Penetration Testing

Penetration Testing also referred to as ethical hacking, is a proactive strategy that aims to identify vulnerabilities in your organisation's systems, networks, and applications. It entails simulating real-world cyberattacks to pinpoint weaknesses before they can be exploited by malicious actors. By engaging skilled professionals to conduct controlled and targeted tests, you gain invaluable insights into your security posture and can take appropriate measures to fortify your defences.

The consequences of a successful cyberattack can be devastating. Not only can it result in financial losses, damaged reputation, and regulatory non-compliance, but it can also compromise the sensitive data of your customers and stakeholders. In fact, according to recent Australian cybersecurity reports, businesses across the country witnessed a staggering 54% increase in cybercrime incidents in the past year alone. Ignoring the need for robust cybersecurity measures is no longer an option.

Our External Penetration Testing service thoroughly tests your digital assets against potential cyber threats, covering web applications, APIs, servers, and open-source reconnaissance. Our ethical hacking techniques leave no vulnerabilities unturned, ensuring complete system security for your peace of mind.

Here are some of the External Penetration Testing services we offer:

Application Penetration Testing

In today's digital landscape, web-based applications have become the backbone of modern organisations. Whether empowering your staff to perform their tasks efficiently or providing a seamless experience for your customers, ensuring the secure operation of your web applications is paramount. By safeguarding against data loss and costly breaches, we protect your valuable assets and provide you with peace of mind.

Web Service Penetration Testing

Web services, including APIs, serve as the vital link between various systems in your network, enabling seamless communication. Considering the valuable data that these web services transfer, it is of utmost importance to guarantee their immunity against potential attacks. 

Internet Facing Infrastructure Penetration Test

An Internet Facing Infrastructure Penetration Test identifies vulnerabilities in Internet-facing services such as VPNs, Citrix, Mail, and Terminal servers. The test evaluates security measures such as authentication protocols, encryption standards, and access controls to mitigate the risks of a breach.

Open-Source Reconnaissance

OOSINT involves collecting publicly available information to create a comprehensive profile of an organisation, including potential vulnerabilities. It focuses on evaluating informational exposure without attacking target systems. Ethical, responsible use is crucial in the digital age.

Our Internal Penetration Testing service comprehensively assesses your internal infrastructure, identifying and enhancing security. We cover crucial areas such as network, Active Directory, wireless, client portal, server, and client-targeted tests.

Here are some of the Internal Penetration Testing services we offer:

Active Directory Penetration Test

Active Directory Penetration Testing evaluates an organisation's security by simulating attacks to identify vulnerabilities cyber attackers could exploit. The process includes reconnaissance, enumeration, exploitation, and post-exploitation. The goal is to provide actionable insights to strengthen defences against real-world threats.

Wireless Network Penetration Test

Wireless Network Penetration Testing identifies vulnerabilities by simulating attacks and using tools to exploit weaknesses. This helps organisations mitigate potential security risks and improve their security posture, reducing the risk of a breach. It's an essential process for ensuring the security of wireless networks.

Server Penetration Test

Our Server Penetration Testing service assesses server security and identifies vulnerabilities so you can strengthen your cyber defence. Through simulated attacks and techniques like reconnaissance and exploitation, we identify potential weaknesses and provide recommendations to mitigate risks in your physical and virtual server infrastructure. 

Our Penetration Test is specifically tailored to meet the unique requirements of your organisation.

While each test is personalised and cost depends on a lot of factors, such as the amount of information we start with and the type of penetration test you choose, as a general guideline, our certified penetration team conducts comprehensive manual testing that falls within the range of $5,000 to $25,000.

This immersive ethical hack goes beyond the surface, as our team strategically thinks and acts like genuine attackers, ensuring no harm to your network, of course. It offers an authentic experience of a real attack, guaranteeing the utmost security for your organisation.

According to the Australian Cyber Security Centre’s Annual Cyber Security report, the average cost of cybercrime to Australian businesses has risen by 14 per cent from FY21 to FY22, and can cost $39,000 to small businesses, $62,000 to medium businesses, and over $88,000 to large business per incident.
