Methodologies

Vulnerability Assessment Methodology

Conducted by Qualified Security Consultants using industry-standard tools to monitor and quantify risks.

Four-Phase Approach:

Discover
Collaborate with client to analyze and verify targets in scope.
Assess
Schedule, execute, and verify port, service, OS, and vulnerability scans.
Evaluate
Analyze identified true and potential vulnerabilities.
Report
Compile findings into a concise report with relevant details and remediation guidance.

Penetration Testing Methodology

Combines automated and manual testing using various frameworks and tools.

Key Elements:

Integration of industry-leading scanning tools.
Validation of vulnerabilities, application errors, and logic flaws.
Launch of safe exploits to test for root or administrative access.
Avoidance of Denial-of-Service (DoS) attacks to maintain system availability.

Penetration Testing Phases

Intelligence Gathering
- OSINT, Google Hacking, fingerprinting, application enumeration.

Vulnerability Analysis
- Automated scanning and manual testing, threat modeling, categorization.

Exploitation
- Use of attacker methodologies (e.g., MITM, password attacks, SQL injection) to verify and demonstrate vulnerabilities.

Post-Exploitation
- Notification of critical findings, cleanup of tools and artifacts.

Reporting
- Detailed technical and executive reports with analysis and prioritized remediation actions.
