External Infrastructure Penetration Test​

Discover and Secure Your Web Application’s Vulnerabilities with Expert Penetration Testing Solutions

What is External Infrastructure Penetration Testing?

External Infrastructure Penetration Testing is a vital security assessment focused on identifying and mitigating vulnerabilities in an organization’s external-facing assets.

This type of testing simulates cyber attacks from an external perspective, targeting internet-exposed systems such as web servers, firewalls, and other network devices. The goal is to uncover security weaknesses that could be exploited by external attackers to gain unauthorized access to internal networks and data.

The findings from an external penetration test are compiled into a detailed report that outlines the discovered vulnerabilities, assesses their severity, and provides actionable recommendations for remediation.

This report is essential for helping organizations prioritize their security efforts and implement effective measures to protect their external infrastructure. Regular external penetration testing is crucial for maintaining a strong security posture, preventing unauthorized access, and ensuring compliance with industry standards and regulations.

Common External Infrastructure Threats

External infrastructure faces numerous threats that can compromise the security and functionality of an organization’s network. Understanding these threats is crucial for implementing effective defenses. Here are some of the most common threats seen in 2023 and 2024:

  • Unpatched Vulnerabilities
  • Misconfigured Systems
  • Credential Stuffing
  • Phishing and Social Engineering
