Comparing Task-Based Testing To Traditional Consultancy

Traditional Testing

It might take five days to test and write a PDF report. Six months of development might then introduce a new registration process and user role, and might address the six vulnerabilities originally uncovered, meaning that another five days are needed to repeat the process.

Cytix

We can perform testing in line with your development roadmap; simply schedule the registration process task or user role tests until you’re ready. The results can then be delivered directly to your team and you can draw down from your validation credits to get vulnerabilities retested at no additional cost.

Return on Investment

In this example, Cytix would save you as much as 50% on the overall cost of testing across a year. Plus, the costing for testing and validations was all up-front so you could be confident about how your testing programme would impact your budget.

The results were then fed directly into the development team, reducing management overhead and streamlining the overall process.

What’s more, the incremental changes to the environment were scheduled for soon after each component was released, meaning that you didn’t have to wait for your next testing cycle to have confidence in your security.
