Four Simple Steps to Secure Remote Pentesting

Get started in less than 24 hours with our streamlined deployment process.

Step 1: We Ship, You Receive

We ship a fully configured Transporter device to your location by overnight delivery. It arrives preconfigured, tested, and secured for your engagement, with no setup required on your end.

Step 2: Quick Connection

Plug the Transporter into any standard network port with internet access and power it on. There are no firewall rules to open and no networking changes to make. If you run into anything, our support team is available by phone, email, or video call.

Step 3: We Test, You Monitor

Our testers run the assessment remotely through the Transporter while you follow progress in the Raxis One portal. You see findings as they are confirmed, with severity ratings and remediation guidance, and you can reach the team directly with questions throughout the engagement.

Step 4: Easy Return or Retention

When testing wraps up, disconnect the Transporter, return it in the original box with the prepaid label, and you are done. You can also keep it connected for continuous testing or your next scheduled assessment. Many customers keep a Transporter onsite for quarterly or as-needed testing.

What Our Clients Say

Notes from customers who replaced onsite testing with a Transporter.

A group of people in a dark room working on computers, related to cybersecurity.

SaaS Provider

“Being able to choose between a physical device and a VM mattered for us. We ran the VM option inside our cloud environment and it dropped right in without shipping anything.”
— Cloud Infrastructure Lead

Electrical Products Manufacturer

“We used to budget for flights and hotels every time we needed testing. Cutting that out of the cost without giving up the quality of the assessment was an easy decision.”
— VP of IT

Logistics Company

“With staff spread across several states, there was no single place to send a tester. Shipping a device to where we needed it solved a problem onsite testing couldn’t.”
— Director of IT

Transporter: Raxis' Key to Remote Pentesting

Frequently Asked Questions

Remote penetration testing lets our security team assess your internal network, applications, and systems without being physically onsite. Raxis Transporter is a secure device you connect to your network, which gives our certified testers the same access they would have from a laptop in your office, without the travel costs or scheduling delays. We ship a preconfigured device (Raspberry Pi, Dell Micro, or virtual machine) to your location, you plug it in, and our team runs the assessment remotely. This removes the $3,500 or more in travel expenses per engagement and delivers the same results as traditional onsite penetration testing.

Remote penetration testing with Raxis Transporter typically saves organizations $3,500 to $5,000 or more per engagement by removing travel expenses. Traditional onsite testing adds costs for airfare ($600 to $1,500), hotels ($600 to $1,500), meals and incidentals ($300 to $600), and ground transportation ($150 to $300). With Transporter, you pay for the professional services plus minimal shipping (around $50). For organizations that run quarterly testing or assess multiple locations, annual savings can reach $15,000 to $25,000 or more. The professional services fee stays in line with onsite testing, and you drop the travel overhead.

Yes. Remote penetration testing through Raxis Transporter provides the same coverage as traditional onsite testing. Our team gets identical network access and runs the same procedures, including internal network testing, wireless assessments, Active Directory testing, lateral movement analysis, and privilege escalation. The Transporter connects to your network the same way an onsite tester’s laptop would, so our team can identify vulnerabilities, exploit weaknesses, and validate your security controls. The difference is that we work remotely, which adds scheduling flexibility and removes the weather and travel disruptions that can delay onsite engagements.

Raxis Transporter supports penetration testing across multiple environments:

Internal Network Penetration Testing: Assess your internal network security, identify lateral movement paths, and test network segmentation
Wireless Penetration Testing: Evaluate Wi-Fi security, guest network isolation, and wireless encryption
Cloud Penetration Testing: Test Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) environments, AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, and hybrid cloud infrastructures
Web Application Penetration Testing: Assess internally hosted applications and APIs
IoT and Embedded Systems Testing: Security testing for Internet of Things devices and embedded systems
Active Directory Security Assessment: Test domain controller security and authentication mechanisms
Continuous Penetration Testing (PTaaS): Ongoing security validation integrated into your DevSecOps pipeline

All testing follows the MITRE ATT&CK framework and meets compliance requirements for NIST 800-171, CMMC, PCI DSS, HIPAA, and ISO 27001.

