Automated scan, penetration test or audit?
Three different things that are often confused. We run penetration tests and help you prepare for audits; we are not an auditor.
| Automated scan | Penetration test | Audit or certification | |
|---|---|---|---|
| What it is | A tool checks for known weaknesses | Security testers try to break in, manually and with tools | An independent auditor checks your controls against a standard |
| What it finds | Known issues and missing patches | Real, exploitable weaknesses, including logic and access flaws | Gaps in policies, processes and evidence |
| What you get | An automated list, often with false positives | A report with proof, CVSS severity and fixes, plus a free retest | An audit report or certificate |
| Who does it | Your team or any provider | Testers you authorise in writing, such as UnFoldMart | Accredited auditors only (not UnFoldMart) |
| Best for | Frequent checks between tests | Before launches, big contracts and audits, and at least once a year | Proving compliance, e.g. SOC 2, PCI DSS, ISO/IEC 27001 |
From finding to fixed
Every finding comes with steps to reproduce and a fix. The retest is free.

How to choose a cyber security company in Toronto
Six checks before you sign, whoever you hire.
Written authorisation and scope
Testing should start only after the system owner signs the scope, window and rules.
UnFoldMart: Signed scope and window before any test.
Manual testing, not just a scan
Ask how much of the work is manual and which methods they follow.
UnFoldMart: Manual testing aligned to OWASP ASVS and OWASP MAS.
A report your developers can use
Findings with proof, severity and fix steps.
UnFoldMart: CVSS severity, steps to reproduce and fixes, explained on a call.
A retest after fixes
Is a retest included, and do you get written confirmation?
UnFoldMart: Free retest and a retest letter.
Honest about compliance
A tester is not an auditor. Be wary of anyone promising a certificate.
UnFoldMart: Readiness support for SOC 2 and PCI DSS; we never certify.
Careful with your data
How test data, credentials and the report are handled.
UnFoldMart: Only the data the scope needs.
Black box, grey box or white box?
| Grey box | Black box | White box | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Access for testers | Test accounts and some documentation | No inside knowledge | Full access to code and design |
| Simulates | A user or partner with an account | An outside attacker | A deep review with insider knowledge |
| Coverage | Good balance; the usual choice | Lower; time goes into discovery | Highest |
| Best for | Most web apps and APIs | Checking what is exposed to the internet | Critical systems and code-level review |

PIPEDA breach reporting
Organisations subject to PIPEDA must report breaches of security safeguards that pose a real risk of significant harm to the Privacy Commissioner of Canada, notify affected people as soon as feasible, and keep records of all breaches for two years.
Official source: Privacy breaches (priv.gc.ca) ↗Unauthorized use of computer
Section 342.1 of the Criminal Code makes it an offence to obtain computer services or intercept or use a computer system fraudulently and without colour of right. That is why every test we run starts with written authorization.

Frequently asked questions
Cyber security in Toronto: before you book a call.
Do you have an office in Toronto?
No. We serve Toronto from our nearest office in Vancouver, at 555 Burrard St, V7X 1M8 Vancouver. Meet us in person at our Vancouver office or at any of our 10 offices, or by video.
How much does a penetration test cost in Toronto?
We don't publish prices. Cost depends on the systems in scope, testing depth, how much manual testing is needed, the compliance evidence you need and your deadline. After a short brief or a free 30-minute call, you get a written scope and a tailored quote.
How long does a penetration test take?
Typically: scope and sign-off about a week, testing 1 to 4 weeks depending on scope, and the report within a week after testing, explained on a call. The free retest runs when your fixes are ready. These are ranges, not guarantees.
Black box, grey box or white box?
Black box: no inside knowledge, like an outsider. Grey box: test accounts and some documentation, the usual choice. White box: full access to code and design, for the deepest review.
Can you get us SOC 2, PCI DSS or ISO 27001 certified?
No. We are not an auditor or certification body. We offer readiness support: a gap review, help putting controls and evidence in place, and help answering customer security questionnaires.
Is a retest included?
Yes. After you fix the findings, we retest them for free and give you a retest letter that shows what is closed.
Do you need written permission before testing?
Yes, always. Testing starts only after the owner of the systems signs the scope, the testing window and the rules. If a system is hosted or run by someone else, their rules apply too.
What must we do after a privacy breach in Canada?
Under PIPEDA, breaches of security safeguards that pose a real risk of significant harm must be reported to the Privacy Commissioner of Canada, affected people must be notified as soon as feasible, and records of all breaches must be kept for two years. Your legal adviser confirms what applies to you.
How do time zones work with your team?
Toronto is served from our Vancouver office. The clock on this page shows the current local time in both places and the office-hours overlap, and calls are booked in your working hours.
Who works on our project, and how do we communicate?
Projects are led by UnFoldMart from our international offices, with a small dedicated team. Calls and reports are in English, and critical issues are flagged at once.
