What is Penetration Testing?<\/h4>\n\n \n \n
\n

Penetration testing, or pentesting, is a form of ethical cyber security assessment that seeks to identify, safely exploit and help to remediate vulnerabilities across computer systems, applications and websites. By utilising the same tools and techniques used by cyber adversaries, pen testing replicates the conditions of a genuine attack.<\/p>

    Network Infrastructure Testing<\/h4>\n

    CyberWissen rigorously investigates your network to identify and exploit a wide range of security vulnerabilities. This enables us to establish if assets such as data can be compromised, classify the risks posed to your overall cyber security, prioritise vulnerabilities to be addressed, and recommend actions to mitigate risks identified.<\/p>\n

    Web Application Testing<\/h4>\n

    Web applications play a vital role in business success and are an attractive target for cybercriminals. CyberWissen\u2019s ethical hacking services include website and web app penetration testing to identify vulnerabilities including SQL injection and cross-site scripting problems plus flaws in application logic and session management<\/p>\n

    Wireless Testing<\/h4>\n

    Unsecured wireless networks can enable attackers to enter your network and steal valuable data. Wireless penetration testing identifies vulnerabilities, quantifies the damage these could cause and determines how they should be remediated.<\/p>\n

    People continue to be one of the weakest links in an organisation\u2019s cyber security. CyberWissen\u2019s social engineering pen test service includes a range of email phishing engagements designed to assess the ability of your systems and personnel to detect and respond to a simulated attack exercise.<\/p>\n

    Cloud penetration<\/h4>\n

    With specific rules of engagement set by each provider, cloud penetration testing is not straightforward. Our range of custom cloud security assessments can help your organisation overcome these challenges by uncovering and addressing vulnerabilities that could leave critical assets exposed.<\/p>\n

    Why your organisation needs a pen test <\/h4>\n

    With threats constantly evolving, it’s recommended that every organisation testing at least twice a year, but more frequently when: <\/h3>\n

    What is agile penetration testing?<\/h4>\n\n \n \n
    \n

    Agile penetration testing is a continuous security assessment approach that allows companies to speed up the delivery of secure software to their customers. Unlike traditional pen testing which has the potential to slow down product teams, when properly integrated within the SDLC, agile penetration testing can keep pace with your release schedule. This saves your organisation the time and expense of remediating issues that could have been identified much earlier in the process. Agile pen testing is a programmatic way to unearth and remediate potential risks in an application within the existing timelines and schedules of product releases.<\/p>
