Safeguard Operational Continuity

To safeguard operational continuity, confidential information, and more, each Infrastructure Penetration Test consists of the following components: 

Network Attacks– Using an “assumed breach” approach, our ethical hackers will simulate the actions of a threat actor who has successfully infiltrated the network perimeter and is exploring ways to gain a foothold without legitimate credentials or privileges; Vulnerability Assessment– Next, our team executes producing high-value findings without negatively impacting the client's network; AD Domain Unauthenticated Exploitation– Our team dedicates a portion of the exercise to AD exploitation as a user without access to a domain user account; AD Domain Authenticated Exploitation– By focusing on AD exploitation as a low-privileged domain user,  Packetlabs aims to elevate privileges and laterally move within the network through abusing misconfigurations, exploitation, and lacking security configuration; and AD Domain Exploitation (Local User)– Elevated privileges on a specific machine are exploited.

Go Beyond Cybersecurity Compliance

Fulfill–and surpass– common compliance objectives including, but not limited to, PCI DSS, SOC2, FedRAMP, ISO27001, and MPA. Ensure operational continuity, keep cybersecurity-related reputation high, maximize cybersecurity investments, and lower cyber insurance premiums with Infrastructure Penetration Testing. Components that assist in this include: AD Domain Unauthenticated Exploitation– Our team dedicates a portion of the exercise to AD exploitation as a user without access to a domain user account; AD Domain Authenticated Exploitation– By focusing on AD exploitation as a low-privileged domain user, Packetlabs aims to elevate privileges and laterally move within the network through abusing misconfigurations, exploitation, and lacking security configuration; and AD Domain Exploitation (Local User)– Elevated privileges on a specific machine are exploited.

Pinpoint Vulnerabilities

Via our Vulnerability Assessment phase–a core component of both our external and internal Infrastructure Pentests–our ethical hackers conduct commercial-grade vulnerability scans (network-based and/or authenticated), manual testing for various classes of vulnerabilities (configuration-based and weak passwords), and patch level testing. This works to pinpoint dangerous vulnerabilities in IT systems, apps, and network components to identify the techniques attackers would take to breach sensitive information.

Demonstrate Impact

Cyberattacks can cause immediate disruptions for businesses across all industries, leading to significant financial hardships from halted operations (and additional costs associated with investigation, response, mitigation, and recovery.) Legal fees and crisis management costs may also accrue. Beyond these immediate expenses, long-term financial concerns may arise from regulatory and legal penalties, lost business, and challenges in acquiring new business.
