Penetration Testing
Penetration testing is aimed at verifying the resistance of networks, systems or applications in relation to current attack methods. New faults are discovered daily in the most varied systems, so it is of fundamental importance to carry out
preventive audits.
Vulnerability Assessment
This process implies identifying and registering vulnerabilities and other security non-fulfillments tracked down by assessment tools. Vulnerabilities found are being categorized and their reparation is being planned based on a priority level, enabling the security team to react properly.
Digital Forensics
Digital Forensics aims to investigate a state-of-the-art incident of data acquisition, preservation, retrieval and analysis methods, investigating its causes and culprits, indicating where security should be reinforced by the client, and providing evidence for training, awareness and penalization of offenders.
PENETRATION TESTING AND VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT
Penetration test is a method of evaluating the security of a system or network through the simulation of a malicious attack. The process involves an active review of the systems and controls of safety in the environment for any deficiency, technical failure or vulnerability. The analysis is performed from the position of a potential attacker, and involves exploiting the security vulnerabilities. The purpose of a penetration test is to circumvent the system, network, and security controls to gain access to systems and certain data that an unauthorized user should not have access to. Penetration testing will not locate and report any possible exposure related to the environment; on the contrary, the test aims to verify as a whole the efficiency of the security controls in the combat to a certain attacker. Any security issues encountered will be presented to the system owner together with an assessment of their impact and a proposal for minimization or technical solution of this impact.
Alternatively, vulnerability assessment is the process of identifying and quantifying vulnerabilities in a system without the specific intent of testing the system or its components based on the vulnerabilities encountered. The system being scanned or evaluated can be a set of hosts on a data or communication network or a physical installation using existing tools. Vulnerability assessment allows you to identify vulnerabilities that could compromise the performance, functionality, or security of a system before any malicious users can take advantage of them. This analysis should be done periodically and allows the creation of mechanisms to block attacks and permanent improvement of security control.

OUR SERVICES
GDPR or General Data Protection Regulation came to effect to increase data security level and raise the awareness of the significance of security checking. GDPR covers the topic of penetration testing and vulnerability assessment. This Regulation urges all companies based within the EU, and those who have clients or employees with EU citizenship to strictly follow the necessary procedure that will lead to the highest level of data security.
In order to prevent the losses of valuable data, means, and the trust you have been building over the years, you ought to run security test and avoid material penalities for not taking necessary precautions. Automatic testing will detect and memorize potential vulnerabilities. All threats and vulnerabilities will later be submitted to further tests and detailed analysis, until their successful elimination is carefully planned and executed.
It is established by PCI DSS that each company needs to run security testing annually. Security check can be done in a way that suits companies’ needs. Detection and removal of vulnerabilities that could possibly put data in danger has to be verified by an authorized person. The entire process should be noted and cataloged, along with
any additional suggestions.
