Post-Incident Web App Assessment
Excessive data exposure: API responses leaked transaction metadata, including precise geolocation, enabling real-world tracking of users.
Outcome. Surfaced the exposure and hardening gaps, prioritized by how readily an attacker could chain them, and delivered fixes plus a retest to confirm closure.

Why Invadel
Charlotte is the second-largest banking center in the country, and the fintechs, vendors, and service firms around the banks inherit their expectations. We test to the standards bank examiners, vendor-management teams, and sponsors apply.
Raleigh, Durham, and Research Triangle Park software and life-sciences companies sell to enterprises and partners that read SOC 2 reports and diligence findings closely. We scope tests around release cycles and offer recurring programs.
Every engagement is fixed-scope and fixed-price, agreed in writing before we start. Remote delivery means no travel charge, and a North Carolina client pays the same published price as a New York one.
Industries we serve
North Carolina pairs a banking capital in Charlotte with a research and technology corridor in the Triangle, healthcare systems that serve the whole Southeast, and energy and manufacturing across the state.
Uptown and South End institutions, fintechs, and the vendors that serve them, meeting examiner, sponsor, and SOC 2 expectations.
Charlotte and Triangle systems and physician groups testing patient portals, clinical applications, and networks to HIPAA.
Research Triangle and Charlotte product companies closing SOC 2 audits and enterprise security reviews.
Triangle companies protecting research data, manufacturing systems, and the platforms partners and regulators inspect.
Operators securing corporate networks, remote sites, and the boundaries around control systems.
Statewide manufacturers, distributors, and retailers securing OT, warehouse systems, and PCI DSS scope.
How we test each sector, with the frameworks and prices that apply: penetration testing by industry, including fintech, law firms, healthcare, SaaS, and manufacturing.

On the ground in Charlotte
Charlotte’s economy is organized around its banks, and the security expectations radiate outward. A fintech with a bank sponsor, a vendor in a bank’s supply chain, and a law or accounting firm serving bank clients all get asked for the same thing: a recent manual penetration test by an independent firm, reported with severities, remediation status, and an attestation letter. The Triangle adds SOC 2 audits and life-sciences diligence to the mix.
North Carolina’s Identity Theft Protection Act sets the breach notification duty and requires safeguards for the Social Security numbers and personal information businesses hold, and it leaves the security standard to the industry rules that apply. For most companies here that means bank examiner expectations, HIPAA, PCI DSS, or SOC 2, and a penetration test is the evidence all of them share.
We serve companies across the state, including Uptown Charlotte, South End, Ballantyne, Lake Norman, Raleigh, Durham, Cary, Research Triangle Park, and Greensboro, from the same team. Testing is delivered remotely from our New York office, with on-site work arranged when a scope needs a person in the building.

See the pricing pageA dated report from an independent firm covering the systems that touch the bank’s data, findings rated by severity, evidence that the serious ones were fixed and verified, and usually an attestation letter or a summary they can file. A web application or API test plus an external network test answers most reviews.
Third-party penetration testingYes. We test online banking with the platform vendor’s authorization, internal networks from a branch foothold, and staff through phishing campaigns, and we report in the form examiners expect.
Penetration testing for banks and credit unionsA web application penetration test of the product with accounts in every role, usually paired with a cloud or external network test. Reports are formatted for SOC 2 auditors and compatible with Vanta and Drata, and a recurring program keeps the evidence current as you ship.
SOC 2 penetration testingBy arrangement. Most engagements are fully remote, and internal network tests run through a small device we ship to your office. When a scope needs a person in the building, we travel from New York and agree it in the proposal.
