Penetration Testing

SECURITY SERVICES

Penetration Testing

Penetration testing involves simulated cyber attacks to assess security defenses and validate protective measures. At Cyber1Defense, we conduct both external and internal penetration tests that identify security weaknesses and provide actionable remediation guidance.

Our penetration testing services validate defenses against real-world attack scenarios, test zero trust implementations, and assess hybrid-cloud security across AWS, Azure, and GCP environments. We deliver detailed technical reports with prioritized remediation roadmaps that help organizations strengthen their security posture effectively.

Unlike automated vulnerability scanners, our manual penetration testing simulates how real attackers would compromise your systems, providing realistic assessments of your security controls and incident response capabilities.

Penetration Testing

Service Benefits

Our penetration testing simulates how real attackers would target your systems, providing realistic assessments that go beyond theoretical vulnerabilities to demonstrate actual exploitable risks.

Regular penetration testing helps organizations meet compliance requirements for PCI-DSS, HIPAA, SOC 2, and other frameworks that mandate security testing and validation of controls.

Our testing validates that security controls and incident response procedures effectively detect, contain, and respond to attacks, helping organizations improve their security operations capabilities.

Key Benefits

External Penetration Testing

We test your external-facing systems, web applications, and network perimeters from an attacker's perspective, identifying vulnerabilities that external threats could exploit to gain unauthorized access.

Internal Penetration Testing

Our internal testing simulates insider threats and compromised credentials, testing lateral movement capabilities and validating that internal security controls effectively contain and detect attacks.

Cloud Security Validation

We test cloud environments across major providers (AWS, Azure, GCP), validating IAM policies, workload protection, network security, and data encryption to identify misconfigurations and vulnerabilities.

Additional Information

Testing Scope

Our penetration tests can cover networks, web applications, mobile apps, APIs, cloud infrastructure, wireless networks, and physical security controls, tailored to your specific environment and compliance requirements.

Manual Exploitation

Beyond automated scanning, our specialists manually exploit vulnerabilities to demonstrate actual risk, test exploit chains, and validate that security controls effectively prevent unauthorized access and data exfiltration.

Detailed Reporting

We provide comprehensive technical reports with proof-of-concept exploits, attack paths, business impact analysis, and step-by-step remediation guidance to help your team fix vulnerabilities effectively.
