IT infrastructure supports the applications, services, systems and communications that are essential to how an organisation operates. Servers, firewalls, network devices, wireless networks, Internet-facing services and other assets may contain vulnerabilities that allow partial or total compromise of the environment.
The goal of an Infrastructure Pentest is to identify those vulnerabilities before they can be exploited by criminals, allowing fixes to be applied proactively and significantly reducing the risk of security incidents.
Depending on the agreed scope, the assessment can cover both internal infrastructure and Internet-facing assets.
An Internal Network Pentest simulates the scenario in which an attacker has already gained access to the corporate environment, whether through a compromised device, valid credentials, physical access, third parties or any other attack vector.
The goal is to assess which vulnerabilities can be exploited, which systems can be compromised and how far an intruder could move through the internal environment and reach sensitive information.
This type of assessment helps the company understand the impact of a possible compromise of the internal network and identify opportunities to strengthen security controls.
Depending on the agreed scope, the assessment may include:
An External Network Pentest simulates an attack carried out by an intruder with no prior access to the company environment, assessing only the authorised assets exposed to the Internet.
The goal is to identify vulnerabilities that could allow unauthorised access, exposure of sensitive information, compromise of systems or use of the infrastructure as an entry point for broader attacks.
This assessment makes it possible to identify existing risks before they can be exploited by criminals.
Depending on the agreed scope, the assessment may include:
The assessment is carried out using internationally recognised methodologies, adapted to the agreed scope and to the characteristics of the environment.
Most of the tests are executed manually by specialists, with automated tools used only to support reconnaissance, enumeration and initial validation.
During the assessment we analyse vulnerabilities related to asset configuration, service exposure, authentication, access control, privilege management, network segmentation and the other security controls present in the infrastructure.
All tests are carried out in a controlled manner and previously authorised by the company, seeking to minimise impact on normal operation of the environment.
At the end of the assessment we deliver a technical report and an executive report containing everything needed to support the remediation of the vulnerabilities identified.
The report includes:
Alongside the technical report we also provide a Penetration Test Attestation Letter, a document that certifies the tests were carried out and can be used as evidence in audits, compliance processes, vendor approval and with clients and business partners.
