Network Penetration Testing
“Find the security holes in your network before an attacker does.”
Overview : Network Penetration Testing
A network vulnerability assessment and penetration test, or network VAPT, is a technical security assessment that goes beyond the usual port scanning and vulnerability enumeration to pinpoint security risks and their business ramifications on your network, whether it be wireless, internal, or external Network Security testing is a crucial procedure that helps identify security flaws, network weaknesses, and threats that could damage any organization's networks, website servers, and other applications if they are attacked by hackers. It's a crucial step in determining how secure your network is by simulating attacks to gain unauthorized access to the target network thereby assessing the current state network security.
Methodology
Types of Testing -
Black Box, often referred to as behavioral testing or external testing, is a form of software testing technique wherein no prior knowledge of the internal code structure, implementation specifics, or internal routes of an application is necessary. It focuses on the application's input and output and is entirely dependent on the specifications and requirements for the software.
Benefits
Our Approach
Define Scope
The client's scope must be clearly defined before an application assessment can be conducted. At this point, open dialogue between the company and the client is recommended in order to build a secure platform upon which to conduct assessments.
Information Gathering
At this step, a variety of OSINT (Open Source Intelligence) tools is used and tactics to gather as much data as they can on the target. The gathered data will help us comprehend how the relationship functions, which will enable us to precisely assess the risk as the engagement develops.
Identifying and Inspect
At this point, we combine computerized resources and tools with various data collection methods to create more advanced data. Any potential attack vectors are carefully examined by our experts. In the following step, the acquired data from this stage will serve as the foundation for its application.
Attack and Penetration
To uncover all potential attack paths and vulnerabilities, we launch both a manual and an automated security scan in this step. In order to assess the application's security, we then execute exploits against it. For a high degree of penetration, we employ several techniques, open-source scripts, and internal tools. To secure your application and its data, all of these are carefully carried out.
Reporting
This is the last step in the entire assessment procedure. This stage involves gathering all acquired data, analyzing it, and providing the client with a complete, comprehensive breakdown of our results. A comprehensive analysis of all the hazards will be included in the full report, and the final report will also list all the application's strengths and shortcomings.

FAQs
Is network Penetration testing and Vulnerability assessment similar?
During a pen test, an outsider or hacker is made to pretend they are getting access to the system of the organization. A subset of pen test procedures called a vulnerability scan is used to evaluate a network and connected systems for a predetermined list of known vulnerabilities. While vulnerability scans focus on the system flaws already present, a pen test will simulate a 'live' threat or assault.
What are the industry standards for Network VAPT?
Network VAPT is performed in accordance with NIST SP800-115, PTES, and CIS Benchmarks requirements.
What is important for network security besides VAPT?
In addition to routine VAPT, it's advisable to do a configuration audit and device-level security analysis in accordance with the OEM's suggested security policies and procedures.
