Why Do You Need Penetration Testing?

Penetration testing extends beyond detecting common vulnerabilities through automated methods, as it also identifies more intricate security issues, such as business logic flaws and complex workflow issues.

Importance of Penetration Testing

  • Detecting vulnerabilities and validating security controls
  • Reducing attack surface and informed about the ever-evolving cyber threat landscape
  • Meeting regulatory requirements
  • Protecting your organization’s defenses against security breaches

The Accorian Approach

Planning and Reconnaissance
01
  1. Use passive techniques like searching online resources to gather information about the target system or network
  2. Use active techniques like port/service scanning and enumeration to identify potential weaknesses and develop test cases
  3. Traverse through the application to identify workflows and feature lists and develop test cases
Vulnerability Analysis
02
  1. Perform an automated scanning process to detect all easily identifiable findings
  2. Validate the vulnerablities identified by the scanner to eliminate false positives
  3. Conduct manual testing of the application/systems against all potential threats identified during the reconnaissance phase
Exploitation
03
  1. Leverage TTPs (Tactics, Techniques & Procedures), proprietary tools, & research to discover and analyze
  2. Exploit the identified vulnerabilities to evaluate their impact on the systems
  3. Traverse through the application to identify workflows and feature lists and develop test cases
Post Exploitation
04

Remove all exploit files or payloads that have been uploaded or installed on the target system

Reporting
05
  1. Prepare comprehensive reports tailored for technical and executive teams
  2. Provide clear illustrations of identified vulnerabilities, including descriptions, mitigation strategies, & steps to reproduce
  3. This will assist in verifying the implementation of appropriate measures to address the identified issues
