Comprehensive vulnerability assessment through authorized simulated attacks. Expert ethical hacking with court-admissible documentation and 24/7 emergency response across Los Angeles, Orange County, and San Diego.
Proven vulnerability discovery and security validation across Southern California
Penetration testing is the most direct way to know whether your organization’s defenses actually work — before an attacker finds out for you. Rather than relying on theoretical frameworks or checkbox compliance, a professional penetration test by a licensed investigator actively probes your systems using the same techniques real adversaries use. Xpozzed Digital Forensics delivers penetration testing under California BSIS PI License No. 190161, meaning every finding is legally documented and admissible in California court proceedings.
Joseph Hanna, founder of Xpozzed and a Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) with CISSP certification, personally leads every penetration testing engagement. With over 15 years of offensive security experience, Joseph has conducted penetration tests for law firms, healthcare networks, financial institutions, and technology companies across Los Angeles, Orange County, and San Diego. As a Computer Forensics Qualified Expert Witness in California courts, he understands exactly what evidentiary standards your penetration test report must meet if litigation follows a breach.
Penetration testing is also a legal compliance requirement under SOC 2, HIPAA, and PCI-DSS for most California businesses — and insurers increasingly require documented test results before issuing cyber liability coverage. Schedule a free consultation to scope your penetration test today.
Penetration testing — also called a pen test or ethical hacking — is a simulated cyberattack conducted by a certified professional with your explicit written authorization. The goal is to identify exploitable vulnerabilities in your network, web applications, cloud infrastructure, or physical security before a malicious actor finds them. The result is a detailed report documenting every vulnerability found, its risk rating, and specific remediation steps.
The MITRE ATT&CK Framework — the industry standard for documenting adversary tactics — forms the foundation of every Xpozzed penetration test methodology. By mapping findings to MITRE ATT&CK techniques, our reports speak directly to the language of your security team, insurers, regulators, and, if necessary, California courts.
Every penetration test conducted by Xpozzed Digital Forensics includes a signed scope-of-work and rules-of-engagement document, full chain-of-custody evidence handling, and a court-ready final report signed by Joseph Hanna.
