One of the main assets of every modern company is its data. Data represents the strategic information of any company, such as its business plan, engineering development and know-how, accounting data, personnel data and so on.

All this information is confidential and only available to those who need it for the benefit of the organisation.

In the information era we live in, companies have all this classified information on computers, which communicate on Internet and on other networks.

It is essential that the network must be secured so it won't allow intruders.

Knowing that a security incident could endanger the existence of the company, decision makers should invest time, money and energy in hiring the right people to secure the gateway router, the servers and other network equipments.

No one could guarantee 100% that the network administrator or the independent consultant has done his job right, has installed all the patches, has secured all the services, has harden the applications and so on. To protect your network and data from a determined attack, you need a good assurance and understanding that the security policy was properly implemented as required.

A penetration test is the process of evaluating the right implementation of the information security measures. It guaranties that the security policy has been applied and that the risk of security incidents is minimal.

That's why an independent security audit becomes a MUST for any company, which wants to be sure that its data is well protected.

It is also encouraged that this independent security audit shall take place on a regular basis to reflect the unscheduled things that have changed since the last one. These tests are important for a company so that it doesn’t fall for a sense of security when it doesn’t exist.

There is a number of ways we could undertake the testing, but the most common procedure is that the security measures are actively examined for design weaknesses, implementation flaws and known vulnerabilities.

We will perform security audits and security penetration tests in a controlled manner so that the activity of your network is not affected.

We conduct the audit in one of the two ways; black-box (with no prior knowledge of the infrastructure that is tested – like any back-hat hacker would do) or white-box (with complete knowledge of the infrastructure which is tested – like any sustained attack conducted from the inside or from the people who intentionally have targeted your company for a specific reason).

Basically we:

• Establish the parameter and the boundaries

• Choose the adequate set of tests which fits exactly in your network design

• Follow a methodology: nothing is random, everything will be planned and documented

• Present the results of the security audit comprehensively in a report along with the recommended measures to Executive, Management staff or the person in charge.

The quality of the penetration testing service that you will receive is the direct result of the quality of the consultants that will be supplied for the project. We can provide you a well-conducted penetration test that not only will show the vulnerabilities in your network, but will also help you to determine whether your operational practices, equipment, and policies are up to their task. We can offer advice on how to secure your network or individual servers and PC's against any type of risk and ensure your data is safe from prying eyes.
