A 48-hour penetration test from Sumrite, for when the deadline is real.
When a security review is blocking a deal or an audit date is close, Sumrite delivers an expert-verified VAPT report for a scoped web application or API within 48 hours of testing starting. Fast does not mean scanner-only.

A 48-hour penetration test is an expert-led VAPT of a tightly scoped web application or API where the report is delivered within 48 hours of testing starting. Sumrite reaches that speed by fixing the scope and test accounts before day one, running testers in parallel on the same target, and writing findings as they are verified, not by replacing manual testing with a scanner.
What fits in 48 hours, and what does not
| Fits in 48 hours | Needs longer |
|---|---|
| One web application with a few user roles | Several applications, or many roles and tenants |
| One REST or GraphQL API with documentation | Large API estates or undocumented legacy versions |
| A staging environment that mirrors production | Fragile or production-only systems with tight test windows |
| A single compliance mapping (SOC 2, ISO 27001 or similar) | Internal networks, red team operations or IoT devices |
How Sumrite delivers a report in 48 hours
- Scope locked before day one. URLs, roles, test accounts and rules of engagement are agreed and the NDA signed before the clock starts.
- Testers in parallel. More than one tester works the same target, split by area: authentication, access control, input handling and business logic.
- Findings written as they are verified. Each issue is reproduced, rated by CVSS and written up the moment it is confirmed.
- Review and issue. A second person reviews the report before it is issued in your company name.
- Retest. Once you fix the findings, they are retested and the report is updated.

Continuous testingFrequently asked questions
Is a 48-hour pentest just an automated scan?
No. Every finding is reproduced and verified by a tester. Speed comes from preparing the scope in advance and testing in parallel, not from replacing manual testing.
When does the 48 hours start?
When testing starts, after the scope, NDA, test accounts and authorisation are in place.
Is the retest included?
Yes. Fixed findings are retested and the report is updated at no extra cost on standard engagements.
Can a larger scope be done quickly too?
Larger scopes take longer, but they can be split so the most important application is reported first. The timeline is confirmed in the quote.
