Why do blockchain projects need penetration testing beyond smart contract audits?
“Smart contract audits cover on-chain code. Penetration testing covers everything else — web applications, APIs, cloud infrastructure, mobile apps, and the middleware connecting on-chain and off-chain systems. Several of the largest blockchain exploits in history originated from off-chain vulnerabilities, not smart contract bugs. A comprehensive security posture requires both.”
View in the company profileDoes Hexens perform APT simulation and red teaming?
“Yes. Hexens conduct full-scope adversarial simulations replicating the tactics of advanced persistent threat actors. Unlike a standard penetration test that focuses on individual vulnerability discovery, APT simulation chains together reconnaissance, initial access, lateral movement, privilege escalation, and data exfiltration into multi-stage attack campaigns — testing how your entire security stack responds to a determined adversary operating over days or weeks.”
View in the company profileWhat certifications do Hexens’ penetration testing engineers hold?
“Our offensive security engineers hold OSCP, OSCE, OSWE, and other professional certifications. Beyond certifications, our team includes CTF champions and bug bounty leaderboard veterans with track records of discovering vulnerabilities in high-value targets. Every engineer directs frontier AI models as force multipliers — extending the reach and depth of every engagement beyond what manual-only testing can achieve.”
