How many of the services on Qualysec's published profile also appear on QAwerk's published list?

Three of the five services on Qualysec's published profile, penetration testing, API testing and security testing, also appear on QAwerk's published list of sixteen services, both checked 2 September 2026. The other two services on Qualysec's list, red teaming and secure code review, do not appear on QAwerk's list at all. A buyer who needs one of those two narrower disciplines finds it on only one of the two published profiles, regardless of how many services the wider list carries.

Which of the two engagement models on each company's published profile has a defined end date, and which does not?

QAwerk's published profile lists project work and dedicated team as its engagement models, checked 2 September 2026. Project work runs to a defined start, end and deliverable, and dedicated team does not, since that team stays on a rolling contract. Qualysec's published profile lists on-demand testing and managed testing as its engagement models, checked 2 September 2026. On-demand testing is booked per release with no standing team, and managed testing runs on an ongoing basis with no stated end. A buyer who needs to know how long a vendor stays engaged has to ask which of the two published models applies to the work being scoped, since neither profile states it.

QAwerk vs Qualysec

QA Rating is published independently, and its publisher owns no company listed in this catalog.

QAwerk meets the conditions for Embedded team model and Automation first and Nearshore for the EU; Qualysec meets none that QAwerk does not. The catalog has Frameworks only for QAwerk. Neither publishes Certificates, Signs a BAA / GDPR DPA, Onboarding, Crowd tester pool, Device lab, so the table cannot answer those.

Who each one fits

Each company's published case history sits on different ground. Qualysec's work stays inside standing infrastructure, an energy grid or a public network, systems built to keep running whether or not anyone is using them. QAwerk's reach continues into products a person picks up and puts down, a vehicle dashboard or a game held in someone's hand. A buyer whose product does not sit cleanly on either side is choosing between case histories that do not quite reach it, and needs each vendor to say whether that gap matters.

The occasion that sends a buyer looking for either kind of check rarely starts with the buyer. It starts downstream: a customer's security questionnaire carrying its own reply date, an investor's condition ahead of a financing round closing, a disclosed weakness in a library the product depends on, or a recertification date set the year before. What a buyer needs from whichever vendor is chosen is the day the engagement begins, since every other date on the calendar counts backward from it. No published profile in this pair names that day, and a buyer typically learns it on the first call, once the deadline that started the search is already running.

A tag is attached when the company's published fields meet its condition, never by judgement. Both lists come from the same closed vocabulary, so a tag missing from one side means the condition was not met, not that nobody looked.

QAwerk

Qualysec

Qualysec meets no applicability condition in this catalog. That is a statement about what its published fields show, not about the company.

Both meet the conditions for Security focus, so those conditions do not separate them.

Where the data runs out

Completeness against the 14 fields of the comparison checklist is 86% for QAwerk and 79% for Qualysec. A field is counted as filled when a source confirms it, so a gap means nobody published it.

Neither company has a value recorded for these fields: Certificates, Signs a BAA / GDPR DPA, Onboarding, Crowd tester pool, Device lab. The table shows those rows empty rather than estimating them.

Field definitions and the completeness checklist are on the methodology page. The sources behind each field are listed on the QAwerk profile and the Qualysec profile.

Every fact about a company comes from a listed source. A field without a source stays empty. A certificate counts as confirmed only when a registry, certificate or auditor report backs it; a certificate the company only claims about itself is published separately, under that label. Vendors can request a correction at hello@qa-rating.com. A correction is applied when it comes with a public source.
