Not every company offering white label penetration testing is a good partner. Who you choose says everything about your brand. A bad choice can jeopardize your clients' security and compliance status.

The first thing to confirm is a strict, channel-only policy. This is non-negotiable. It means they will never sell their services directly to your clients. A real partner works for you, not against you.

Next, you need to check who is doing the work. A provider is only as good as its testers. Ask for proof that their team holds legitimate certifications like OSCP, CEH, or CREST. These guarantee you're reselling work from actual experts, not just automated scan results.

A quality partner will always focus on manual pentesting, where a human expert finds complex flaws that automated tools miss. This is essential for meeting tough standards like SOC 2, HIPAA, and PCI DSS.

What a Good Pentesting Partner Provides

After confirming their team is legit, ask for a sample report. Is it something you’d be proud to put your logo on? A great report needs a clear executive summary and actionable technical details to fix the problems.

Finally, talk about speed. Compliance deadlines can be brutal. A partner that takes weeks to deliver a report could put your client's ISO 27001 audit in jeopardy. You need a partner built to move quickly without cutting corners on quality. To learn more, check out our guide on how to find the best pentest partner for your MSP.

Choosing the right white label penetration testing provider is about forming a strategic alliance. A great partner elevates your brand and strengthens your client relationships. Taking the time to vet a provider on their channel commitment, team certifications, methodology, report quality, and speed is an investment in your own success.

Vetting a Potential Pentesting Partner

When you're evaluating potential partners, use this checklist to ask the right questions and cover all your bases.

A partner who can confidently answer these questions is one worth considering. Don't settle for less—your reputation is on the line.
