Many SOC 2 “penetration tests” aren’t actually penetration tests — and real auditors, CISOs, and engineers are calling it out.

In this video, I react to real quotes from people in the trenches: auditors frustrated with unethical upsells, CTOs complaining about worthless reports, and developers stuck fixing unverified findings from copy-pasted PDFs.

If you’ve ever paid $10k for a vulnerability scan dressed up as a pentest, you’re not crazy — this is happening a lot more than anyone wants to admit.

🔍 Topics covered:

  • When SOC 2 auditors sell you the test themselves (!)
  • What fake pentests look like in real life
  • Why most reports don’t help your team
  • How to spot garbage before you sign the contract
