About Hackeroo
Hackeroo is a team of ethical hackers who approach security strictly from the perspective of real-world attackers.
We conduct penetration tests that go far beyond ticking boxes — our goal is to uncover real risks in a clear, reproducible, and practical way. Our focus includes web applications, APIs, internal and external networks, as well as modern cloud environments.
Hackeroo stands for strong value for money. We work in a focused and efficient manner without unnecessary overhead. To operate as efficiently as possible, we use PTDoc, our structured platform for penetration testing documentation and reporting. This allows us to reduce unnecessary effort, increase the consistency of results, and invest our time where it delivers the greatest value. Our approach combines a structured methodology with a high level of manual analysis supported by PTDoc. Automated tools serve as a foundation, but the critical vulnerabilities are identified through experience, creativity, and technical depth.

FAQ
Fequently Asked Questions
An ethical hacker is someone who attacks systems — with permission and with a clear goal: finding vulnerabilities before they are exploited.
Ethical hackers think like real attackers. They don’t look for theoretical issues, but for practical ways to actually break in, access data, or gain control. The difference to a criminal is not the technique, but the mandate.
At Hackeroo, this means: no show, no buzzword bingo. We test in a focused, responsible, and transparent way. Everything we find is documented clearly, assessed realistically, and explained so it can be fixed.
In short: ethical hackers break in so no one else can later.
A penetration test is a controlled attack on your IT systems with one clear goal: finding vulnerabilities before real attackers do.
We think and act like attackers. We don’t just scan the surface — we actively try to exploit security weaknesses in web applications, APIs, networks, cloud environments, and internal systems. We combine automated tooling with deep manual analysis, experience, and creativity.
The result is not a buzzword-filled report, but a clear answer to the most important question: How would someone actually break in — and how do you stop exactly that?
A penetration test exposes real risks, prioritizes them in a way that makes sense, and delivers concrete, actionable recommendations. No marketing. No checklists. Real security.
Red teaming is a realistic attack against your organization — not against a single system, but against the entire security concept.
Unlike classic penetration tests, red teaming does not follow a fixed scope or a checklist. The goal is to get as far as possible using real attacker tactics while staying undetected: technical attacks, abuse of processes, and bypassing controls. Exactly how real attackers would operate.
The focus is not on individual vulnerabilities, but on one key question: How well does your organization detect, prevent, and stop a real attack? Technology, people, and processes are tested together.
Red teaming delivers an honest, no-filter view of where security measures actually work — and where they only exist on paper.
The difference lies in how much information the pentester receives before the engagement starts.
Blackbox:
No prior information. The tester starts with almost no knowledge — similar to an external attacker.
This approach is realistic but inefficient, as significant time is spent on reconnaissance instead of structured vulnerability testing.

Greybox:
The tester receives relevant information such as network ranges, subdomains, or test accounts.
This enables an efficient and structured assessment of the defined attack surface.
In practice, this is usually the most practical and cost-effective approach.

Whitebox:
Full transparency. Documentation, configurations, and often source code are provided.
This allows maximum technical depth but can become audit-like and is not always more efficient.

Our recommendation:
In most cases, a well-prepared greybox penetration test offers the best balance between realism, depth, and efficiency.
