Capture The Bug is a New Zealand-based penetration testing partner specialising in expert-led, manual security testing for modern engineering teams.

Unlike automated scanners or surface-level assessments, our approach is grounded in deep, human-led testing – simulating real-world attack scenarios to uncover vulnerabilities that tools alone often miss.

We work closely with startups, scale-ups, and enterprise teams – including ASX and NZX-listed companies – to deliver high-quality, actionable insights that go beyond generic reports. Our testing is designed to keep pace with evolving systems, ensuring security remains relevant even as applications change.

Through our pentesting platform, teams gain real-time visibility into findings, with direct collaboration between developers and our security experts. This enables faster remediation, better prioritisation, and a more efficient security workflow without slowing down delivery.

Capture The Bug supports organisations across web, mobile, APIs, and cloud environments, helping them achieve stronger security assurance, meet compliance requirements (ISO 27001, SOC 2), and reduce long-term risk — all through a practical, developer-friendly approach.

CREST Security Testing - Penetration Testing Badge

Capture The Bug offers comprehensive penetration testing services designed to identify, assess, and help remediate security vulnerabilities across your digital assets before attackers can exploit them. Unlike traditional vendors, we deliver our testing through a Penetration Testing as a Service (PTaaS) platform – giving you real-time visibility, faster turnaround, and actionable results.

Our Approach:

We combine industry-leading security expertise with a collaborative SaaS platform to ensure
every engagement is transparent and impactful. Our process includes:

– Scoping & Planning – Tailored to your business, regulatory, and technical needs.
– Manual & Automated Testing – Covering web apps, mobile apps, APIs, cloud, and
network infrastructure, following OWASP and industry best practices.
– Real-Time Findings – Vulnerabilities are reported instantly in your dashboard, with
severity ratings and clear remediation steps.
– Remediation Support & Retesting – We work alongside your team to validate fixes
and ensure risks are fully resolved.

Key Features:

– On-Demand Scheduling – Run tests when you need them, without vendor delays.
– Continuous Security – Move from one-off annual tests to ongoing security assessments.
– Regulatory Alignment -Meet compliance requirements for ISO 27001, SOC2
and more.
– Expertise – Our testers hold published CVEs and rank in the top 50 on leading bug
bounty platforms, proving their skills against real-world threats.
