We secure systems that absolutely cannot fail.
A client entrusted us with a mission-critical election technology platform rated high business criticality. Over roughly two to three weeks, our engineers ran a deep, hands-on vulnerability assessment and penetration test — combining a range of cybersecurity tools with manual testing across multiple user profiles and roles. We identified numerous high-severity vulnerabilities, walked the client through locking them down, and delivered documented proof they could show their own client that a full assessment and pen test had been completed.
The final result after remediation: zero open findings across every severity level — critical, high, medium, and low. That is the long-haul, documented value we deliver on every engagement.
Mission-critical election platform
An election technology platform rated high business criticality — the kind of system where an outage or breach is unacceptable.
~2–3 weeks of deep, hands-on testing
Our engineers spent roughly two to three weeks on-site against the live platform, not a scan-and-leave checklist.
Full toolchain + manual testing
A range of cybersecurity tooling combined with hands-on manual testing across multiple user profiles and roles.
Numerous high-severity vulnerabilities found
We identified numerous high-severity vulnerabilities and walked the client through locking every one of them down.
Documented proof of completion
A documented report the client could show their own client as proof that a full assessment and penetration test had been completed.
Zero open findings after remediation
Final result: zero open findings across every severity level — critical, high, medium, and low.
Final result — zero open findings

An outside-in technology assessment before an acquisition
- The situation
- A private equity firm weighing an acquisition needed to know what technology and cyber risk it would inherit.
- What we did
- We assessed the target the way an attacker would, from the outside: its technology, hardware and software, its vulnerability exposure, and the exposure of its executives, including dark web searches and what that could mean for brand, equity value and customer loyalty. We priced the cost of remediation and ranked the risks.
- The outcome
- We identified upwards of $2 million in remediation cost the buyer would otherwise have inherited. It became part of the negotiation, and the firm made its investment decision knowing the blind spots and what to watch for after closing.
A full assessment of a cloud platform with payments and property data
- The situation
- A company with a homegrown, cloud-based application for owners of commercial properties offered payment modules and access to property information. It needed a full vulnerability assessment.
- What we did
- We assessed the platform end to end: the cloud environment, the API connectors and integrations, the payment modules, and how property information is protected and accessed.
- The outcome
- A prioritized view of exposure across the application and its connectors, with a remediation plan the team could act on.
Identity and access management
Supported a client through a major identity and access management migration: selecting the platform, implementing it, and driving the migration.
Nonprofit · Data security
Helped a nonprofit classify its data and secure it as it was replicated to the cloud, with cloud and data security posture management (DSPM), and helped run the security operation.
Financial services
Large-scale application and vulnerability assessments for critical-path financial services technology: payments, underwriting and transaction security.
Healthcare
Assessed a hospital environment, including medical devices and equipment, medical communications and proprietary technology, to make sure wearables and instrumentation were not vulnerable.
Good. We do not replace them. We check their work.
They build and run it. We check it.
Your IT provider keeps the business running. An independent check answers a different question: would it hold up when an insurer, customer or regulator asks for proof? A firm should not grade its own work.
Your IT team gets findings it can act on.
We walk every finding through with your IT provider and hand over a prioritized fix list. We work alongside them. We do not replace them.
The person who signs gets evidence.
Whoever signs the insurance application or a customer questionnaire is vouching for the answers. If an application says a control is on everywhere and a breach shows it was not, an insurer can deny the claim for misrepresentation, even when the gap was unintentional.

A U.S. security firm that puts price, scope and results in writing.
Before they sign, security buyers ask the same four questions. Here is how we answer each one, in terms you can hold us to.
What exactly do I get, and what does it cost?
A fixed price before you speak to anyone in sales: $4,500 for the Cyber Insurance & Security Questionnaire Readiness Review, and penetration testing from $5,000. The scope is written down and agreed before any work starts.
Will an insurer, customer or auditor take it seriously?
You get a plain-language report with a prioritized fix list, plus a letter stating what was reviewed, when, and what was found. It is written to be handed to insurers, customers and auditors.
Does anyone check that the fixes worked?
Every penetration test includes a live walkthrough of each finding with your team and one retest of the fixed items within 60 days of delivery. Our tests combine tooling with manual testing by a person.
What if it is not good enough?
If the review does not meet the scope we agreed in writing, we make it right or refund the fee. Tell us within 14 days of delivery.
A note on vendors. IntelliKor is a channel partner for some security vendors. Assessments are scoped, priced and reported separately from any product, and we tell you about any vendor relationship that could affect a recommendation.
The people doing the work hold these credentials
Held by members of the IntelliKor team. Details available on request.
- Nearly 30 years of IT experience on the team, including enterprise security and network engineering at major financial institutions.
- Years of hands-on IT and security experience in healthcare.
- Hands-on cybersecurity instruction at university and community level, including the Cisco CCNA and CCNP curriculum, with Cisco, Microsoft and Amazon labs.
One team covers penetration testing, application and API security (web, mobile and source code review), cloud and container security, vCISO and compliance readiness (HIPAA, PCI DSS, NIST CSF, ISO 27001, CIS Controls), third-party risk and security operations, so you are not coordinating separate vendors.
Where this work has been put to the test
- An election platform taken from numerous high-severity findings to zero open findings, with a 65-page remediation plan.
- Due-diligence findings for a private equity buyer, used in the price negotiation.
- Application assessments run at scale for a financial services firm.
