5. Engagement terms

Security testing engagements are governed by a separate contract. Key principles that apply to all engagements:

  • Authorisation: We only test systems you have explicit authority to authorise. You are responsible for confirming you have the legal right to authorise testing of all systems in scope.
  • Scope: Testing is conducted strictly within the agreed scope defined in the SOW. Any changes to scope require written agreement from both parties.
  • Rules of engagement: We follow the rules of engagement defined in the SOW, including testing windows, excluded systems, and communication protocols.
  • Confidentiality: All findings, reports, and data generated during an engagement are treated as confidential. We do not disclose client information to third parties.

6. Limitation of liability

OFFCEPT provides security testing based on the scope and methodology agreed in the SOW. Security testing provides a point-in-time assessment and does not guarantee that all vulnerabilities have been identified or that systems will remain secure after testing.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, OFFCEPT shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from the use of our website or services.

7. Confidentiality

We treat all client communications, engagement data, and test results as confidential. Our team operates under strict non-disclosure agreements. Client information is never shared, published, or used for marketing without explicit written consent.

8. Responsible disclosure

If you discover a vulnerability in our systems, we encourage you to report it responsibly through our Responsible Disclosure page. We are committed to working with the security community.

9. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of Portugal. Any disputes arising from these terms or our services shall be resolved in the courts of Portugal.
