Network Penetration Testing

Network penetration testing, a type of ethical hacking, is a method of evaluating the security of your network using simulated attacks to identify and exploit vulnerabilities in your network infrastructure. Malicious attacks are simulated using a variety of manual techniques supported by automated tools. Our penetration testing methodology goes beyond the detection process of simple scanning software to identify and prioritize the most vulnerable areas of your network and recommend actionable solutions.

Why Pivot Point?

Our team of certified network security professionals have been protecting organizations from cyber-attacks since 2001.

We find the “leaks” in your system before damage occurs. Whether you have never performed a pen test or are searching for a new partner, our proven process allows us to confidently assure you your network is safe from unethical intrusions.

To deliver the best possible result, Pivot Point Security performs CREST-approved penetration testing methods. CREST is an internationally-recognized, non-profit organization that provides accreditation to security organizations who employ industry best practices.

Our Penetration Testing Methodology:

We employ a proven penetration testing methodology which will be tailored to fit your company’s specific needs.

This process involves deeply understanding your current systems, exploiting vulnerabilities within those systems, and providing solutions to remediate your weak spots.

Our proven TPRM process is a cycle that revolves around you, the client.

We recommend White Box Penetration Testing to make this assessment as effective as possible. White Box testing allows us to test your most vulnerable and/or valuable assets from the start, rather than starting with a blank slate and spending time on less significant areas of your network.

Our penetration testing process will generate a detailed assessment of your company’s network security strengths and weaknesses, as well as action items to guide you through the remediation process.
