Full-Suite Pen Testing
A Full-Suite Penetration Test imitates attackers from multiple avenues. From a technical aspect: this includes from the perspective of an Internal Attacker or disgruntled employee, an External Attacker attempting to breach the perimeter from the internet, or an attacker attempting to exploit coding weaknesses in Web Applications to access backend databases. Non-technical penetration testing includes attempting to trick staff through fraudulent emails, call impersonations, or onsite impersonations attacks to breach physical security.
This test inspects technological weaknesses and also weaknesses in people that could be used to disrupt the confidentiality, availability or integrity of the network, effectively allowing the organisation to address each weakness with confidence.
Web Application Pen Testing
The public facing web applications and servers are tested for information and vulnerabilities are identified. This information can then be used for extracting sensitive information, denial of service attacks or gaining access to backend networks and databases. By identifying these weak points, defences can be put in place to strengthen the web application posture.
Internal Pen Testing
Identify weaknesses in a network, simulating an attack from a disgruntled malicious employee individual or an attacker that has breached external defences. Understanding what information can be extracted in such an attack allows the organisation to implement changes to strengthen the network from within.
External Pen Testing
The network is attacked from the outside, simulating a remote hacking attempt. This can identify which systems can be seen by would be attackers to allow an organisation to deploy countermeasures enhancing their network perimeter.
Social Engineering
Through human interaction and deception tactics, an attacker can gain access to internal resources or on site assets under the pretence of legitimate activity. This can then be used to formulate staff procedures to mitigate the inherent weaknesses that stem from human trust. Social Engineering attacks include Phishing Attacks, Phone Attacks and Onsite Attacks which also test the physical security controls.
Operational Tech Testing
As complex technology environments are upgraded and changed, certain elements may not function as originally intended and have subsequently become weak points over time. An attacker can use these legacy systems as a means to gain access to the broader network resources. By conducting operational tech testing, these weak points can be identified and addressed to strengthen overall system defence.
API Testing
API testing is a type of software testing that involves testing application programming interfaces (APIs) directly without using a standard user interface. This is to determine if they meet expectations for functionality, reliability, performance, and security. Often API’s will disclose more information than they intend. This opens up vulnerabilities and potential attack vectors. By finding these issues, they can be mitigated in advance to enhance the overall security of the web application. The testing concentrates on the business logic layer of the software architecture. Logic errors, information disclosure, session management and user access controls are core areas tested. If these are improperly configured, they can be some of the greatest threats to your applications security. API testing as an assessment of how securely information is communicated from the application request and response from the database. This is an essential testing component in ensuring your application, data and users’ information always remains safe.
