Penetration Test Flow
Kickoff
Defining scope & sharing any relevant history or info: The process begins with a kickoff meeting where the scope of the penetration test is clearly defined. This stage involves discussing the targets, objectives, and any relevant historical security issues or previous breaches. It's essential to establish clear communication and set expectations for the penetration testing process.

Testing Across All Industries
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.

USE CASES
Penetration testing, or pen testing, is a proactive security testing approach where skilled ethical hackers simulate cyberattacks to identify vulnerabilities in your systems, networks, or applications.
Penetration testing is crucial for identifying and mitigating security vulnerabilities, ensuring the protection of sensitive data, and maintaining the overall integrity of your
IT infrastructure.
The frequency of penetration testing depends on various factors such as industry regulations, IT environment changes, and the level of risk your business is willing to accept. Generally, a minimum of an annual test is recommended.
There are three factors to our services:
-
Perspective & Context (White Box, Gray Box, Black Box)
-
Testing Scope (Networks, Web Apps, APIs, etc.)
-
Frequency (Single Engagement or Pentesting as a Service)
Based on your situation we will make our recommendation for the most beneficial service configuration for your business.
-
The duration of an engagement varies greatly based on desired cost and scope. Some customers might prefer a quick test to catch low hanging fruit and save on costs. Others prefer a lengthy multi-week engagement to paint a full picture of their situation.
The more time you give our team to dig, the more they can find.
A 2 day engagement could leave you feeling invincible, while actually being vulnerable. However, giving our team 2 weeks allows them to discover more exploits. Bad actors can take over a month to prepare a cyberattack. We recommend at least 1 week for most organizations.
Yes, in fact penetration testing is often necessary to meet regulatory requirements. By identifying and addressing security vulnerabilities, you can prove to auditors and customers that you are committed to a good security posture.
We take the utmost care with sensitive data. Our testing is conducted within a defined scope, and all data is handled confidentially and securely. We follow industry best practices to protect your information and ensure your data is never shared, sold, or tampered with.
Yes, having security measures in place is essential. However, penetration testing provides an added layer of assurance and proof for authorities. A pentest provides insights to vulnerabilities that may not be apparent through traditional security measures.
After a test, we provide a detailed report outlining identified vulnerabilities, their potential impact, and recommendations for remediation. We are also available for consultations to discuss the findings and answer any questions.
Penetration testing, or pen testing, is a proactive security testing approach where skilled ethical hackers simulate cyberattacks to identify vulnerabilities in your systems, networks, or applications.
