When you should carry out pen tests

Required by Clients

When requested by a client or business partner as part of the set up of a new business opportunity.

New Version/ Users

Before publishing new application versions, features, functionalities, upgrades to an existing application or introducing an application to a large number of users.

Periodic Testing

Carry out regular penetration testing as set out in your company's information security policy.

Compliance

As a requirement of the security framework that you want to comply with, such as ISO 27001, SOC2 and others, or as a preparation for a third-party audit.

Testing Approaches

We carry out penetration tests on the following programs and platforms:

Black Box

The tester tests the application with no prior knowledge. They may be given the name of the company and the domains in the scope. This strategy imitates real-life hacking attempts of malicious actors.

White Box

The tester is given full information about the target applications. This information includes the application source code, application designs, and other documentation. This strategy is the most comprehensive testing approach.

Grey Box

The tester is given partial knowledge of the applications’ internal structure, technologies, and business logic. This approach speeds up the test process since it provides some understanding regarding the company’s assets and potential attack vectors, but also maintains an element of obscurity.

Stealth Mode

This testing approach leaves minimal traces and artifacts behind, giving a true test of your detection, alerting, and purpose-related capabilities.

Quick & Dirty

This testing approach utilises automated tools to perform relatively quick assessments on large scope and low risk applications and systems, in a constrained time frame or budget.
