We offer penetration testing at Brain Bulb, but I always try to convince
clients to let us perform a security audit instead. Auditing the code
allows us to be much more productive and thorough, plus we can identify
theoretical weaknesses in addition to the practical ones.

In addition to being less useful, penetration testing tends to be much
more expensive, because it requires more time and effort. The only
reason we offer the service is that some companies are uncomfortable
sharing their code with anyone, regardless of NDAs and such.

You might want to check out the links Christophe mentioned, as these
provide free advice, which seems to be more along the lines of what you
want.
