An effective approach to secure your digital products

Identifying vulnerabilities

The primary goal of a pentest project is to identify vulnerabilities in an organization's IT infrastructure, networks, and applications. This can help you better understand your security posture and take steps to remediate any issues that are identified

Vulnerability Assessment

Penetration testing can help businesses identify and address vulnerabilities in their systems and networks, thereby safeguarding sensitive data from cyberattacks and data breaches.

Improved security posture

Conducting regular pentesting can help improve your overall security posture by identifying weaknesses and addressing them before they can be exploited by attackers

Improve reliability

Many businesses are required to comply with industry regulations or legal requirements that mandate regular pentesting to ensure the security of their systems and data

How we test

The workflow

Planning and reconnaissance

Defining the scope and objectives of the test, identifying the target systems and networks, and gathering information about the target environment (e.g., network and domain names, mail server) to better understand how a target works and its potential vulnerabilities

Vulnerability analysis

CyStack identifies potential vulnerabilities in the target system using techniques such as vulnerability scanning, network scanning, and configuration review

Exploitation

CyStack attempts to exploit one or more identified vulnerabilities in order to gain unauthorized access or compromise the system's security

Post-exploitation

This phase involves maintaining access to the compromised system and escalating privileges within the system, if possible

Reporting

Preparing a report that summarizes the testing process, the vulnerabilities identified, and the recommendations for improving the system's security

The method

Title

Goal
Access Level
Pros
Cons

Black-box

Simulate a true cyber attack
Zero access or internal information
Most realistic
Time consuming and more likely to miss a vulnerability

Gray-box

Assess an organization's vulnerability to insider threats
Some internal access and internal information
More efficient than black-box and saves on time and cost
No real cons

White-box

Simulate an attack where an attacker gains access to a privileged account
Complete open access to applications and systems
More comprehensive, less likely to miss a vulnerability, and faster
More data is required to be released to the tester and more expensive

The vulnerabilities

Infrastructure and cloud security misconfigurations
Remote code execution
Business logic flaws
Well-known vulnerabilities (1-day, CVE)
Broken authentication and access control
Sever-side injection
Insecure Deserialization

Tested by a team of security experts

The CyStack Audit Team is a group of highly skilled security testers who use a goal-oriented approach to testing, refined through years of experience and extensive testing. Our team members have a unique blend of app development and security testing expertise, enabling them to conduct comprehensive security evaluations that uncover potential risks for organizations.

Members of this team are also regular speakers at world-known cyber security conferences and also talented bug hunters who discovered many critical vulnerabilities in the products and are acknowledged in the Hall of Fame of global tech giants such as IBM, HP, Daimler, Microsoft, Alibaba, etc.

CyStack also offers a bug bounty platform WhiteHub.net that enables access to over 3000 security researchers to discover critical vulnerabilities in products, including those not discoverable by using traditional solutions and automated tools.

Build credibility with your partners and customers

After finishing the penetration testing, you will receive a security certificate which serves as proof that your system has undergone rigorous testing and has been certified safe by our team of security experts.

By obtaining this certificate, you can demonstrate to your customers and partners that you take security seriously and have taken steps to ensure the protection of their sensitive data. This can also be used to showcase your commitment to security and can help differentiate your company from competitors who may not have undergone similar testing.
