Melbourne's Practical Choice for Manual Penetration Testing

Melbourne is one of the strongest tech ecosystems in Australia. From CBD-based SaaS startups around Collins Street and Southbank to enterprise IT teams in Docklands, fintechs in Cremorne and healthtech firms in Parkville, every Melbourne business processing customer data is now expected to have evidence of regular penetration testing on file. The combination of the Notifiable Data Breaches scheme, APRA CPS 234 for financial firms, Privacy Act obligations and increasingly tough enterprise procurement questionnaires means Melbourne CISOs need pentest evidence that holds up under audit.

Codesecure Solutions delivers manual, OSCP-led penetration testing to Melbourne businesses from our Chennai pentest practice. Every Melbourne engagement is run by a named consultant under a signed Australian-law NDA, with daily updates during AEST or AEDT working hours and a final report mapped to OWASP Top 10, OWASP ASVS, ACSC Essential Eight, APRA CPS 234 and ISO 27001. Pricing is published in clear AUD bands so Melbourne procurement can budget without a long sales cycle.

Frequently Asked Questions

Three reasons: senior consultants, transparent AUD pricing and same-day responsiveness during AEST or AEDT hours. Local Melbourne firms charge AUD 15,000 to 40,000 for the same scope of web application pentest, often with junior testers and weeks of waiting. Codesecure delivers OSCP-led testing for AUD 4,500 to 12,000 with named consultants, signed Australian-law NDA, daily updates during your working day and reports that hold up under audit. Many Melbourne customers choose us because we treat them like our only client, not like a routine ticket.

Customer data does not leave your environment unless absolutely required for testing. When required, it is held in an encrypted vault under your control with access limited to named consultants on the engagement, deleted 90 days after report sign-off and confirmed in writing. Every Melbourne engagement runs under a signed Australian-law NDA, and we are happy to add specific data residency clauses for clients with strict offshore data restrictions or APRA-style data localisation needs.

Yes. Our pentesters are available during the full AEST and AEDT working day for daily Slack or Teams updates, scope clarification calls, retest sessions and report walkthroughs.
