Vulnerability & Penetration Testing

Vector (3)

Simulating attacks and finding weaknesses to strengthen systems, reduce risk, and improve overall security posture.

Threat Detection & Response 

Our Exposure Management Service is a comprehensive subscription-based solution designed to help small to mid-market organizations proactively identify, analyze, and mitigate potential attack surface exposures.

By leveraging our extensive expertise in cybersecurity, we provide a detailed understanding of vulnerabilities within your infrastructure and correlate these findings with your unique environmental context.

This enables you to make informed decisions and prioritize remediation efforts effectively.

Benefits:

Enhanced Security Posture

Informed Decision Making

Compliance Assurance

Reduced Risk Exposure

Cost Efficiency

Red Team Assessments

Our Red Teaming service provides a comprehensive and realistic simulation of multi-vector cyberattacks to assess an organization’s detection and response capabilities.

By employing tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) similar to those used by real-world adversaries, we help organizations identify vulnerabilities across their people, processes, and technology.

This project- based service is designed without prior warning to defenders, ensuring that the assessment reflects the organization’s true security posture under pressure.

Penetration Testing

Penetration Testing is a simulated cyberattack on targeted computer systems, networks, or web applications to identify security vulnerabilities that could be exploited by malicious hackers.

Actions Performed:

1. External Testing

Targets external-facing systems like websites and firewalls.

2. Internal Testing –

Simulates an attack from within the network (e.g., a rogue employee).

3. Web Application Testing –

Focuses on identifying flaws like SQL injection, XSS, and authentication issues in web apps.

4. Wireless Network Testing –

Looks for weaknesses in wireless protocols and devices.

5. Social Engineering Testing –

Attempts to manipulate employees into revealing sensitive information (e.g., phishing).

6. Physical Penetration Testing –

Tests the security of physical entry points, such as doors and locks.

Phases:

Reconnaissance – Gather information about the target.

Scanning – Identify live hosts, open ports, and vulnerabilities.

Exploitation – Attempt to breach systems using the discovered weaknesses.

Post-Exploitation – Determine the value of the compromised system and maintain access.

Reporting – Document findings, risks, and recommendations.

Cloud Penetration Testing

Cloud Penetration Testing is the practice of simulating real-world attacks on cloud infrastructure, services, and applications to identify security weaknesses before malicious actors can exploit them.

Vulnerability Assessments

This is the process of automatically identifying security weaknesses in computer systems, networks, or applications. It’s a key part of an organization’s cybersecurity strategy, helping to detect known vulnerabilities that could be exploited by attackers.

Detection:

Outdated software or unpatched systems, misconfigurations, open ports and services, default credentials

Reporting:

A report is generated that shows vulnerabilities, their severity level, their impact, and potential solutions to them.

Types of Vulnerability Scanning:

External Scanning:

Simulates an attack from outside your network.

Internal Scanning:

Assesses security from within the network.

Authenticated Scanning:

Uses credentials to access and evaluate systems more deeply.

Unauthenticated Scanning:

Scans without login access—more like what an external attacker would see.

Why:

Risk Management: Helps prioritize which vulnerabilities to fix based on potential impact.

Compliance: Required by standards like PCI-DSS, HIPAA, and ISO 27001.

Proactive Defense: Finds issues before attackers can exploit them.