Raxis Transporter deploys faster than traditional onsite testing. From initial request to active testing usually takes 24 to 48 hours, depending on our schedule. We ship the preconfigured device by overnight delivery, you receive it the next day, connect it to a network port (under 5 minutes), and our team verifies connectivity within 15 to 30 minutes. Testing starts the same day or the next business day, depending on your schedule. Onsite testing often needs 2 to 6 weeks of advance scheduling to coordinate travel, book flights, and arrange building access. For urgent assessments or incident response, Transporter gets you testing quickly without those delays.

Yes. Raxis Transporter satisfies penetration testing requirements for CMMC (Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification), NIST 800-171, PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard), HIPAA, GLBA, ISO 27001, and SOX. Our methodology follows the MITRE ATT&CK framework and covers vulnerability identification, exploitation, post-exploitation analysis, and remediation guidance. We provide executive summaries and technical reports that meet auditor requirements and document compliance with regulatory standards. For government contractors pursuing CMMC Level 2 or Level 3 certification, Transporter delivers the required annual penetration testing without the cost of flying C3PAO-approved assessors to your facility.

Raxis Transporter works well for organizations with multiple offices, distributed data centers, or geographically dispersed networks. We ship multiple devices to different locations at the same time, so you can test across your infrastructure concurrently without multiplying travel costs. Testing three offices with traditional onsite testing would mean flying testers to each site, which can run $10,500 to $15,000 in travel alone. With Transporter, you pay only minimal shipping for multiple devices while running the assessments in parallel. This fits multi-location retail chains, healthcare systems with multiple facilities, financial institutions with branch networks, and organizations with remote offices.

Penetration Testing as a Service (PTaaS) provides continuous or on-demand testing instead of a single annual point-in-time assessment. Raxis Transporter works well for PTaaS because the device can stay connected to your network for ongoing validation. You can test new applications as they ship, recheck controls after infrastructure changes, or run quarterly testing without scheduling delays or travel coordination. PTaaS with Transporter fits into DevSecOps workflows and supports testing inside CI/CD pipelines. Many organizations keep Transporter devices deployed for continuous testing, on-demand assessments, or scheduled recurring tests, which keeps value high and costs low.

Each Raxis Transporter is hardened before deployment with the following controls:

Encrypted Communications: All traffic between the device and Raxis is encrypted in transit using TLS
Encrypted Storage: Data captured during active testing is encrypted at rest on the device
Outbound-Only Connections: The device only initiates outbound connections to Raxis infrastructure, and no inbound access is possible
Restricted Access: Only authorized Raxis testers using multi-factor authentication can reach the device
Minimal Attack Surface: Unnecessary services are disabled, and the device runs a hardened, minimal operating system
Secure Configuration: Each Transporter is configured for your engagement with unique credentials
Audit Logging: Access and activity are logged for monitoring and compliance
Physical Security: Devices can sit in a locked network closet or other secured area

The Transporter undergoes its own annual security assessment and penetration testing, held to the same standards we apply to client engagements.

Raxis follows strict data handling and confidentiality protocols. During the engagement, we redact sensitive data we encounter (credentials, PII, financial information, and similar) before it is stored, so that critical data, whether identified through our analysis or defined during scoping, is not removed from your environment or retained by Raxis. After testing concludes:

Redacted findings and supporting evidence are stored in our SOC 2 Type II compliant infrastructure
Your penetration testing report and evidence are accessible through the secure Raxis One portal
Data is retained according to compliance requirements and your contract
We can provide a data destruction certificate on request
The Transporter device is either returned to Raxis, where we securely wipe it before redeployment, or kept by your organization

We do not share client data, vulnerabilities, or findings with third parties. Any third party that supports an engagement signs a nondisclosure agreement and is bound by confidentiality terms consistent with our privacy policy, and we use AI tools only where the provider commits not to train its models on customer data. For organizations with data sovereignty requirements or classified environments, we can accommodate specialized data handling procedures.
