In-Depth Testing Approaches

Our comprehensive penetration testing methodologies for each service area

External Network Testing

Our external network penetration testing simulates attacks from outside your organisation's perimeter. We systematically identify and exploit weaknesses in your external-facing infrastructure to demonstrate real-world attack scenarios.

Testing Activities:

Port scanning and service enumeration
Banner grabbing and version identification
SSL/TLS configuration analysis
DNS zone transfer attempts
Email server security assessment
Web service vulnerability scanning

Common Vulnerabilities Found:

Unpatched systems and services
Weak or default credentials
Misconfigured firewalls
Exposed administrative interfaces
Information disclosure vulnerabilities
Outdated protocols and ciphers

Internal Network Assessment

Internal network testing assumes compromise of the corporate network and evaluates the effectiveness of network segmentation, internal controls, and monitoring capabilities. We simulate insider threats and lateral movement scenarios.

Testing Activities:

Network mapping and host discovery
Service enumeration and banner grabbing
SMB share enumeration
Active Directory reconnaissance
Privilege escalation attempts
Credential harvesting and password attacks

Focus Areas:

Domain controller security
Network segmentation effectiveness
Service account security
Windows and Linux privilege escalation
Database server security
File server access controls

Web Application Testing

Our web application testing follows the OWASP methodology to identify vulnerabilities in web-based applications. We perform both automated scanning and manual testing to uncover complex business logic flaws and security weaknesses.

OWASP Top 10 Testing:

Injection vulnerabilities (SQL, NoSQL, LDAP)
Broken authentication mechanisms
Sensitive data exposure
XML external entity (XXE) attacks
Broken access controls
Security misconfigurations

Advanced Testing:

Cross-site scripting (XSS) variants
Cross-site request forgery (CSRF)
Business logic bypass attempts
Session management flaws
File upload vulnerabilities
Server-side request forgery (SSRF)

Mobile Application Testing

Mobile application security testing covers both static and dynamic analysis of iOS and Android applications. We examine the application architecture, data storage, communication protocols, and platform-specific security implementations.

Static Analysis:

Source code review and decompilation
Binary analysis and reverse engineering
Hardcoded secrets and credentials
Insecure data storage patterns
Improper cryptographic implementation
Code obfuscation effectiveness

Dynamic Analysis:

Runtime application security testing
Network traffic interception
API endpoint security validation
Certificate pinning bypass
Local authentication bypass
In-app purchase manipulation

API Security Testing

API security testing focuses on REST, GraphQL, and SOAP APIs to identify authentication flaws, authorisation bypasses, and data exposure issues. We test both documented and undocumented endpoints for security vulnerabilities.

Authentication & Authorisation:

OAuth 2.0 and JWT implementation flaws
API key management and rotation
Session token security
Role-based access control bypass
Multi-factor authentication bypass
Privilege escalation vulnerabilities

Data Validation & Logic:

Input validation and sanitisation
Rate limiting and DoS protection
GraphQL introspection and injection
Mass assignment vulnerabilities
API versioning security issues
Error handling and information disclosure

Firewall & IDS/IPS Testing

Security appliance testing evaluates the effectiveness of network security controls including firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and intrusion prevention systems. We test rule configurations, evasion techniques, and monitoring capabilities.

Firewall Testing:

Rule effectiveness and ordering
Port and protocol filtering
NAT and PAT configuration review
VPN tunnel security assessment
Management interface security
Logging and monitoring capabilities

IDS/IPS Evasion:

Signature-based detection bypass
Protocol manipulation techniques
Traffic fragmentation methods
Encoding and obfuscation attacks
Timing-based evasion techniques
False positive generation testing

Wi-Fi Security Assessments

Wireless security testing evaluates the security of Wi-Fi networks, access points, and wireless infrastructure. We test encryption implementations, access controls, and network segmentation in wireless environments.

Wireless Reconnaissance:

Access point discovery and enumeration
SSID and BSSID identification
Wireless client device detection
RF spectrum analysis
Rogue access point identification
Hidden network discovery

Attack Techniques:

WPA/WPA2/WPA3 cracking attempts
WPS PIN brute-force attacks
Evil twin access point creation
Wireless deauthentication attacks
RADIUS server security testing
Guest network isolation bypass

Build Reviews

Security configuration reviews evaluate the hardening and security posture of systems, servers, and network devices. We assess compliance with security standards and identify configuration weaknesses that could be exploited.

System Hardening:

Operating system security configuration
Service and port configuration review
User account and privilege assessment
Patch management evaluation
Antivirus and endpoint protection review
Logging and monitoring configuration

Compliance & Standards:

CIS benchmark compliance testing
NIST framework alignment
ISO 27001 control implementation
GDPR technical measure assessment
PCI-DSS configuration requirements
Industry-specific security standards

AI & Machine Learning Pentesting

Specialized security testing for AI systems, machine learning models, and LLM implementations. We assess vulnerabilities unique to AI technologies including prompt injection, model extraction, and data poisoning risks.

AI Model Security:

Adversarial input testing
Model inversion and extraction attacks
Training data poisoning assessment
Bias and fairness evaluation
Model robustness testing
Privacy leakage detection

LLM & ChatBot Security:

Prompt injection vulnerability testing
Jailbreak attempt assessment
Information disclosure prevention
Rate limiting and abuse prevention
API security and access controls
Context manipulation testing

Our Testing Methodology

Planning & Scoping

We begin by understanding your business objectives and defining the scope of the penetration test. This includes identifying target systems, establishing rules of engagement, and determining the testing methodology that best fits your requirements.

Define testing objectives and success criteria
Establish scope and boundaries
Create rules of engagement
Schedule testing timeline

Reconnaissance

Our team gathers intelligence about your target systems using both passive and active reconnaissance techniques. This phase helps us understand your infrastructure and identify potential attack vectors.

Network mapping and service enumeration
OSINT gathering and social engineering research
Technology stack identification
Attack surface analysis

Vulnerability Analysis

We systematically identify and analyse potential security vulnerabilities using automated tools combined with manual testing techniques to ensure comprehensive coverage.

Automated vulnerability scanning
Manual code review and configuration analysis
Business logic flaw identification
Risk assessment and prioritization

Exploitation

We carefully exploit discovered vulnerabilities to demonstrate their real-world impact, always maintaining the integrity of your systems whilst proving the severity of security issues.

Controlled exploitation of vulnerabilities
Privilege escalation attempts
Lateral movement simulation
Data access and exfiltration proof-of-concept

Reporting

We provide comprehensive documentation of our findings with detailed remediation recommendations, risk ratings, and actionable steps to improve your security posture.
