Vulnerability Assessment
A thorough, expert-validated assessment of the vulnerabilities across your systems, prioritised by real risk. The efficient way to understand your exposure and know exactly what to fix first — the ideal starting point for many organisations.

What this means. An authorized Solvex administrator registered and approved this exact public identity. What it does not. Solvex has not inspected the account on the platform, and this is not the platform's own verification.
Solvex specialists never ask for your passwords, recovery phrases, one-time codes, or payments to a personal account. Work, scope and invoices are agreed in writing through the official channels on this site.
Signed authorization required. This engagement is performed only against systems you own or are contractually authorized to have tested, under an agreed scope. See the responsible testing policy.
What's covered
- Systematic vulnerability identification across in-scope assets
- Authenticated and unauthenticated assessment
- Expert validation to remove false positives
- Risk-based prioritisation of findings
- Configuration and patch-level review
- Clear, actionable remediation guidance
What you receive
- Vulnerability assessment report
- Validated, prioritised findings
- Remediation roadmap
- Executive summary
- Optional revalidation of fixes
Evidence and reporting
How the work is kept honest- Evidence, frozen at issuanceFindings tie to something observed. When the report is issued, the evidence behind it is frozen in the same transaction and cannot be edited afterwards.
- A signed reportAn Ed25519 signature covers both the report content and the delivered file. Alter a byte of either and verification fails.
- Signed scope firstTesting starts only after written scope and signed authorization for systems you own or are entitled to have tested.
Anyone holding a Solvex report can verify it publicly without seeing its contents.
Our boundaries
What this engagement does not do, stated before it starts.
- Only assets you own or are authorised to assess
- Identifies vulnerabilities; deep exploitation is a separate pentest
- Point-in-time assessment
- Remediation performed by your team
How this engagement runs
- 01
Intake
Tell us the system, the goal and the constraints. If the work is not a good fit, we say so before anyone is invoiced.
- 02
Scope and authorization
Written scope and signed authorization before anything is touched. Security testing runs only against systems you own or are contractually entitled to have tested.
- 03
Investigation or build
Specialists matched to the work. Findings are proven by hand — scanner output is a lead, never a finding.
- 04
Evidence
Every finding ties to something observed. When a report is issued, its evidence is frozen in the same transaction, so what backed the report cannot change afterwards.
- 05
Delivery
A signed report: an Ed25519 signature over both the content and the file, with a short verification reference you can read down a phone.
- 06
Verification and retest
Anyone holding the report can verify it publicly without seeing its contents. Fixes are retested as part of the engagement — “fixed” means we confirmed it.
Questions we are asked
- How is this different from a penetration test?
- A vulnerability assessment systematically identifies and prioritises weaknesses across your systems, validated by experts. A pentest goes deeper, actively exploiting and chaining issues. The assessment is a cost-effective way to understand your exposure first.
- What does the fixed price cover?
- A validated vulnerability assessment of a defined scope of systems. We confirm the exact scope up front and quote transparently for larger environments.
- Is this a good starting point?
- Yes — for many organisations it's the ideal first step: a clear, prioritised picture of your vulnerabilities that tells you exactly where to focus before investing in deeper testing.
