Fix Your
Biggest Security
Risks Before They’re Exploited.
We identify your biggest weaknesses across apps, identity, and people and help you fix them with clear, prioritized actions
About Us
About Us
Security fails when it’s treated as a checklist.
Zero Bytes focuses on the exact places attackers start, move, and succeed: exposed applications, weak identity boundaries, and human driven entry points. We don’t flood teams with low value findings. We surface what can actually be exploited, explain why it matters, and help you shut it down.
Our approach is designed for teams shipping fast, operating under regulation, and answering to leadership that wants clear answers

Answers to Your Most Common Questions
Answers to Your Most Common Questions
Everything you need to know about getting started, using the platform, and unlocking its full potential.
What cybersecurity services does Zero Bytes provide?
Zero Bytes provides penetration testing, application security testing, external network assessments, identity and internal security assessments, phishing simulations, security awareness training, threat intelligence monitoring, cyber resilience programs, and compliance readiness support.
What is the difference between penetration testing and vulnerability scanning?
Vulnerability scanning identifies potential issues automatically, while penetration testing simulates real attacker behavior to prove what can actually be exploited. Zero Bytes focuses on exploitability, business impact, and real attack paths rather than raw vulnerability counts.
Do you offer web, API, and mobile application security testing?
Yes. Zero Bytes performs web application penetration testing, API security testing, and mobile application testing aligned with industry standards, including OWASP and MASVS, to identify exploitable flaws before attackers do.
How does identity and internal security testing work?
We assess identity systems, access controls, Active Directory, privilege escalation paths, and internal network segmentation to understand how attackers could move laterally and escalate access after an initial compromise.
Do you provide phishing simulations and security awareness training?
Yes. We run realistic phishing and social-engineering simulations and deliver role-based security awareness training for executives, finance, IT, and operations teams, with measurable improvements in phishing resilience.
What is a cyber resilience program?
A cyber resilience program is a phased engagement that combines penetration testing, remediation support, employee training, threat intelligence, and validation over time to deliver continuous and measurable risk reduction.
Can Zero Bytes help with ISO 27001 and PCI DSS compliance?
Yes. We support ISO 27001 and PCI DSS compliance through gap assessments, control alignment, technical hardening, and audit-ready evidence mapping that reduces findings and audit friction.
How long does a penetration test or assessment take?
Most penetration testing engagements take between one and four weeks depending on scope, complexity, and environment size. Cyber resilience programs typically run over multiple months for sustained improvement.
Will Zero Bytes help us fix the issues you find?
Yes. We provide clear remediation guidance, prioritization, and validation support to ensure vulnerabilities are fixed correctly and risk reduction can be proven.
Who should work with Zero Bytes?
Zero Bytes works with SaaS companies, financial institutions, regulated businesses, and growing organizations that need practical cybersecurity, real risk reduction, and defensible reporting for leadership and regulators.
