AFINE

AFINE is a cybersecurity company that provides enterprise security assessment and penetration testing services. The company operates as a provider of security testing, vulnerability research, and related advisory services. Headquarters country: Poland. Regions of operation are implied across European regulated sectors based on client references to major Polish banks, healthcare providers, and critical infrastructure organisations.

Services and Capabilities

• Manual penetration testing and security assessments: in-scope and out-of-scope attack surface mapping, exploitation steps, and remediation guidance delivered in technical detail.
• Application and API security testing: analysis of web and API chains, business logic testing, authorization and authentication bypass testing, and demonstration of exploit paths.
• Infrastructure and OT/ICS testing: evaluation of industrial control systems and SCADA components with techniques designed to avoid production disruption.
• Source code review and secure configuration analysis: review of code and deployment configurations to identify vulnerabilities and insecure defaults.
• Risk reporting and remediation planning: dual-track reports for technical teams and leadership, priority-ranked findings, and fix-it roadmaps showing how issues were exploited.
• Vulnerability research and disclosure: discovery and publication of CVEs in enterprise software and coordination of technical details for remediation.

Industry Focus

• Banking: security assessments of core banking systems, payment infrastructure, and customer data platforms, including penetration tests and abuse testing.
• Fintech: testing of payment platforms, digital wallets, and transaction systems to identify logic flaws and authentication bypasses.
• Healthcare: assessment of electronic health record systems, medical devices, and patient data platforms to identify vulnerabilities affecting confidentiality and integrity.
• Critical infrastructure: OT and ICS evaluations to identify attack paths in industrial controls and SCADA environments without disrupting production.

Technology and Delivery Approach

• Emphasis on manual, researcher-led testing rather than relying solely on automated scanners; engagements include mapping of system integrations and discovery of attack chains across API and authentication boundaries.
• Exploit-driven validation: demonstration of exploitation steps and reproduction details so technical teams can remediate identified vulnerabilities.
• Dual-track reporting and real-time risk intelligence: separate technical remediation details for engineering teams and business-impact summaries for leadership, with visibility into critical findings during assessment.
• Standards and certifications: the organisation reports ISO 27001 certification and support for compliance frameworks such as DORA, PCI DSS, SOC 2, ISO 27001, TIBER-EU, NESA, and FCA; team members hold offensive security and professional certifications (examples include OSCP and other industry certifications).
