What is the security level of your system currently?
Do you need to assess how secure your system is currently? Or measure what are the entry possibilities for malicious attacks? If the answer is yes, you need to know the Pentest action, also known as penetration testing. Conceptually speaking, Pentenes is a test performed on the system to assess the quality of security and which attacks are actually inhibited at that time. In this way, it is possible to measure whether the system has vulnerabilities, seeking effective action plans to create a more functional protection barrier. Because of this, pentest is widely used by companies that work with sensitive data such as accounting offices or airlines, for example.
How is the service done?
When hiring a Pentest service, a professional with real knowledge in information security and networks, performs a series of attacks against the contracting company's system. At that time, he can know nothing about the current conditions, to avoid any targeted practice already thinking about this system. Thus, the professional performs the attacks and can set up this process following several guidelines, such as:
- Social engineering;
- Check firewalls;
- Analysis of used ports;
- Denial of service;
- Password analysis;
- How to get company news in the media;
- Scanning for exploits;
- Find vulnerabilities.
