Net Pen Testing – Newark (NJ)
Businesses in Newark and across New Jersey have become increasingly aware of ransomware and cybercriminals’ threats. Unfortunately, the sophistication, frequency, and severity of the attacks are increasing.
Ransomware Examples
- A hacker performed an attack that would encrypt data as well as exfiltrate the data and leak it to the dark web if ransome was not paid.
- An attacker targeted backup systems and VMWare hypervisors, making restoring from backups much more challenging.
To address these ransomware risks, businesses should continuously review and update cybersecurity programs. An excellent first step in improving cybersecurity is to conduct yearly penetration tests.
Penetration Testing Experience – Newark (NJ)
Keiter offers remote penetration testing services to organizations in Newark and across New Jersey Leveraging over 15 years of specialized experience, our team delivers high-quality cybersecurity solutions to companies in various industries regardless of location. The confluence of technical acumen with years of experience allows us to provide testing services that meet a variety of industry standards, including CMMC/NIST SP 800-171, PCI, SOC, HIPAA, GDPR, and more. Our comprehensive report not only documents the vulnerabilities discovered during our test, but it also includes recommendations to fix the vulnerabilities. In instances where fixing the vulnerability may be costly, complex, or time-consuming, we will also share recommendations for temporary mitigations to implement until the longer-term fix can be implemented.
Our approach to penetration test services typically involves the following steps:
- Planning and Reconnaissance: The penetration testing team researches and gathers information about the target system or network, such as IP addresses, open ports, and potential vulnerabilities.
- Scanning: The team uses specialized tools and techniques to scan the target system for vulnerabilities, such as unpatched software or misconfigured systems.
- Enumeration: The team identifies and gathers information about the target system’s configuration, user accounts, and other relevant information.
- Vulnerability Analysis: The team analyzes the vulnerabilities found during the scanning and enumeration phases to determine how they can be exploited.
- Exploitation: The team attempts to exploit the vulnerabilities to gain access to the target system or network.
- Post-Exploitation: If successful, the team may attempt to escalate privileges, move laterally through the network, and access other network resources.
- Reporting: The penetration testing team provides a detailed report that includes a description of the vulnerabilities found, the risks associated with each vulnerability, and recommendations for remediation.
The Keiter Difference:
