FAQs

There are so many different penetration tests. Which one is best suited for my organisation?

CTRL offer a wide range of penetration testing such as cloud networks, web applications, mobile applications, external networks, internal, wireless networks, social engineering, operational testing and more.

Penetration testing arrangements typically differ depending on your organisation’s industry, size, digital footprint, and relevant regulations. To consider which type of penetration testing is best suited for your organisation, chat to CTRL’s security consultants if you’re in doubt.

How often should my organisation conduct a penetration test?

The frequency of conducting a penetration test will differ from organisation to organisation. Some influencing factors include:

– Industry-specific regulations
– How often the environment changes
– Size of the environment and network

Ultimately, the frequency of penetration testing is adjusted to meet the unique needs of the organisation. Testing too infrequently allows for a window that increases an organisation’s risk exposure. On the other hand, if testing is done too frequently, there is inadequate time to remediate before testing resumes. Therefore, CTRL generally recommend penetration testing to be conducted every 6 – 12 months, as well as providing remediation advice.
