Penetration Testing Permission

Hi,

We want to get a web penetration testing done on my website, do I need permission from yourself (Cloudflare) to approve or can they go ahead and start testing my site?

Regards,
Jimmy

I dont think you need any permission *). Keep in mind though, these tests might flag the originating IP address and you might get more/only challenges at some point.


*) You are only testing web related things, nothing on a network level (e.g. different ports), right?

It looks to be both web and some infrastructure. Infrastructure would need permission or rather how do I know they are secure?

If you test the infrastructure, you’d be testing Cloudflare’s and that might need some permission, respectively might not be appreciated at all. Best to contact support.
