Penetration Testing

Reveal Vulnerabilities and Meet Compliance with Manual Pen Testing

Even if you’ve invested in the most comprehensive cybersecurity protection, there is no guarantee that a hacker won’t be able to breach your network. Cybercriminals are improving their tactics as quickly as cybersecurity products are being developed. A cyberattack can cause a lot of havoc on your business by crippling your productivity, exposing sensitive information, and damaging your reputation with clients and prospects.

What is Penetration Testing?

Penetration testing involves simulating a real-world cybersecurity attack to identify and document vulnerabilities that could be exploited. These tests are performed by qualified IT security experts who think like the hackers do. They try to take advantage of security vulnerabilities and exploits, and utilize tactics like phishing and social engineering to try to get past your defenses.

In doing so, they form a better understanding of where the weaknesses really are in your defenses, giving you the insight to fix them. As a result, your cybersecurity can improve.

Pen Testing isn’t a one-time event, and should be done regularly during other IT/Security audits, as your network environment changes and as cybersecurity trends evolve.

Pen Testing is Required to Meet Certain Security Compliances

Good security naturally leads to compliance, and we strongly believe that protecting your business and customer data is a greater incentive to be secure than simply meeting minimum compliance standards. That said, many security regulations, such as PCI DSS, HIPAA, GLBA, FISMA, and NERC CIP require penetration testing to meet compliances.

Phishing Simulation - Train Your Staff and Prevent Threats

Test and Educate Your Employees to Prevent Data/Identity Theft

It was found that 94% of malware is delivered by email, according to the 2019 edition of Verizon’s annual Data Breach Investigations Report. Cybercriminals are utilizing very convincing tactics to steal sensitive information and gain access to your data through cleverly targeted phishing attacks.

These attacks are often disguised to look like urgent requests, and look like legitimate emails. The emails will look like official emails from your bank, your vendors, or even from within your own company… and they’ve proven very effective for cybercriminals to use, as the 2019 DBIR implied as it indicated phishing was present in the most breaches.

Other research has supported this, finding that 90 percent of successful data hacks and breaches originate from phishing attacks.

However, there are a few ways that these attacks can be spotted, if one is paying attention. Your business can have a firewall and spam protection, but sometimes these threats slip through even the most high-end security tools. Your last line of defense is to educate your staff.
