Some of the key benefits of penetration testing include:
Manage the Risk
A penetration test will show you the list of vulnerabilities in the target environment and the risks associated with it. Each risk is categorized as either critical, medium, or low-risk issues. Knowing your level of risk will help you prioritize remediation.
Increase Business Continuity
Cyberattacks hurt business continuity. And insecure systems suffer from more downtime than secure ones. Penetration testing will show you your vulnerabilities. And if you address those issues, the likelihood of experiencing downtime is minimal.
Evaluate Security Investments
Penetration testing will help show if your current security infrastructure is strong enough to withstand a cyberattack. As a result, it will show you what security technologies are worth your time and money.
Verify Existing Security Programs
The only way to know if your security tools work is to test them. Pen tests serve as quality assurance checks, so you will also find out what policies are most effective and what tools provide the highest ROI.
Meet Regulatory Requirements
Penetration testing helps organizations address the compliance aspects of regulations and industry best practices. And for auditors, these tests can also verify that other mandated security measures are in place.
Increase Confidence in Security Posture
By regularly putting your security infrastructure and team through their paces, you’ll know how your organization will fare during a real-time attack. With each pen test, your team will grow and learn from their mistakes.
How does Penetration Testing Work?
​
Penetration testing is an essential component of any comprehensive cybersecurity strategy. It involves simulating a real-world cyber attack on your organization's IT infrastructure to identify any vulnerabilities or weaknesses that could be exploited by malicious actors.
​
But how exactly does penetration testing work? In this page, we'll provide an overview of the process, including the different stages involved and the tools and techniques used by penetration testing professionals. We'll also discuss the benefits of conducting regular penetration testing for your business, and how it can help you stay one step ahead of cyber threats.

1. Company Overview
We will meet with you, either in-person or online, to discuss your business’s current security posture. We will then define your goals for the pen test and gather intelligence on your infrastructure.
4. Maintain Access
Once our testers break through, they will now try to maintain their foothold. They will use advanced persistent threats (APTs) to grant themselves unauthorized access to the targeted network.
2. Scan
Now, it is time to begin the penetration test. During this first phase of the pen test, our testers will use scanning tools to understand how your business’s network and systems respond to intrusions.
5. Analysis
After the pen test, the results will make their way into a detailed report. In the analysis, you’ll learn what vulnerabilities were exploited, what sensitive data was accessed, and the amount of time the pen tester was able to remain undetected in your system.
3. Gain Access
After the scan, our testers will know where to attack to gain access to your network. During this step, our testers will use manual and automated attacks to compromise servers, end-users, applications, wireless networks, and devices.
6. Plan & Action
After determining the results of your analyst. A plan of action will be executed to bring the systems into compliance. (Rewrite
