Penetration Testing

Cybersecurity, compliance, cyber insurance — all things that you should be concerned about as a business owner. But do you know how to protect your company from these threats?

As technology advances, so do hackers’ abilities to access the information you thought was safe.

According to CheckPoint Research, cyberattacks increased 50% year-over-year, with each organization facing 925 cyberattacks per week globally. Cybersecurity is a top priority for many companies, and it’s important that you have the right security measures in place to protect your data.

A penetration test is a method of testing the security measures of a system or network. It is often performed by a red team, with the goal of identifying potential weaknesses in the system, which can then be fixed before real-world attacks occur. Penetration tests can also be performed by white hat hackers who are hired or contracted by companies to try and break into their systems.

Penetration tests are useful because they provide insights into how well your system is protected against outside threats. A penetration test will identify areas where there are vulnerabilities in your system’s security controls, as well as offer recommendations on how to fix those vulnerabilities so they don’t become problems down the line.

A professional penetration tester knows exactly how hackers think and work and can help you identify vulnerabilities before they’re exploited by real-world cyber criminals. They’ll also be able to recommend ways to fix any vulnerabilities they uncover—and if they discover something serious, we’ll help you implement a plan of action so that you don’t become a victim of cybercrime yourself!

The best way to ensure that your company’s data is secure? Have an expert do penetration testing on your systems regularly.
