In today's ever-evolving cyber threat landscape, even the most robust security defenses can have vulnerabilities. Penetration testing is a critical tool for proactively identifying and addressing these weaknesses before malicious actors exploit them.
At UCT Cyber Security, we offer comprehensive penetration testing services designed to be affordable, flexible, and essential for any business.
Why Choose UCT for Penetration Testing?
- Cost-Effective Security: Our penetration testing services are competitively priced, making them accessible for businesses of all sizes. Don't let budget limitations leave your organization vulnerable.
- Flexible Engagement Options: Choose the engagement model that best suits your needs. We offer one-time penetration tests to establish a security baseline or recurring penetration testing programs for ongoing vulnerability assessment.
- Actionable Insights: Our penetration tests go beyond simply identifying vulnerabilities. We provide detailed reports outlining the vulnerabilities discovered, their potential impact, and clear recommendations for remediation.
- Peace of Mind: Gain the peace of mind that comes from knowing your security posture has been rigorously tested by experienced professionals. Uncover Hidden Weaknesses: Our penetration testing methodology simulates real-world attacker tactics to identify vulnerabilities across your IT infrastructure, including:
- Network Security: We test your network perimeter for weaknesses that could allow unauthorized access.
- Physical Security: We assess the physical security controls in place to protect your data and systems.
- Internal & External Network Penetration Testing: An assessment of on-premise and cloud network infrastructure, including firewalls, system hosts and devices such as routers and switches. Can be framed as either an internal penetration test, focusing on assets inside the corporate network, or an external penetration test, targeting internet-facing infrastructure. To scope a test, you will need to know the number of internal and external IPs to be tested, network subnet size and number of sites.
- Wireless Penetration Testing: A test that specifically targets an organisation’s WLAN (wireless local area network), as well as wireless protocols including Bluetooth, ZigBee and Z-Wave. Helps to identify rogue access points, weaknesses in encryption and WPA vulnerabilities. To scope an engagement, testers will need to know the number of wireless and guest networks, locations and unique SSIDs to be assessed.
- Web Application Testing: An assessment of websites and custom applications delivered over the web, looking to uncover coding, design and development flaws that could be maliciously exploited. Before approaching a testing provider, it’s important to ascertain the number of apps that need testing, as well as the number of static pages, dynamic pages and input fields to be assessed.
- Mobile Application Testing: The testing of mobile applications on operating systems including Android and iOS to identify authentication, authorisation, data leakage and session handling issues. To scope a test, providers will need to know the operating system types and versions they’d like an app to be tested on, number of API calls and requirements for jailbreaking and root detection.
- Build and Configuration Review: Review of network builds and configurations to identify misconfigurations across web and app servers, routers and firewalls. The number of builds, operating systems and application servers to be reviewed during testing is crucial information to help scope this type of engagement.
- Social Engineering: An assessment of the ability of your systems and personnel to detect and respond to email phishing attacks. Gain precise insight into the potential risks through customised phishing, spear phishing and Business Email Compromise (BEC) attacks.
- Cloud Penetration Testing: Custom cloud security assessments to help your organisation overcome shared responsibility challenges by uncovering and addressing vulnerabilities across cloud and hybrid environments that could leave critical assets exposed.
- Agile Penetration Testing: Continuous, developer-centric security assessments designed to identify and remediate security vulnerabilities throughout the entire development cycle. This agile approach helps to ensure that every product release, whether it is a minor bug fix or a major feature, has been vetted from a security perspective. Benefits of Penetration Testing:
- Reduced Risk of Cyberattacks: Proactively identify and address vulnerabilities before they can be exploited by attackers.
- Improved Security Posture: Gain valuable insights into your overall security posture and prioritize remediation efforts.
- Enhanced Compliance: Meet compliance requirements that mandate regular penetration testing.
- Increased Confidence: Gain peace of mind knowing your defenses have been rigorously tested. Don't wait for a cyberattack to expose your weaknesses. A penetration test from UCT Cyber Security is a cost-effective way to identify and address vulnerabilities before they can be exploited.
