Penetration Testing in Peru
Penetration testing for Peruvian companies: we find vulnerabilities before attackers do, aligned with Law 29733 and the SBS's requirements.
Peru is undergoing rapid digitalization: e-commerce, mobile banking and digital wallets became mainstream within a few years, especially from Lima. That growth has widened the attack surface: ransomware, fraud and personal-data leaks are now daily risks for mid-sized and large companies.
A penetration test simulates a real, controlled attack against your applications, networks and infrastructure to discover where an adversary would get in and what they could compromise. Unlike an automated scan, we combine tooling with manual techniques that catch business-logic flaws, and deliver a report prioritized by real risk with concrete remediation steps.
Penetration testing and Data Protection Law 29733
Law No. 29733 on Personal Data Protection —and its new Regulation (Supreme Decree 016-2024-JUS)— requires companies to adopt security measures to protect the personal data they handle, under the supervision of the National Authority for Personal Data Protection (ANPDP). An incident exposing personal data can lead to sanction proceedings and fines, on top of reputational damage. Regular penetration testing is one of the strongest ways to demonstrate due diligence: it shows the organization actively assesses and fixes its vulnerabilities, not just that it has policies on paper.
Financial sector: the SBS's rules
If you are an entity supervised by the Superintendency of Banking, Insurance and Pension Funds (SBS), its information-security and cybersecurity rules require technical assessments and vulnerability management of your systems and digital channels. We scope the pentest to cover the surfaces the regulator and your customers care about most: digital banking and channels, payment APIs, authentication and the exposure of sensitive data. The deliverable is built to hold up in a conversation with auditors, risk teams and the board.

Preguntas frecuentes — Peru
There is no single rule requiring it of all companies. However, Law 29733 requires implementing security measures over personal data, and the SBS imposes stricter controls on the financial system. In practice, penetration testing is the standard way to demonstrate that those measures are effective, not just declarative.
Law 29733 and its regulation require security measures to protect personal data. A pentest assesses whether those measures actually withstand an attack and produces documented evidence of the assessment and its remediation, useful to support the company's due diligence before the ANPDP, clients and partners.
Yes. We work with companies across Peru remotely, with the advantage of a shared time zone. We define the scope, testing windows and rules of engagement together before starting.
The recommended practice is at least once a year and, in addition, after significant changes: new applications, cloud migrations, payment integrations or infrastructure restructuring. For critical or fast-changing systems, a semiannual cadence greatly reduces the exposure window.
