Penetration Testing

Downloadable Customer Datasheet

Penetration testing, also known as ethical hacking, is a method of attempting to compromise a system, as a potential attacker would, in order to see how much and what type of information is actually divulged. Penetration testing enables companies to receive a real life vulnerability test of their current security measures by attempting to break the security of your system to acquire information and capabilities that exceed those of a regular user. Companies use penetration testing as a method of determining how vulnerable their systems really are to all types of attacks.

Our extensive penetration test produces the following benefits for your company:

  • Identify any potential security vulnerabilities in your current IT infrastructure and develop plans to mitigate these weaknesses.
  • Ensure that your existing security measures work properly.
  • Determine the degree of your company's exposure to external and internal attacks.
  • Provide evidence that verifies the possibility of exploiting the vulnerabilities found.
  • Determine the probability that an attacker could compromise the system with access to computers connected to your company's network.
  • Facilitate the design of a plan for implementing countermeasures.
  • Assess active defense systems such as your company's Intrusion Detection System (IDS) and Computer Incident Response Team (CIRT).
  • Verify that your company's systems have been properly secured.
