What Is Network Testing?
Network testing encompasses systematic assessments, proactive vulnerability scanning, and authorised penetration testing designed to evaluate the security posture of your IT infrastructure.
This comprehensive security approach combines automated scanning tools, manual penetration testing techniques, and expert analysis to identify weaknesses in your network perimeter, internal systems, and security controls.
By implementing regular network testing, organisations gain critical insights into their actual security posture, validate the effectiveness of existing controls, prioritise remediation efforts, and demonstrate due diligence to stakeholders and regulatory bodies.
What Is Included In Our Network Testing Service?
Our comprehensive network testing service provides complete visibility into your security posture:
External Penetration Testing
Thorough assessment of your organisation’s perimeter defences from an outside attacker’s perspective, identifying potential entry points before they can be exploited. Our experienced security professionals simulate sophisticated attack techniques to evaluate internet-facing systems, web applications, email gateways, and cloud resources, providing actionable remediation guidance for any vulnerabilities discovered.
Internal Vulnerability Assessment
Comprehensive scanning and analysis of your internal network environment to identify misconfigurations, unpatched systems, and security weaknesses. This detailed evaluation examines servers, workstations, network devices, and access controls to uncover hidden vulnerabilities that could be exploited by attackers who breach your perimeter or by malicious insiders with existing network access.
Wireless Network Security Testing
Evaluation of your wireless infrastructure security, including authentication mechanisms, encryption standards, and potential rogue access points. Our thorough wireless assessment verifies proper implementation of security controls, identifies signal leakage beyond physical boundaries, and ensures appropriate network segmentation between corporate and guest wireless networks to prevent unauthorised access to sensitive systems.
What Are The Benefits of Network Testing?
When companies implement robust network testing programmes, they gain significant advantages:
Proactive Vulnerability Management
Effective network testing identifies security weaknesses before they can be exploited by malicious actors, allowing for prioritised remediation based on actual risk.
Regulatory Compliance Assurance
Many regulatory frameworks require regular security assessments. Our methodical network testing helps fulfil compliance requirements for standards including PCI DSS, ISO 27001, and GDPR.
Security Investment Validation
Professional network testing provides objective evidence of your security programme’s effectiveness, helping justify investments and demonstrate security ROI to stakeholders.
