What does a Digital Forensics & Evidence engagement cover in India?
Key takeaways
- Scope, price band and delivery date are agreed in writing before any testing starts.
- Every finding ships with a reproduction step and a concrete fix, not a tool name.
- A one-page plain-English summary is included so non-technical decision makers can act.
- A retest after remediation is included and lists each finding as closed, partial or open.
- The report states what was tested and what was not, so you know the limits of the result.

How does the engagement run?
The order of an engagement is not arbitrary. It starts with a scoping call, because the most common way to waste money on a penetration test is to test the wrong thing carefully. From that call comes a written rules-of-engagement document that names every system, every date, the test window, the named contact, and what is explicitly out of scope. Both sides sign it and keep a copy. The test happens inside that window and nowhere else. Then the report, then your engineers fix it, then we retest what we raised.
| Stage | What happens | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Scoping | A call and, where needed, a short technical discovery | A written scope and a fixed price band |
| Authorisation | Rules of engagement signed by both parties | A document for your legal and insurance files |
| Testing | Manual and AI-assisted testing inside the agreed window | A live finding log you can ask about at any point |
| Reporting | Technical report plus a one-page executive summary | Prioritised findings with reproduction steps and fixes |
| Remediation | Your team fixes, we answer questions during the work | Support while the fixes are in flight |
| Retest | We re-test what we raised | A retest certificate per finding |
What do you get, and when?
The artefacts come out in the same order every time, whatever the engagement is. A client comparing two firms should be comparing the depth of the work, not whether one of them included a one-page summary and the other did not think to.
| Deliverable | What it contains | When you get it |
|---|---|---|
| Written scope and rules of engagement | Every system, date, permitted technique and named contact | Before testing starts |
| Live finding log | Findings as they are raised, with severity | During the engagement |
| Technical report | CVSS scores, reproduction steps and fix guidance | At the end of testing |
| Executive summary | One page, written for a non-technical decision maker | With the technical report |
| Evidence pack | Request and response captures for every finding | With the technical report |
| Remediation support | Answers while your team applies the fixes | While the fixes are in flight |
| Retest certificate | Each finding marked closed, partial or open | After remediation |
How do you price it?
₹30,000 – ₹2,50,000 is the indicative band for a typical scope of this type. The final figure depends on the number of assets, the depth of authentication, the number of environments, and whether the engagement includes remediation support. We quote a fixed price, not an hourly one, and we confirm it in writing before work starts.
