Goal-Based Penetration Testing

Think Offensively to Secure Defenses

Approach reviews of your environment just like a real-world adversary would, using techniques that vulnerability scanners just can’t replicate. A penetration test from the Secureworks® Adversary Group uses a hands-on, adversarial approach to help you find blind spots and enhance your security posture.

Today's Challenging Environment

The Expanding Network Perimeter

Today’s perimeter extends across cloud, wireless, BYOD, and remote work—presenting a rich, expansive attack surface that, if not properly understood or defended, can be easily exploited.
Mimicking the Bad Guys

Cybersecurity adversaries evolve constantly, so your organization needs to be confident that its testing approach does as well. You want to be certain your methods replicate the real-world threats that matter most.
Mapping and Exposing the Kill Chain

Adversaries don’t stop once they gain initial access, so your testing shouldn’t merely focus on illuminating vulnerabilities. In fact, actionable insight, targeted defense and improved detection all start with exposing the kill chain.

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.

Internal Penetration Testing

Once inside, an attacker’s work continues. Test your internal defensive layers to know how quickly an internal threat could compromise your entire network.
External Penetration Testing

Attackers have many tricks up their sleeves when trying to gain access. Will your perimeter stand up to breach attempts from an external vantage point?
Wireless Penetration Testing

Wireless networks are an often overlooked part of testing programs. Find out how your wireless connections expose internal networks you thought were segmented.
