Infrastructure Penetration Testing

Who is it for?

Infrastructure testing is for organisations who wish to gain a real-world view of their security posture. For example, you may want to know if your customer data or staff payroll information is being stored and transmitted in a secure manner.

Alternatively, you might need to know the security weaknesses in your Internet-facing IT systems — such as email servers, routers, and web servers that host e-commerce websites.
If you’ve changed your systems, vulnerabilities could have been introduced.

We may also find services that you didn’t know you had exposed.

How can we help?

We use a range of manual techniques, automated security tools and a proprietary methodology, to identify, validate, and exploit security vulnerabilities. Each test we conduct is individually tailored to your company’s requirements, and the specific systems to be tested.

We’re able to test individual systems right through to complex and extensive enterprise-wide infrastructures. We can also focus our investigation on your company’s responsiveness to a particular type of attack, such as social engineering or ransomware.

What we test

By utilising similar tools and techniques to real-world threat actors, our team will identify, verify and priorities exploitable weaknesses within your infrastructure. Our tests include:

• Known Vulnerabilities – Missing security updates is a common weakness that can lead to services, operating systems and applications being compromised.
• Default Misconfiguration – Systems are often configured by default with compatibility in mind which can lead to insecurities such as weak encryption being used
• Access Control – Authentication systems often have weaknesses such as username enumeration, lack of brute force protection, or even just common and weak passwords.
• Service Flaws – Services accounts may have weaknesses that allow a threat actor to leverage the service for privilege escalation, such as insecure permissions or executable storage.
