Network Penetration Testing: Assess Your Security Before Attackers Do

If your business was hacked tomorrow, do you know what would happen? Protecting your valuable assets and customer data is paramount in today’s digital landscape. Alongside robust security software, regular network penetration tests play a critical role, and these tests are precisely what cybersecurity insurers will look for when assessing your policy.

What is Network Penetration Testing?

Network penetration testing is a security test where experts try to hack into an organisation’s computer network to find vulnerabilities and weaknesses. It’s like a “mock” hack to see if a hacker could get in and cause damage. The goal is to identify any problems and fix them before a real hacker can take advantage. It’s basically a way to check the security of an organisation’s network.


How Do Data Breaches Occur?

A data breach occurs when a cybercriminal infiltrates a data source and extracts confidential information. This can be done by accessing a computer or network to steal local files or by bypassing network security remotely. The most common cyber attacks used in data breaches are outlined below:

Ransomware

RANSOMWARE

Malware

MALWARE

Assess Your Security Before Attackers Do

If your business was hacked tomorrow, do you know what would happen?

We offer two different network penetration testing services to guide your organisation to a better security posture and program.​

Internal Network Penetration Testing​

Using a device connected to your internal environment, our consultants will discover security vulnerabilities present within the internal network environment. These activities simulate that of a malicious attacker.​

External Network Penetration Testing​

Assuming the role of a malicious attacker from the public Internet, our consultants will identify security flaws within your external network environment. These flaws can include patching, configuration, and authentication issues.​

Frequently asked questions

What is a penetration test?

A penetration test is an authorised, simulated cyber attack on your network, systems or applications. Testers look for the weaknesses a real attacker would use, prove whether they can be exploited, and give you a prioritised report of what to fix.

How often should we have a penetration test?

At least once a year and after any significant change, such as a new office, firewall, cloud service or application. Because new vulnerabilities appear every week, many businesses now test continuously with an automated platform such as TotalPentest rather than relying on a single annual snapshot.

Will a penetration test disrupt our business?

No. Testing is agreed in advance, scoped to what you approve and designed to be non-destructive. Timings can be scheduled out of hours for sensitive systems.

How much does a penetration test cost?

It depends on the size of the network and how often you test. A traditional one-off network test is priced per test, while automated testing is a fixed subscription. Our penetration testing pricing guide compares typical industry costs.

Do cyber insurers ask for penetration testing?

Many insurers now ask for evidence of regular vulnerability testing, and a recent penetration test report can help with both cover and premiums. It is also expected under frameworks such as ISO 27001 and PCI DSS.
