Penetration Testing

Real-world attack simulations across network, web, and mobile to exploit vulnerabilities and demonstrate actual security risks.

Vulnerability Assessment

Automated and manual scanning to identify security weaknesses in network and web infrastructures.

Wireless & ICS

Wireless exploitation (OSWP) and industrial control system security (GICSP) for high-stakes operational environments.

Testing an AI System?

AI red teaming is our front-door service—adversarial testing for LLM applications, AI agents, and RAG pipelines, mapped to the OWASP Top 10 for LLMs and MITRE ATLAS. It lives on its own page.

Vulnerability Assessment - Network

Network vulnerabilities—misconfigurations, unpatched systems, weak protocols, and architectural gaps—create openings for attackers. Our Network Vulnerability Assessment systematically scans and analyzes your infrastructure to provide a clear, prioritized view of your security posture before vulnerabilities are exploited.

External Assessment

Scanning from the internet to evaluate externally-facing infrastructure. Identifies risks visible to external attackers including firewalls, VPNs, web applications, and mail servers.

Internal Assessment

Scanning from within your network to evaluate internal infrastructure. Identifies risks from insider threats or compromised systems, tests segmentation effectiveness.

Wireless Assessment

Testing wireless network security including rogue access point detection, WPA/WPA2/WPA3 security, and guest network isolation.

Vulnerabilities Identified

  • Unpatched Systems: Outdated OS and applications with known exploits
  • Misconfigurations: Default credentials, unnecessary services, weak access controls
  • Weak Encryption: Outdated SSL/TLS, weak cipher suites
  • Network Segmentation Issues: Enabling lateral movement
  • Access Control Gaps: Overly permissive firewall rules
  • System Hardening: Unnecessary services, excessive privileges
  • Protocol Weaknesses: Outdated protocols (SMBv1, Telnet)
  • Credential Exposure: Default accounts, weak password policies

Deliverables

Each assessment includes severity ratings based on exploitability and business impact, executive summary of risk posture, detailed findings with affected systems, prioritized remediation roadmap, and compliance alignment mapping to standards like NIST and CIS.

Vulnerability Assessment - Web Application

Web applications are frequent targets for attack and often contain vulnerabilities—outdated components, insecure coding practices, logic flaws, and common weaknesses—that can be exploited for data breaches and system compromise. Our Web Vulnerability Assessment identifies these weaknesses before attackers find them.

Application-Level Vulnerabilities

  • SQL Injection & database manipulation
  • Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)
  • Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF)
  • Authentication & session management flaws
  • Business logic bypasses
  • Insecure Direct Object References (IDOR)

Configuration Issues

  • Default credentials & admin accounts
  • Exposed configuration files
  • Directory listing vulnerabilities
  • Debug information exposure
  • Missing security headers

Third-Party Risks

  • Outdated libraries and frameworks
  • Unpatched components with known CVEs
  • Vulnerable APIs and integrations
  • Supply chain risks

Data Protection Issues

  • Insecure data transmission
  • Weak encryption implementation
  • Misconfigured access controls
  • Sensitive data exposure in logs
  • Hardcoded credentials in source code

Testing Methodology

Our approach combines information gathering and reconnaissance, configuration review, automated vulnerability scanning, manual testing of application logic, input validation testing through fuzzing, authentication and authorization testing, and data flow analysis to trace sensitive data.

Penetration Testing - Network

Vulnerability assessments identify weaknesses; penetration testing proves how those weaknesses can be exploited in real-world attack scenarios. Our Network Penetration Testing simulates attacker behavior to validate your security controls, measure incident response capabilities, and demonstrate realistic risk to the organization.

External Penetration Testing

Simulates external attackers attempting to compromise publicly-facing infrastructure. Tests from the internet against externally-visible systems. Evaluates defense-in-depth and identifies pathways for initial compromise.

Internal Penetration Testing

Simulates insider threats and compromised systems. Tests lateral movement and privilege escalation within your network. Assesses internal segmentation and access controls.

Wireless Network Testing

Rogue access point detection, WPA/WPA2/WPA3 security testing, evil twin attack assessment, wireless client security, and guest network isolation verification.

Attack Phases

1. Reconnaissance & Enumeration

Information gathering, service identification, network architecture mapping, and attack vector identification.

2. Vulnerability Exploitation

Attempting to exploit identified vulnerabilities, chaining vulnerabilities for deeper access, and testing security control effectiveness.

3. Persistence & Lateral Movement

Establishing persistent access, expanding throughout the network, and testing segmentation effectiveness.

4. Privilege Escalation

Elevating from compromised user to administrative access, testing access controls and privilege separation, and identifying paths to sensitive systems.

5. Objective Achievement

Attempting to reach defined goals, demonstrating real-world attack impact, and assessing potential damage from successful attacks.

Deliverables

Executive summary for leadership, detailed findings with attack chains, metrics on systems compromised and access duration, prioritized remediation roadmap, and security control recommendations for defense-in-depth.

Penetration Testing - Web Application

Web applications are primary targets for attackers and often contain exploitable flaws in authentication, data access, business logic, and integration layers. Our Web Penetration Testing performs realistic attack simulations against your applications to demonstrate real-world exploitation potential and document how to close gaps.

Attack Scenarios

Authentication & Session Compromise

  • Bypassing authentication controls
  • Session hijacking or fixation
  • Privilege escalation to administrator
  • Credential attacks and MFA weaknesses

  • Path traversal to unauthorized files
  • API manipulation for restricted data

Business Logic Exploitation

  • Circumventing workflows and approval processes
  • Price manipulation or payment bypasses
  • Race conditions and transaction attacks
  • Authorization bypasses

Input Validation & XSS

Integration Risks

Testing Approach

We conduct reconnaissance to map the application, review configurations and security controls, test authentication mechanisms, perform input validation testing across all vectors, analyze business logic for flaws, test access controls and authorization, examine session management, test APIs directly, and analyze client-side security.

Penetration Testing - Mobile (Android/iOS)

Mobile applications access sensitive user data, financial information, and corporate resources, making them attractive targets for attackers. Yet many development teams lack security testing expertise. Our Mobile Penetration Testing identifies security flaws in your iOS and Android applications before they reach users.
