Delivered in partnership with Pentest People - our joint CREST, Check and NCSC-accredited expertise, and pioneering SecurePortal platform, make our joint service one of the most comprehensive, affordable and qualitative Penetration Tests available today.
Here's how we do it ...
Scoping
We start by setting the parameters for the project. Once agreed, Pentest People use their SecurePortal to share scoping documents and securely communicate project updates as the penetration test gears up to launch.
Recon
Using the public domain, search engines and public records - we'll collect collect information about your organisation and network. In the case of an internal assessment, we'll also investigate your wired and wireless networks for network protocol information, addressing details, and user credentials.
Next, we'll look for active hosts and any open ports to see what services are running, and the host operating system.
Assessment
First, we'll check your operating system and services for known vulnerabilities and privileged access levels that can be achieved. Don't worry, we don't run check's that'll affect services (but they can be can be included by request).
We'll attempt to access any services we find that require a username and password with the default password, and also commonly used username and password combinations.
Reporting
Next, we present you with an executive summary of our findings and a more detailed report. We include:
- Key findings
- Top ten remedial action recommendations
- A table of hosts, including open ports identified, services available on those ports, identified vulnerabilities and remediation advice.
- All identified vulnerabilities, categorised by severity level.
Presentation
Your executive summary and full report are are uploaded to the secure document area of Pentest People's SecurePortal. Next, we'll schedule a de-brief meeting.
Here, we'll discuss any major issues arising from the assessment and answer any questions you have.
