Transforming Pentesting Delivery from Static Reports to Real-Time Remediation
When 0dayQ was founded, the mission was clear: disrupt the traditional consultancy model of penetration testing. Instead of delivering static PDF reports days or weeks after an engagement, the team wanted to give clients faster insights, earlier remediation access, and better visibility throughout the process.
To achieve that, they needed a platform that could support a Pentest-as-a-Service (PTaaS) model from the very beginning. That’s where Cyver Core came in.

The Challenge: Breaking Away from Tradition
Like most startups in security consulting, 0dayQ began with Word documents and PDF reports. But it quickly became clear that this format was too slow, too static, and too inefficient.
Clients waited days for a report, while potential risks remained open. On top of that, internal workflows around scoping, delivery, and reporting were difficult to manage efficiently.
“Traditional pentesting is consultative — you get a PDF report days later. At 0dayQ, our disruptive element is allowing the customer early remediation access and reducing the breach window.”
The team knew they needed a system that could streamline workflows, enable collaboration, and deliver results in real-time.
The Solution: Early Adoption of Cyver Core
From the start, 0dayQ adopted Cyver Core to move beyond traditional consultancy and deliver pentesting as an ongoing service.
- Workflows & Automation – Efficient scoping-to-delivery process, reducing admin overhead.
- Client Portal – A single pane of glass for visibility, enabling customers to track progress and findings in real time.
- API Integrations – Connected to the company’s existing CRM, automating onboarding and syncing processes.
- Reporting & Dashboards – Faster delivery of findings, version control, and historical records for recurring clients.
“The adoption of Cyver Core allowed us to implement workflows, streamline engagement visibility, and maximize tester time by removing admin barriers.”
The Results: Faster Delivery, Happier Clients
The move to Cyver Core transformed how 0dayQ delivers pentesting:
- Delivery in days, not weeks – Clients get remediation insights almost immediately.
- High Retention – Over 80% client retention, thanks to real-time reporting and easy-to-use dashboards.
- Scalability – The ability to run 5–10 pentests per month with a growing base of ~50 clients.
- Positive Client Feedback – Customers describe the platform as “clean, easy to use, and effective.”
“The feedback from clients is that it’s clean, easy to use, and helps us deliver better. Even external developers tell us they love the way findings are presented.”
Conclusion: A Partnership for Growth
By adopting Cyver Core from the very beginning, 0dayQ was able to build a modern PTaaS business model that differentiates them from traditional consultancies.
Today, Cyver Core continues to support their growth with new features, responsive development, and a platform designed to keep pentesting agile, scalable, and client-focused.
✅ Key Takeaway: With Cyver Core, 0dayQ transformed from static PDF reporting to a dynamic, client-friendly PTaaS model — achieving faster delivery, stronger client retention, and a scalable foundation for growth.
