Is your company exposed to potential cyber security risk?
How Would You Know?
Modern business demands the mitigation of cyber security risk—ensuring that the likelihood of a breach is stopped before it happens. That, however, is easier said than done. Cyber security remains highly complex, spanning every facet of your digital world.
The reality is, as part of your ongoing business processes, you must now actively identify technical vulnerabilities to reduce your potential for technical risk and harm. In turn, this means keeping your business, your customers, your partners and your employees safe.
It’s for these reasons that you require a professional cyber security partner—one that can help you identify your technically vulnerabilities and risks, and better understand your risk profile. This knowledge will help you make highly educated, informed decisions on what to remediate—and help you gain a better understanding of your risk appetite.
Best of all, the right partner will ultimately help you navigate the road to building a superior cyber security posture—turning technical vulnerabilities into understandable business risk.
what we do to your data
Our holistic, technical deep dives deliver the in-depth information required to secure your product or network properly. Our highly experienced certified researchers and engineers leverage a robust suite of manual tests supported by customized tools. Additionally, our expert Ethical Hackers team identifies weaknesses and exploits vulnerabilities in your systems, network or software—all so these risks can be eliminated or mitigated.
Through our methodology, we can help you identify:
- Business logic vulnerabilities and flaws in applications, weak and unprotected forward-facing processes such as sub-standard website automation, data ingest issues, and more.
- Technical vulnerabilities that exist in your code that may inadvertently be allowing criminals to penetrate your cloud-based data and applications.
- Infrastructure vulnerabilities allowing criminals to infiltrate internal systems and spread throughout your organization.
Options to Suit Your Business Needs
We offer three different types of Penetration Tests—Black Box, Grey Box, and White Box.
You can also easily combine different testing methodologies, depending on your goals and technology. Better yet, we quickly bring in our experts to dive into the details of your infrastructure or application so we can properly assess your needs and determine the appropriate scope.
Black Box
With our Black Box Penetration Test, you will be able to understand the level of risk you face from any type of malicious party—ranging from inexperienced “script kiddies” to exceptionally well-resourced and skilled nation states—who has decided to focus their efforts on your external-facing systems.
Grey Box
Through our Grey Box Penetration Test, we take an interactive, authenticated look at your applications and infrastructure. Our testing is designed to determine how far we can escalate our privileges within your environment and exploit business logic and application weaknesses. Our goal is to show you the end-to-end impact of these risks, so you can take the appropriate actions to secure your assets.
White Box
In our White Box Penetration Test, we leverage any available system and application design information, along with privileged accounts, to fully explore all attack scenarios within your environment. This open-book approach explores all application, infrastructure and environmental factors at length, providing you with the most comprehensive recommendations to address present risks.
Our multi-step process
This isn’t your average penetration test.
Our process includes the option to add retesting and attestation as proof that your app or infrastructure is secure.
Discovery
A robust discovery is critical to proper test scoping and useful results. We dig deep to understand your goals, your context, and the specific assets you need to protect—ensuring nothing gets missed.
Scoping
Our scoping documents are clear and comprehensive. They outline the tools, methods, timing, team and rationale so you understand exactly what to expect—plus the how, who, when, why and how much.
Vulnerability Analysis
We identify all potential vulnerabilities, then take things to the next level by validating those vulnerabilities so you aren’t wasting resources rectifying vulnerabilities that don’t matter. We perform active and passive vulnerability testing and document all attack avenues in an attack tree.
Exploitation
This is where we use the information we’ve gathered to gain access to your systems. Options include cracking passwords, brute force attacks, radio frequency access, VPNs and more. Once we’ve gained access, we see what activities we are able to accomplish “behind the scenes.”
Reporting
A Cycura penetration testing report tells you exactly what we discovered, includes proofs of concepts so your team can recreate the vulnerability, addresses the business impacts of the findings, and recommends actions to rectify vulnerabilities. Our reports are clearly written so they are easy to understand and act on. Our goal is to empower your team to make changes, or provide the information you need to quickly engage with a partner to address issues.
Follow-Up
Every testing engagement includes an invitation to discuss next steps—either for support in addressing vulnerabilities, or confirmation that all issues have been rectified. We’re available for retesting and can provide proof, in the form of a legal attestation, that you can show to a prospective client or your CIO.
