Pentest Reports

Download pentest reports tailored to different audiences.

After an assessment finishes, Aikido Pentest lets you download reports from the assessment results. Choose the report type based on who will read it and how much technical detail they should see.

Every completed Aikido Pentest includes these report options. If the assessment has pending credits, you need to settle them before downloading the reports. See Run now, pay later.

Report types

When you click "Download report", Aikido asks you to Choose Report Type. Each type uses the same assessment data, but changes the level of detail, framing, and intended audience.

Report type
Best for
What it includes

Simplified Auditor Report (Standard)

External parties, customers, and procurement teams

Proof of your security posture without sensitive stack details or exploitable specifics.

Detailed Auditor Report

Security auditors and technical reviewers

Full findings, technical evidence, and remediation log.

High Level Management Report

Executives and management

A concise summary of key findings, resolution status, and overall security posture.

Post-Remediation Report

Stakeholders reviewing remaining exposure after remediation

Current security posture and remaining risk.

Letter of Attestation

Due diligence and RFPs

Confirmation that a penetration test was performed, without specific findings.

The Simplified Auditor Report is the standard choice when your recipient needs evidence of testing but doesn't need full exploit details. Use the Detailed Auditor Report only when the reviewer needs the complete technical record.
