    And the company doesn’t ask for references, or proof of what was done?

      or like a detailed report. I bet you could make a standard report and just change a few things and maybe pull the scam sometimes. The hardest part I think would be getting someone to accept from a cold call. Would need to be pretty stupid to do that to begin with.

        The reports list your hardware on them generally. They need access into your network.

        The truth is you can instead of faking it, you just do an actual pentest. It is generally a mix of FOSS tools like kali, metasploit, nmap, etc and pay tools like nessus. These can all be automated themselves.

        Charge the money, mail them a pre setup laptop, then hit the “go” button and still sit on your ass for a week, then give them an actual report.

          I was thinking this. Get a nice format with letter head or whatever for dumping from the tools but now its almost like an honest living. ewwww.

          They need access into your network.

            I was asked to review a project of another company, and needed access to their documentation for that. they gave me access to their whole wiki instead of just a part of it. definitely included that in the report
