Elpha Secure provides modern cyber insurance and backs it with smart security

Elpha Secure provides cybersecurity insurance to small businesses, like dentists, law firms, and estate agents. Many of them don’t have a security operations center or a dedicated security team. This leaves them exposed to threats that can disrupt operations.

This is a problem for SMBs, leaving many on the back foot. With over 40,000 new CVEs published last year, they’re stuck chasing patches, sorting alerts, and trying to decipher what really matters!

The SMB vulnerability assessment gap

Traditional insurance responds after an incident.
Elpha Secure doesn’t just cover the damage, they reduce customer risk upfront. But, their internal tools made this more difficult than it needed to be.

Their previous approach to vulnerability assessment had several challenges:

❌ Fragmented tools that relied on manual effort and open-source scripts

❌ No clear vulnerability prioritization, alerts were overwhelming and lacked context

❌ Opaque risk labels with little explanation (low/medium/high with no context or proof)

❌ Limited visibility into client attack surfaces

We were spending too much time correlating threat data manually, and not enough on helping clients act on the real risks.

Elpha Secure needed a product that would cut through the noise and help them focus on what mattered – removing top exploitable vulnerabilities from client attack-surfaces.

Rapid cloud adoption among SMBs increases risk

Cloud adoption among SMBs has skyrocketed

But, without strong security foundations this creates new risk.

Developers ship updates faster than security checks can keep up, introducing misconfigurations. Emerging technologies, like generative AI, have made threats such as ransomware, credential stuffing, and automated reconnaissance more efficient and dangerous.

But, building an in-house scanning solution wasn’t an option. It would drain resources from Elpha Secure’s core business. The team needed a scalable way to improve visibility, automate assessments, and reduce exposure for their clients.

Pentest-Tools.com: “They just feel fresh!”

Other tools were like black boxes. They were not customizable, used unclear risk labels, and didn’t explain how they evaluated security issues.


Elpha Secure wanted clear proof and context for each reported issue, not noise. They needed useful insights, not random scores, and a full view of their clients’ risk. Elpha chose Pentest-Tools.com for three key reasons:

Elpha Secure looked at seven vendors. Most focused on sending lots of alerts, rather than highlighting the handful of critical vulnerabilities needing attention.

Custom setup

Elpha can set its own risk rules to match how it underwrites policies

Clear risk ratings

Each finding shows context, example exploits, and steps to fix the issue

Clear risk prioritization

The product focuses on prioritizing vulnerabilities, not just alert volume, by minimizing false positives and delivering a more accurate picture of real, prioritized risks

Real results: risk reduction at scale

Pentest-Tools.com found hidden assets and previously unknown vulnerabilities.

The product highlighted misconfigurations, exposed services, and entry points that standard internal security measures were unable to easily detect. It gave fast, useful results with proof, helping ElphaSecure advise clients quickly.
