Penetration Testing
Our experts review your environment just like a real-world adversary would, going beyond vulnerability scanners to help you find blind spots, enhance your security posture and better prepare.
Challenges
Getting Inside the Mind of a Hacker
Meaningful, actionable insights that help improve your cybersecurity posture require more than pass/fail scans – they require resources and time often only available with the help of third-party resources.
Expanding Network Perimeter
Today’s perimeter extends across cloud, wireless, Bring your own device, and remote work, presenting a wide attack surface that can be exploited.
Mimicking Adversaries
Cybersecurity adversaries evolve constantly, and so should your testing approach, replicating the real-world threats that matter most.
Exposing the Kill Chain
Do more than find vulnerabilities. Actionable insight, targeted defense and improved detection start by exposing the kill chain.
Our Approach
Hands on. Target Locked.
Finding vulnerabilities goes beyond an asset inventory. Knowing what attackers can do once they achieve a foothold helps create a plan that enables pragmatic, proactive improvements that mitigate organizational risk.
- Goal-based and focused on your most pressing security concerns
- Hands-on tests, replicating internal Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) or Nation State
- Narrative reports and executive-level summaries to provide relevant information to technical and non-technical audiences
Our Services
Our Penetration Testing Services
Secureworks provides a comprehensive portfolio of penetration testing services to help you identify gaps and weaknesses before the threat actor does – no matter the source of the attack.
External Penetration Testing
Attackers have many tricks up their sleeves to determine if your perimeter defenses stand up to attempts to breach.
- Show impact with manual testing that mimics current threats, including pivoting, post-exploitation and data compromise
- Uncover if your environment can stand up to threat actors with proprietary tooling and creative adversarial experts
- Expand your understanding of the risk you face beyond a pass/fail with severity-ranked risk and recommendations
Internal Penetration Testing
The attackers’ work continues once inside. Assess layered defenses and know how quickly an internal threat could compromise your entire system based on different threat models.
- Test internal security controls, firewall rules and more that limit user access
- Advance your penetration testing approach with an added dimension to know how quickly an internal threat could compromise your entire system
- Find insider threat risks and provide insights that enable IT teams to make smarter security choices
Wireless Penetration Testing
Wireless networks are an often-overlooked part of testing. A wireless penetration test focuses on evaluating your wireless network security and how attackers may exploit it.
- Find out how your wireless connections expose internal networks you thought were segmented
- Identify ways an attacker could breach your wireless network and its clients or find a pathway to the internal network
- Go beyond the assessment of applicable compliance mandates with a security-first approach to testing
