Penetration Test Flow
1
Kickoff
Defining scope, & sharing any relevant history or info.
2
Vulnerability Scan
Clearing of low-hanging-fruit.
3
Exploitation
Testing for all available exploits before the attack.
4
Attack
Turning exploits into proven vulnerabilites.
5
Reporting
Pairing a deep report with remediation.

Information:
Access to full source code, network maps and credentials.
Use Cases:​
Application testing, bug testing, critical infrastructure reliability.
Pros & Cons:
Reduces engagement cost and time by removing initial stages, but lacks a full perspective.
Information:
Partial access to credentials, services, knowledge, or elevated privileges.
Use Cases:​
Granting elevated privileges to simulate a data breach paired followed by a cyberattack.
Pros & Cons:
Provides a holistic view while preventing weeks of prep work.
Information:
No internal information, only data that is publicly accessible.
Use Cases:​
Simulating an external cyberattack with no internal compromise, or leaked data.
Pros & Cons:
The most telling form of analysis but can become very costly and time consuming.
Organization Wide Testing
Networks
Tests are initialized by network mapping, sometimes maps are provided in a gray box test to save resources. Next we scan for misconfigurations and vulnerabilities. Finally, our team manually tests for anything scans might miss.
Using NMAP to map a network prior to vulnerability scanning and infiltration. Visualized with ZENMAP.

Stay Secure in a World of Cyberattacks
97% of networks can be penetrated by bad actors. NIST recommends that organizations test a minimum of once a year. However, critical systems must be tested more frequently to ensure a proper defense.
Maintain Business Continuity & Stability
Build a Trustworthy
Brand Image
Scale Your Business
Win more contracts by providing proof of your organization's security posture. Large vendors like Microsoft, Google, or Meta require partners to meet security requirements.
