Penetration Testing
Zevante’s professional network includes a team of US cleared and authorized ethical hackers who have been intelligently trained to adhere to a strict code of ethics and offer penetration testing across a range of devices and parameters in order to bring awareness to an organization’s gaps, vulnerabilities, and risks.
Penetration testing, often referred to as security testing or ethical hacking, involves testing, measuring, and improving the security measures of organizations’ networks and systems by employing the same methods and techniques a hacker would apply. For many compliance certifications including FedRAMP and StateRAMP penetration testing is a mandatory requirement.
Our Role
The Zevante team of experienced and trusted penetration testers assess systems and uncover vulnerabilities before a threat or bad actor can. We identify any holes or open exploits leading to unauthorized access to your organization’s sensitive data and information, both internally and externally.
Internal Penetration Testing
During an internal test, a tester has access to an application behind its security system to simulate an attack from a malicious insider with awareness by the organization they are targeting. All internal penetration testing is performed by the Zevante team onsite.
External Penetration Testing
With external penetration testing, the Zevante staff work to discover gaps and vulnerabilities that may lead to adversarial attacks, while working from outside the organization they are assisting. This type of penetration testing removes stealth components and brings awareness and visibility to potential ongoing threats.
Phishing Attacks
Phishing attacks target personal identification information (PII) in email messages or direct messages and give malicious actors access to victim’s confidential information and/or employee credentials. To prepare employees for real threats, Zevante’s team simulates an attack from a malicious threat.
Social Engineering
It is often said that when it comes to malicious attackers “the right hand doesn’t know what the left hand is doing.” While in a malicious attack this may not seem a complicated issue for adversaries, it makes the job of a security intelligence analyst tricky. Zevante’s team of certified ethical hackers working together as a team of ‘red hat actors,’ will begin to hunt for any gates that may be open for access, whether it is through phishing email campaigns, or in person intel.
Insider Threat Penetration Testing
Zevante’s team functions as an adversary, bringing insight that most trustworthy businesses and organizations might overlook when managing day-to-day operations. We gather intel from every angle, inspect security parameters and access granted without consideration of their risk if acquired by an adversary, and identify any security parameters or access that have been missed. In the event of a potential threat, we work with our remediation team to alert your organization and advise you on the best course of action.
