This indicates a full-service or multi-discipline capability. Multi-service agencies can be advantageous when your project spans several disciplines (e.g., design + development + marketing). However, check their scores per category — an agency may be strong in web development but less specialized in, say, AI/ML. Cybersecurity specialists conduct manual, context-aware testing that automated tools miss. They understand attacker methodology and can identify business-critical vulnerabilities that scanners classify as 'medium' but are actually exploitable.

Penetration testing engagements cost $10K–$60K depending on scope. Security assessments and compliance readiness range from $20K–$100K. Managed security retainers (continuous monitoring, incident response) run $5K–$30K/month. These are industry benchmarks for cybersecurity services agencies at the level AgencyCluster curates.
