Assess the vulnerabilities of your internal and external network with SharkStriker’s network pen testing services that are carried out by certified pen-testers and cybersecurity experts.
Network Penetration Testing, often referred to as "pen testing" or "ethical hacking," is a simulated cyberattack on a computer network, system, or application to identify vulnerabilities and weaknesses that could be exploited by malicious actors. The purpose of a network penetration test is to assess the security posture of an organization's network infrastructure and to help identify and mitigate potential risks.
Here's an overview of the key aspects of Network Penetration Testing:
Simulation of Real-world Attacks: A network penetration test simulates the tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) that real attackers may use. This may include attempting to exploit known vulnerabilities, conducting reconnaissance, and attempting unauthorized access.
Authorized and Legal Activity: Penetration testing is conducted with the explicit permission of the organization or entity being tested. It is an authorized and legal activity carried out by skilled professionals who follow a set of ethical guidelines.
Scope and Rules of Engagement: Before a penetration test begins, there is a defined scope and rules of engagement that outline what systems, applications, and networks are included in the test, as well as any limitations or restrictions on the testing activities.
Identification of Vulnerabilities: The primary goal of a penetration test is to identify vulnerabilities that could potentially be exploited by malicious actors. These vulnerabilities could range from misconfigurations, weak passwords, unpatched software, to more complex security flaws.
Exploitation and Proof of Concept: Once vulnerabilities are identified, the penetration tester may attempt to exploit them to demonstrate the potential impact of an actual attack. This often involves gaining unauthorized access to systems or extracting sensitive information.
Continuous Improvement: Penetration testing is not a one-time activity.
