Penetration testing of IT infrastructure

threat identification

These are controlled simulations that help identify vulnerabilities in networks, systems, and devices. They enable organizations to remediate vulnerabilities before they are exploited by real attackers, significantly improving their security posture.

They provide a complete picture of an organization's security posture. These tests not only identify potential vulnerabilities and threats, but also assess the effectiveness of the security mechanisms in place. They are also an excellent tool for verifying compliance with applicable regulations and industry standards.

How does it work?

1

Identifying vulnerabilities

Experts run tests that simulate real-world attacks to identify potential vulnerabilities - just like finding weaknesses in a defense system.

2

Secure processes

Every vulnerability identified is a step toward strengthening your organization's security processes.

3

Mitigate risk

Testing helps reduce the risks associated with operational losses, data breaches, and reputational threats.

4

Uninterrupted operations

The entire process is performed in a controlled manner, ensuring continuous, uninterrupted operation of production systems.

Why should you use IT infrastructure penetration testing?

A proactive approach to IT security enables early detection and remediation of vulnerabilities before they become targets of cyber-attacks. In addition, conducting penetration tests helps organizations meet regulatory requirements such as ISO 27001, GDPR, DORA, and NIS 2, ensuring compliance with data protection standards and security norms.

Penetration testing of infrastructure – why is it worth it?

Penetration testing plays a key role in ensuring business continuity by identifying and eliminating potential threats that could lead to downtime or serious incidents. Through regular testing, organizations can:

Meeting legal requirements

Regulations such as NIS2, GDPR, PCI DSS, and ISO 27001 require the implementation of systematic security measures, including penetration testing.

Ensuring business continuity

Early identification and remediation of vulnerabilities protects against system disruptions that could impact critical business processes.

Data protection and reputation management

Identifying and fixing security vulnerabilities minimizes the risk of data breaches, costly incidents, and negative publicity.

Increasing awareness within the organization

Testing provides IT teams with knowledge of real threats and highlights areas for improvement, fostering a security-conscious culture within the organization.

Enhancing security levels

Each report provides clear and practical recommendations for eliminating vulnerabilities, tailored to the specifics of your system.

Types of IT infrastructure penetration tests

Each type of penetration test reflects different attack scenarios that may occur in the real world. Using a variety of techniques, we can thoroughly analyze potential threats to your systems, regardless of their complexity.

1

Black box

These tests are performed without prior knowledge of the infrastructure and simulate the actions of an external attacker. Based solely on publicly available information, they realistically replicate potential attacks. This allows organizations to assess their security, detect external threats, and verify the effectiveness of existing defenses.

2

Grey box

These tests are based on partial knowledge of the systems, such as access to selected data or technical documentation. They simulate attack scenarios performed by insiders, such as employees with limited privileges. This methodology helps to better understand the potential threats posed by insider access and enables more effective system protection.

3

White box

Testing is performed with full visibility into the infrastructure, including source code, system architecture, and detailed configurations. This allows for in-depth security analysis and identification of even the most complex vulnerabilities. White box testing ensures a comprehensive system assessment that considers both potential vulnerabilities in the code and the security implementation.

Execution process

Every penetration testing project follows these steps:

1.

Needs analysis and goal definition

We begin with a detailed discussion of your requirements and expectations, and define the test objectives and execution conditions.

2.

Refining project details

We determine the test scope, environments, and success criteria to ensure full alignment with your business needs.

3.

Project kick-off

We begin our collaboration with an initial meeting to discuss the action plan, schedule, and mutual team roles.

4.

Scope and environment verification

We verify the readiness of the test environment and the defined scope to ensure that everything aligns with the agreed upon assumptions.

5.

Task execution

We perform the penetration test according to proven standards and methodologies, ensuring full transparency and regular progress updates.

6.

Findings report

We deliver a report with identified vulnerabilities, remediation recommendations, CVSS scores, CVE database references, OWASP Top 10 mapping, and a summary for both technical and non-technical audiences.

7.

Consultations

We discuss the report to help your team fully understand and effectively implement the recommendations to mitigate the identified vulnerabilities.

8.

Re-tests

After your team implements fixes, we suggest re-testing to verify the effectiveness of the changes made.

9.

Feedback after re-tests

We provide insights from re-tests that indicate which vulnerabilities have been successfully addressed and which require further attention.

Why trust us?

Every project we undertake is equally important to us. We always strive to deliver solutions that not only enhance security but also provide a deep understanding of processes. Our references, certifications, and experience confirm that quality, responsibility, and understanding our clients' needs are the foundations of every collaboration with us.
