Description

Penetration Testing & Vulnerability Assessment

Features:

• Asset discovery & inventory: Identify live hosts, services, and exposed applications.

• Automated vulnerability scanning: Use industry tools to find known CVEs, misconfigurations, and missing patches.

• Manual penetration testing: Skilled testers attempt to exploit weaknesses (web, network, API, wireless, cloud, AD, etc.) to validate real-world risk.

• Threat modeling & attack path analysis: Map how an attacker could move from one compromise to higher-impact assets.

• Privilege escalation & post-exploitation checks: Test lateral movement, credential harvesting, and persistence techniques.

• Application security testing: Static (SAST) and dynamic (DAST) testing of web/mobile apps and APIs.

• Cloud & container assessment: Examine misconfigurations in cloud services, containers, and orchestration platforms.

• Reporting & remediation guidance: Prioritized findings with impact ratings, technical evidence, and actionable remediation steps.

• Re-test & verification: Validate that remediations were implemented correctly (optional follow-up test).

• Compliance mapping: Align findings to standards (e.g., ISO 27001, PCI-DSS, NIST, GDPR) on request.

Methodology & Scope Options:

• Scope: External, internal, web app, API, mobile, cloud, wireless, social engineering (phishing), or full red-team.

• Approach: Black-box (no prior knowledge), Gray-box (limited info), White-box (full disclosure).

• Frequency: Quarterly or biannual scans plus annual/full pentest; after major changes or before certifications/mergers.

Benefits:

• Reduced risk of breaches and data loss

• Prioritized, actionable remediation roadmap

• Proof for auditors and compliance programs

• Improved detection and incident response readiness

• Evidence to justify security investments
