The Problem

Your Auditor Wants More Than a Scan Report

Healthcare and Fintech companies face a hard truth: automated security tools don't satisfy compliance auditors, and they definitely don't stop attackers.

SOC 2 CC6.1 Demands Evidence

SOC 2 Type II auditors under CC6.1 and CC7.1 require documented evidence of penetration testing — not vulnerability scans. A scanner report gets you flagged. A manual pentest report gets you certified.

SOC 2 TYPE II

HIPAA §164.308(a)(8) Requires Testing

The HIPAA Security Rule mandates regular evaluation of your technical safeguards protecting ePHI. Organizations that skip manual security testing face OCR investigations and penalties up to $1.9M per violation category.

HIPAA

Enterprise Deals Stall Without Proof

Enterprise security questionnaires (SIG, CAIQ, VSAQ) ask specifically about penetration testing — when it was last done, who conducted it, and what was found. No pentest report means no signed contract.

Industries We Serve

Built for Healthcare & Fintech Security Teams

Two industries. Different compliance frameworks. Same mission: find what attackers will exploit before your auditor does.

Healthcare

EHRs · Health Apps · Telehealth · Medical SaaS

Healthcare companies handling Protected Health Information face unique security challenges. A single breach can trigger OCR investigations, HIPAA penalties up to $1.9M per violation category, and irreversible patient trust damage.

  • HIPAA Security Rule §164.312 technical safeguards testing
  • ePHI access control & audit log validation
  • EHR platform & patient portal API security
  • Business associate security chain assessment
  • HITECH Act breach risk analysis support

Fintech

Payments · Lending · WealthTech · Banking APIs

Fintech companies handling financial data and payment systems are prime targets. SOC 2 Type II certification, PCI DSS compliance, and DPDP obligations are non-negotiable for enterprise customers and regulators.

  • SOC 2 Type II CC6.1, CC6.6, CC7.1 coverage
  • PCI DSS Requirement 11.3.1 penetration testing
  • Open banking API security & FAPI compliance
  • DPDP Act data security obligation testing
  • Payment gateway & transaction flow security

What We Test

Penetration Testing Services

Every engagement is manual, scoped, and mapped to your compliance framework. No automated scan dumps. No false positives. Verified, exploitable findings with audit-ready reports.

AWS / Azure / GCP / Oracle

Cloud Security Testing

Your cloud is where patient records, financial data, and customer information live. We test every access point and permission to find what an attacker could reach — and show your auditor you checked.

  • Who has access to sensitive data and whether that access is too broad
  • Whether one compromised account could reach everything else
  • Files, credentials, or secrets accidentally left exposed
  • Whether your cloud systems are properly separated from each other
  • Paths that lead from a small gap to a full data breach

Patient Portals / Payment Platforms / SaaS Apps

Web App & API Testing

Your patient portal, payment platform, or customer dashboard is the front door to your most sensitive data. We test whether it's actually as secure as your HIPAA or SOC 2 audit requires it to be.

  • Whether your login and account security can be bypassed
  • Whether one user can access another user's data
  • Whether your payment flows can be manipulated
  • Whether your APIs expose more information than they should
  • Whether customers on shared platforms are properly isolated
HIPAA SOC 2 DPDP
Healthcare AI / Fintech AI / AI Assistants

AI & Agent Security Testing

AI tools are being added to healthcare and fintech products faster than security teams can review them. We test whether your AI can be manipulated into exposing sensitive data or bypassing the rules it's supposed to follow.

  • Whether your AI can be tricked into revealing patient or customer data
  • Whether it can be made to ignore its own safety rules
  • Whether it has access to more data than it should
  • Whether your AI tool could be used as an entry point into your systems
  • Whether AI-to-AI connections in your product create unexpected risks

Framework Coverage

Your Compliance. Our Testing.

Every NullStrike engagement is mapped to the specific technical controls your compliance framework requires. Your auditor gets the evidence. You get the security.

Framework Requirement What We Test Deliverable
HIPAA Periodic security evaluation of patient data systems Who can access patient records, how data is protected in transit and at rest Report your HIPAA auditor and OCR can accept as evidence
SOC 2 Proof that access controls and monitoring actually work Who has access to what, how changes are tracked, how threats are detected Evidence package your SOC 2 auditor cites in the final report
PCI DSS Annual penetration test of payment systems Every system that touches cardholder or payment data, inside and outside PCI-compliant pentest report accepted by your QSA assessor
DPDP Reasonable security measures protecting personal data Where personal data lives, who can access it, how it moves through your systems Security assessment that documents your data protection efforts
ISO 27001 Regular testing of technical security controls Vulnerabilities across your infrastructure and applications Findings documentation for your information security management system

Who We Are

Sujal Meghwal

Founder, NullStrike Security

I started NullStrike because I kept seeing the same problem: Healthcare and Fintech companies were spending months preparing for audits, only to hand in a security report their auditor rejected. The tools their teams were using looked like security work, but they weren't producing the evidence auditors require.

I've spent 3+ years finding the exact security gaps that put patient data, financial records, and customer trust at risk. Every engagement I run produces a clear, plain-language report that satisfies your auditor, gives your team a practical fix list, and helps your business move forward — whether that's passing a HIPAA review, closing an enterprise deal, or getting your SOC 2 certification across the line.

FAQ

Common Questions

Questions from Healthcare and Fintech security teams before their first engagement with us.

Ask Us Directly
Yes. HIPAA Security Rule §164.308(a)(8) requires covered entities and business associates to regularly evaluate whether their technical safeguards adequately protect ePHI. Manual penetration testing is the standard method for satisfying this requirement and documenting compliance for auditors and OCR investigations.
SOC 2 Type II auditors under CC6.1 and CC7.1 expect evidence of penetration testing as part of your logical access controls and monitoring program. While the framework doesn't mandate a specific test format, auditors look for documented testing, scope, methodology, findings, and remediation — exactly what our reports provide.
Most engagements take 1–3 weeks depending on scope. A single cloud environment or web application typically takes 1–2 weeks. Multi-cloud or full-stack assessments run 2–3 weeks. We understand compliance deadlines — if you have an audit in 30–60 days, tell us on the discovery call and we'll prioritize accordingly.
Every report includes: executive summary for your leadership, detailed technical findings with proof-of-concept exploits, CVSS risk ratings, business impact analysis, compliance framework control mapping (HIPAA, SOC 2, PCI DSS, or DPDP as applicable), step-by-step remediation guidance, and a debrief call for your team and auditors.
No. We scope every engagement carefully and agree on boundaries before testing begins. All testing is controlled and authorized. We communicate any potential impact scenarios upfront and avoid destructive actions unless explicitly approved. Healthcare environments with critical uptime requirements are handled with additional care.
We test AWS, Azure, GCP, and Oracle Cloud environments. Our Multi-Cloud Red Team Analyst (MCRTA) certification covers cross-cloud attack paths, trust boundary abuse, and privilege escalation across all major providers — critical for Healthcare and Fintech environments deployed across multiple clouds.
