Why Security Testing Matters in Chile
Chile's Cybersecurity Framework Law (Law 21,663) requires providers of essential services and operators of vital importance to manage cyber risks continuously, banks follow the CMF's RAN 20-10, and the new data protection law (Law 21,719) requires security measures from December 2026. Regular testing shows that your controls work.
We combine both sides of security testing: penetration tests, in which experienced testers attack your systems like a real adversary, and continuous vulnerability management, which detects new weaknesses on your perimeter between the tests and tracks them until they are fixed.
Penetration Testing
- External network testing — Internet-facing systems such as web servers, mail gateways, VPN endpoints and cloud services
- Internal network testing — Simulation of an attacker inside your network: segmentation, privilege escalation and lateral movement
- Web application and API testing — In-depth testing based on the OWASP Top 10 and OWASP API Security Top 10
- Mobile application testing — iOS and Android apps, including data storage, communication and authentication
- Cloud configuration review — Identity, network and storage settings in AWS, Azure and Google Cloud
- Social engineering — Controlled phishing simulations to test the security awareness of your employees
Vulnerability Management
- Continuous perimeter scanning — Automated scans of your internet-facing systems detect new vulnerabilities and misconfigurations
- Risk-based prioritisation — Findings rated by severity and exposure, so your team fixes what matters first
- Remediation tracking — Every finding becomes a task with an owner and a due date, verified by a re-scan
- Reporting — Trends and open risks for management, and evidence for auditors and customers
Requirements in Chile
Regular security testing helps you meet the requirements that apply to your organisation:
- Cybersecurity Framework Law (Law 21,663) — Continuous cybersecurity risk management and incident reporting to the ANCI for essential services and operators of vital importance
- CMF RAN 20-10 — Information security and cybersecurity management, including security testing, for entities supervised by the CMF
- Law 21,719 — Security measures for personal data, applicable from December 2026
- PCI DSS — Penetration testing and quarterly vulnerability scans for organisations that process payment card data
- ISO/IEC 27001 — Technical vulnerability management (Annex A 8.8) and security testing (Annex A 8.29)
How Does It Work?
Scope & Plan
We agree the scope, objectives and rules of engagement with your team. All testing is carried out under explicit written authorisation.
Test & Scan
Our testers combine manual techniques with professional tools, following OWASP, PTES and NIST SP 800-115, while scanning runs continuously.
Report & Retest
You receive an executive summary, technical findings and prioritised recommendations, and we retest to confirm the fixes.
