Those are the services for "ordinary people". The thing is, they advertise to celebrities & CEOs because there aren't many people willing to pay for pentesting. That will always be an expensive service, since it by definition requires highly-skilled employees. A service that advertises to celebrities would almost certainly be willing to work with an ordinary individual, but how many people are willing to pay for the service? Certainly not enough for this to be a million-dollar idea.
- DaniloDias 8y agoA service for “ordinary people” would likely involve targeting services which are not operated by the customer (e.g. brute forcing gmail or fb creds). The tester would be taking on legal risk for performing any kind of account takeover. Consequently, I don’t see this as a viable service offering.
