Better discovery, faster reporting

Powerful Penetration tools, to help you quickly identify and secure the vulnerabilities in your business.

Penetration testing is the best way to fully ensure that your network is secure from external attacks and that you are able to demonstrate cyber security. The purpose of a penetration test is to simulate a cyber attack in order to assess your current security level, discover any vulnerabilities in your IT infrastructure and provide recommendations and guidelines in order to become more secure.

After each penetration test a technical report will provide recommendations to the high, medium and low risk vulnerabilities detected. This will highlight the relevant issues and routes that might be exploited by attackers in order to compromise and gain unauthorised access to your network

Each issue highlighted includes an overview, analysis and security recommendations, which will, if implemented provide additional security and reliability of your systems and applications.

In order to ensure the integrity of the penetration testing that is carried out on our client’s networks, EBC Group partner with a leading certified and professional penetration-testing provider. They follow leading industry methodologies, such as OWASP and ISECOM’s Open Source Security Testing Methodology Manual (OSSTMM). This means that you can be safe in the knowledge of the accuracy and veracity of the work carried out.

Systematic security reviews and tests will affirm trust and confidence by customers, partners and suppliers.

The testing of your network and systems shouldn’t be a one-time task. As time goes on new software may be deployed and changes are made, meaning they need to be tested or re-tested.

Depending on your industry, various regulations may require a business to perform regular security tasks, which could include testing. Although mandatory for some businesses, testing is not a ‘one size fits’ all, and at EBC Group we can help understand your businesses demands, and provide successful security testing.

Vulnerability assessment-which provides a snapshot of the current status of your security and identifies any major issues. Vulnerability assessments can indicate whether you require a further evaluation of your security mechanisms.

Web application Penetration testing- Will identify vulnerabilities within your website which could be accessed through online cyber attacks. Exploitation can result in the theft of information and irreparable damage to your systems.

Network Penetration Testing:- Goes beyond vulnerability scanning and evaluates the security of a system, while attempting to expose and exploit vulnerabilities and weaknesses through a simulated attack. Bypassing known security weaknesses, the Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) certified manual penetration testing will attempt to branch out and gain further access to other applications, databases and resources without causing any disruption or damage to your systems and processes.
