Network Security Testing
Services
Scope Definition
Identify the components and assets within the network that need to be tested, including routers, switches, firewalls, servers, endpoints, and wireless access points.
Penetration Testing
Simulating real-world attacks to exploit vulnerabilities and gain unauthorized access to network resources. This helps assess the network's ability to withstand and detect attacks.
Determine the Testing Objectives
Such as identifying network vulnerabilities, assessing the effectiveness of security controls, and evaluating network architecture.
Network Architecture Review
Evaluating the overall network design, segmentation, and access controls to identify potential security gaps.
Vulnerability Scanning
Automated tools and manual approaches scan the network for known vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and weak points. This helps in identifying potential entry points for attackers.
Internal and External Testing
Internal and External Testing involves assessing the security of the internal network and evaluating the network's perimeter security considering the security attack.
Reporting
Creating a comprehensive report detailing identified vulnerabilities, their severity, and potential impact on the network.
Remediation
Providing actionable recommendations for mitigating the vulnerabilities and collaborating with security teams to prioritize and implement security measures for mitigation.
