Step 1: We Ship, You Receive

We ship a fully configured Transporter device directly to your location via overnight delivery. Everything arrives ready to use—no technical setup required on your end. The device is preconfigured, tested, and secured specifically for your engagement.

Step 2: Quick Connection

Plug the Transporter into any standard network port with internet access—the same type your employees use daily. Power it on, and you’re done. No firewall configurations, no complex networking changes. If you encounter any issues, our support team is standing by to assist via phone, email, or video call.

Step 3: We Test, You Monitor

Plug the Transporter into any standard network port with internet access—the same type your employees use daily. Power it on, and you’re done. No firewall configurations, no complex networking changes. If you encounter any issues, our support team is standing by to assist via phone, email, or video call.

Step 4: Easy Return or Retention

When testing concludes, simply disconnect the Transporter, place it back in the original box, and ship it back using the prepaid return label—no costs to you. Or, keep the device connected for continuous monitoring or your next scheduled assessment. Many clients maintain Transporters on-site for quarterly or on-demand testing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Remote penetration testing allows security professionals to assess your internal network, applications, and systems without being physically on-site. Raxis Transporter is a secure device that you connect to your network, giving our certified penetration testers the same access as if they were in your office—but without travel costs or scheduling delays. We ship a pre-configured device (Raspberry Pi, Dell Micro, or virtual machine) to your location, you plug it in, and our team conducts comprehensive security testing remotely. This approach eliminates $3,500+ in travel expenses per engagement while delivering identical results to traditional on-site penetration testing.

Remote penetration testing with Raxis Transporter typically saves organizations $3,500-$5,000+ per engagement by eliminating travel expenses. Traditional on-site penetration testing includes costs for airfare ($600-$1,500), hotel accommodations ($600-$1,500), meals and incidentals ($300-$600), and ground transportation ($150-$300). With Transporter, you only pay for the professional services and minimal shipping costs (approximately $50). For organizations requiring quarterly penetration testing or assessments at multiple locations, annual savings can reach $15,000-$25,000 or more. The professional services fee remains competitive with on-site testing, but you eliminate all travel-related overhead.

Yes. Remote penetration testing via Raxis Transporter provides the same comprehensive assessment as traditional on-site penetration testing. Our security professionals gain identical network access and perform the same testing procedures, including internal network penetration testing, wireless network assessments, Active Directory testing, lateral movement analysis, and privilege escalation attempts. The Transporter device connects to your network exactly as an on-site tester’s laptop would, allowing our team to identify vulnerabilities, exploit weaknesses, and validate your security controls. The only difference is our team works remotely, which actually provides advantages in scheduling flexibility and eliminates weather or travel disruptions that can delay on-site engagements.

Raxis Transporter supports comprehensive penetration testing services 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 deployment is significantly faster than traditional on-site penetration testing. From initial request to active testing typically takes 24-48 hours or longer, depending on our schedule load. We ship the pre-configured device via overnight delivery, you receive it the next day, connect it to a network port (takes less than 5 minutes), and our team verifies connectivity within 15-30 minutes. Testing begins the same day or the next business day, depending on your schedule. This is dramatically faster than on-site penetration testing, which often requires 2-6 weeks of advance scheduling to coordinate travel, book flights, and arrange on-site access. For urgent security assessments or incident response scenarios, Transporter provides rapid deployment without the typical delays.

Yes. Raxis Transporter fully 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 compliance frameworks. Our penetration testing methodology follows the MITRE ATT&CK framework and includes comprehensive vulnerability identification, exploitation, post-exploitation analysis, and detailed remediation guidance. We provide executive summaries and technical reports that meet auditor requirements and demonstrate compliance with regulatory standards. For government contractors pursuing CMMC Level 2 or Level 3 certification, Transporter delivers the required annual penetration testing without the high costs associated with flying C3PAO-approved assessors to your facility.

Absolutely. Raxis Transporter is ideal for organizations with multiple office locations, distributed data centers, or geographically dispersed networks. We can ship multiple Transporter devices simultaneously to different locations, allowing concurrent penetration testing across your entire infrastructure without multiplying travel costs. For example, testing three office locations with traditional on-site penetration testing would require flying security professionals to each site, potentially costing $10,500-$15,000 in travel alone. With Transporter, you pay only minimal shipping costs for multiple devices while conducting simultaneous assessments. This approach is particularly cost-effective for multi-location retail chains, healthcare systems with multiple facilities, financial institutions with branch networks, and organizations with remote office locations.

Penetration Testing as a Service (PTaaS) is a modern approach to security testing that provides continuous or on-demand penetration testing rather than annual point-in-time assessments. Raxis Transporter is ideal for PTaaS implementations because the device can remain connected to your network for ongoing security validation. This allows your organization to test new applications as they’re developed, validate security controls after infrastructure changes, or conduct quarterly penetration testing without scheduling delays or travel coordination. PTaaS with Transporter integrates seamlessly into DevSecOps workflows, enabling security testing within CI/CD pipelines. Many organizations keep Transporter devices permanently deployed for continuous penetration testing, on-demand assessments, or scheduled recurring tests—maximizing value while minimizing costs.

Security is paramount for Raxis Transporter. Each device is hardened with enterprise-grade security controls before deployment:

  • Encrypted Communications: All data transmission uses military-grade encryption protocols
  • Outbound-Only Connections: The device only initiates outbound connections to Raxis secure infrastructure—no inbound access is possible
  • Restricted Access Controls: Only authorized Raxis security professionals with multi-factor authentication can access the device
  • Minimal Attack Surface: Unnecessary services are disabled, and the device runs a hardened, minimal operating system
  • Secure Configuration: Each Transporter is pre-configured specifically for your engagement with unique credentials
  • Audit Logging: All access and activities are logged for security monitoring and compliance
  • Physical Security: Devices can be placed in locked network closets or secured areas

The Transporter itself undergoes annual security assessments and penetration testing to ensure it meets the same rigorous security standards we apply to client engagements.

Raxis follows strict data handling and confidentiality protocols. During the penetration testing engagement, any sensitive data discovered (credentials, PII, financial information, etc.) is documented securely within our encrypted reporting platform and handled according to our data retention policy. After testing concludes:

  • All engagement data is stored securely in our SOC 2 Type II compliant infrastructure
  • Your penetration testing report and evidence are accessible via the secure Raxis One portal
  • Data is retained according to compliance requirements and contractual agreements
  • Upon request, we can provide data destruction certificates
  • The Transporter device is either returned to Raxis (we securely wipe it before redeployment) or can be kept by your organization

We never share client data, vulnerabilities, or findings with third parties. All Raxis security professionals sign NDAs and confidentiality agreements. For organizations with specific data sovereignty requirements or classified environments, we can accommodate specialized data handling procedures.
