A strategic approach to ensure your digital product's security.
Identifying vulnerabilities
Conducting a pentest project primarily involves detecting vulnerabilities within an organization's IT infrastructure, networks, and applications. This analysis enhances your security approach and facilitates issue resolution.
Vulnerability Assessment
With penetration testing, businesses can uncover and tackle system and network vulnerabilities, safeguarding sensitive data from cyber risks and breaches.
Improved security posture
With regular pentesting, security is boosted by spotting and proactively fixing vulnerabilities, preventing possible misuse by attackers.
Improve reliability
To meet industry requirements and legal regulations, many businesses engage in regular pentesting to strengthen their system and data security.
How we test
Our workflow
Planning and reconnaissance
Outlining test scope and objectives, identifying target systems and networks, and gathering details about the environment (like network/domain names, mail server) to enhance understanding of target operations and potential vulnerabilities.
Vulnerability analysis
With methods such as vulnerability scanning, network scanning, and configuration review, CyStack pinpoints potential vulnerabilities within the target system.
Exploitation
CyStack strategically leverages identified vulnerabilities to breach security measures, seeking unauthorized access and potential compromise.
Post-exploitation
Within this stage, the focus is on preserving access to the compromised system and, when achievable, amplifying privileges within the system.
Reporting
Compiling a comprehensive report detailing the testing methodology, identified vulnerabilities, and actionable recommendations aimed at enhancing system 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
