Cooperation Models ScienceSoft Offers
ScienceSoft offers two options for cooperation:
One-time security testing
To get impartial security evaluation without vendor lock-in. This cooperation approach may be helpful in forming an opinion on the vendor and making a decision regarding further cooperation with them.
Managed security testing
To stay constantly aware of occurring security vulnerabilities. In this case, after gathering the details on your IT infrastructure during the first security testing project, we proceed with conducting needed security testing services on a regular basis.
