Strategic Approach to Penetration Testing

Not every penetration testing technique works. Avoid taking the chance of using a poor penetration testing strategy as it may cost you a lot of money. You should be aware that, according to SANS Institute, “75% of configured vulnerabilities went undetected”. For this reason, businesses should routinely engage in penetration tests with a reliable cybersecurity firm. 

Your critical data is becoming more and more important every day. It’s essential for your company’s revenue because, in the event of a breach, clients and partners might stop doing business with you. Your organization’s data protection and privacy programmes will be held to a higher standard of transparency and fairness by your clients and business partners. They’ll count on you to keep your partners’ information private. You won’t be able to defend against cyber attackers if you don’t understand the threats and even breaches that are currently present in your company. There are many negative effects on a business after a breach, such as the possibility of losing significant RFPs and bids. You might end up being the data chain’s weakest link.

Determine Your Weak Spots before Hackers Do 

Understanding how an organisation can be hacked is the best way to prevent it from happening. A penetration test is an imitated hack carried out by certified cybersecurity professionals. 

A knowledgeable attacker can access your systems through a variety of methods. An attacker will search for flaws in the firmware of the target device, the capacity to download unsigned updates, or the use of a low-security FTP protocol, among other things and to be protected from all of these vulnerabilities, you need a security team with extensive cybersecurity skills and experience in 

  1. Auditing your environment effectively 
  2. Making quick decisions in crafting the type of penetration test that is required to identify all threats in your environment 
  3. Knowing how to provide solutions to protect your data

You get a top cybersecurity team in the business working to protect you from online threats using our cutting-edge knowledge, experience, and skills. Additionally you will receive an executive summary and technical report detailing all the environment-related variables that are incorrect and any instances in which we were successful in obtaining your data. 

Beware of providers who only perform penetration tests using AI to reduce costs. Currently, human intelligence is superior to that of machines. Additionally, if you hire a highly skilled cyber security team to perform a thorough penetration test, they will know what kind of test and methodology best suit your organisation to identify threats and offer the best defences against cyberattacks.

 Our Methodology 

Every cybersecurity firm will use a different methodology when conducting penetration tests. Our company, CyberArchy, has a methodology that is built around quickly identifying threats. Working with their clients’ best interests in mind. About 85% of tests are conducted manually in our approach, and 15% are conducted automatically. As we need advanced human skills and experience to think like the hacker who is planning an attack on your systems because automated testing alone is ineffective. Penetration tests that use 100% automation are not comprehensive, lack real-world 

scenarios that do not test all controls, and create many false positives. Critical application centric vulnerabilities are manually identified by CyberArchy using a thorough, risk-based methodology.
