Our penetration testing services are designed to assess the resilience of your product against potential cyber threats. By simulating real-world attacks, we identify vulnerabilities before malicious actors can exploit them, providing you with the insights needed to enhance your security posture.
Before delving into the various types and methodologies of penetration testing, it’s important to define what we mean by “product.” Whether you develop web applications delivered as SaaS, mobile applications across platforms, server infrastructure, or even a combination of these, we tailor our services to meet your unique needs.
We understand that each organization has its own definition of “product” and distinct security requirements. Our expert pentesting team is equipped to conduct comprehensive security assessments, customize threat scenarios, and adapt to your attack surface, risk appetite, and specific scope. We ensure that our penetration testing aligns with your objectives, providing actionable insights to fortify your defenses.
Our penetration testing services are categorized into three primary methodologies, each
offering different levels of access and coverage:
Each of these testing methodologies can be customized to your specific needs, with the primary difference being the level of coverage, not complexity. We tailor our approach to ensure the best fit for your product and your security goals.
Simulates a real-world attack by mimicking the actions of an external threat actor. With no internal information provided, we rely solely on publicly available data—just as an actual attacker would. This method focuses on identifying vulnerabilities from an outsider’s perspective.
Offers a middle ground, where our team is provided with limited internal information to enhance the scope of the testing. This might include product diagrams, network architecture, or user account access. With these additional insights, we can uncover vulnerabilities that would otherwise remain hidden in a purely external attack.
Provides the most comprehensive coverage. Our team will have access to everything you can offer, including source code, private APIs, product demos, and discussions with your product teams. This allows us to perform an in-depth analysis, uncovering vulnerabilities across the entire system. Whitebox testing ensures the most thorough review of your security posture.
Each engagement is tailored to your specific requirements and every test can (and will) be fully
customized based on your specific goals, attack surface, and security needs. This customization begins during our pre-
engagement discussions to ensure we cover what matters most to your organization.
Every penetration test includes a vulnerability assessment, but vulnerability assessments don’t provide a comprehensive penetration test. Vulnerability assessments are designed to identify potential weaknesses in an application, but without attempting to exploit them. They are ideal for companies seeking to understand their theoretical security posture in the face of potential threats, without going too deep into exploitation and confirmation phase.
A vulnerability assessment provides a detailed report of identified vulnerabilities, prioritizing them based on severity. This helps businesses take a proactive approach to security by addressing issues before they can be exploited by malicious actors.
When it comes to cybersecurity, there are no one-size-fits-all solutions. That’s why we always adopt a flexible approach toward all our clients. However, regardless of the project specifications, we always work and build around the industry’s best practices.
