With an authorised, controlled attack simulation, we show you which vulnerabilities can actually be exploited and how you can fix them.
During a penetration test, our ethical hackers try to get into your system with your permission and within pre-agreed limits, using the same methods a real attacker would.
We uncover vulnerabilities before an attacker can exploit them, so you can reduce risk in a targeted way.
Many laws and standards require regular security testing. The report also helps you demonstrate compliance.
With results ranked by severity, you can plan development work and your security strategy.
The goal is to find out whether an attacker could access your data or run code on your system. The areas can be combined into a comprehensive testing strategy.
Routers, switches, firewalls and the rest of your network infrastructure: misconfigurations and exposed attack surfaces.
Typical web vulnerabilities, such as SQL injection, XSS or authentication bypass.
Insecure data storage, authentication bypass and code injection.
Weak encryption, rogue access points and unauthorised access.
We use psychological manipulation to test your policies and processes: will employees give away sensitive information?
A penetration test is a snapshot in time. For continuous protection, you can add a bug bounty program.
We agree every step with you in advance and only work within the approved scope.
Depending on how much information you share in advance, you can choose from three approaches.
The tester gets no prior information and approaches the system from the outside, like a real attacker.
The tester works with partial knowledge and a user account, examining what a logged-in user or a compromised account can do.
The tester has access to the documentation and, where needed, the source code, so the system can be examined as deeply as possible.
| Criterion | Black-box | Grey-box | White-box |
|---|---|---|---|
| Goal | Simulating a real external attack | Simulating an internal user | Simulating a privileged user |
| Access | No prior information | Partial information and a registered account | Full access |
| Advantage | Shows the attacker's perspective | More efficient than black-box | The most thorough, in-depth test |
| Drawback | Time-consuming, some vulnerabilities may stay hidden | Doesn't model an external attack | More data (e.g. source code) has to be shared |
Not sure which one fits you? We’ll help you choose the approach that matches your goals.
Tell us what you’d like tested, and we’ll agree on the scope, the approach and the schedule.
Ethical hackers test your systems, and our consultants help you stay compliant.
