Penetration Testing Explained, Ethical Hacking and Application Security…

Our penetration testing team’s tests are from both an external and internal perspective; At completion of our testing we provide you with a detailed report, which includes recommended actions for improving your security measures. Sometimes referred to as “ethical hacking”, penetration testing is an active evaluation of an organisation’s information security measures.

A penetration test can significantly help safeguard against many network security threats, including financial compromise, damage to reputation, business risk exposure, unwanted legal issues and loss of internet presence.

With the advent of sophisticated, automated exploitation tools and “point-and-click” hacking, anyone with a network connection (internet, corporate, internal) is potentially vulnerable. However, there are effective steps that can be taken to anticipate and mitigate the risks for organisations both large and small.

We run these tests to identify and assess potential threats to software applications, including bespoke or proprietary systems.

Penetration testing and application security assessments are as we all know essentially technical audits, providing assurance that security vulnerabilities and flaws are mitigated and the likelihood of becoming hacked is significantly reduced.
