Re: Pen-test pricing

[Adam Chesnutt <icetre () digitalfreezer net>]

Andre,

I can tell you that I work for a fortune 500 company that does these 
type of engagements, and I recently performed such an engagement, 
resulting in a month-long survey of more than 1000 systems.

This particular engagement was performed for a large manufacturer with a 
very large exposed Internet presence.

My company charged a fixed price of $100,000 for this, and this isn't an 
uncommon price.

This was literally just for the Pen-test and not for anything other than 
a suggestion of a solution.

I hope this helps,

Adam
