Penetration Testing (PT)

Penetration testing simulates real-world cyberattacks to assess how well your defenses hold up against potential threats. This service uncovers security gaps that attackers could exploit and provides actionable insights to strengthen your security posture, ensuring proactive defense against breaches.

Our Testing Approach

Black Box Testing

Simulates an external attacker’s perspective without prior knowledge of your systems.

Gray Box Testing

Combines internal and external perspectives, with limited knowledge of the infrastructure.

White Box Testing

Provides complete knowledge of system architecture to evaluate weaknesses thoroughly.
