What is Network Penetration Testing?

Network penetration testing is a type of assessment that identifies vulnerabilities within network infrastructures, systems and devices. Network pentests can be performed from two different perspectives, targeting public networks accessible from the internet or internal corporate networks. Conducting network penetration tests is required by various standards for regulatory compliance, such as PCI-DSS, ISO27001 and SOC 1 / SOC 2.

Our Network Penetration Testing Services

Our approach to network penetration testing goes beyond a simple vulnerability scan, which helps identify vulnerabilities and more complex scenarios of exploitation that are impossible to detect with automated tools. With decades-long combined experience in penetration testing, our team of specialists identifies, exploits and documents even the most subtle network vulnerabilities.

What is the purpose of network penetration test?

A network pentest is a type of hacking simulation designed to identify cybersecurity vulnerabilities that could be used to compromise sensitive data, gain access to critical systems or even to hijack administrative permissions. Network penetration testing can also target perimeter security controls as well as network devices such as routers and switches.

What information is required to scope a network pentest?

The information needed to scope a network penetration test is dependent upon whether the assessment is internal or external. Information typically needed to scope network projects includes the total quantity of internal IPs and external IPs to be tested, subnets, and the number of physical locations.

What are the deliverables of a network penetration test?

Our penetration test includes a detailed report including all vulnerabilities discovered, the level of risk each vulnerability posed, the difficulty of exploitation and each respective recommended measure.

Can an internal pentest be performed remotely?

Most of our internal penetration tests are conducted remotely using your infrastructure and technologies in place, such as VPNs or remote desktop solutions. We can also provide various in-house solutions, such as our Vumetric teleporter device, designed to test internal networks.
