Technical Security Analysis/Penetration Testing/Pentest
Defending against hacker attacks is a top priority for businesses. And rightly so, because the threat of cybercrime is more pressing than ever. Regular penetration tests can help you protect your IT systems from unauthorized attacks. Our experienced security analysts identify vulnerabilities in your IT infrastructure and highlight areas for improvement, showing you how to best position yourself against cyberattacks.
TÜV TRUST IT TÜV AUSTRIA security analysts follow the same approach as hackers who target “low-hanging fruit.” They examine the infrastructure and identify the weakest points to exploit in order to penetrate the network. Once inside the network, they assess further threats. They gather information about network components, systems, services, and applications within the scope of the investigation.
Then, the TÜV TRUST IT TÜV AUSTRIA security analysts attempt to identify and exploit vulnerabilities. For example, they test whether they can impersonate other users (identity spoofing) or alter data (tampering). A key consideration is whether traces can be covered up, for example by bypassing logging. This prevents access attempts or changes from being attributed to any specific user (reputation).
Error messages are actually intended to assist experienced programmers. However, they can also contain valuable information about the system that attackers can exploit. This unwanted leakage of information is called information disclosure.
Service disruptions caused by massive traffic are relatively well-known. This can lead to a denial of service, which, for example, makes your website inaccessible. Such attacks can also completely block other services or lock user accounts. To ensure that no systems in production are compromised, we only carry out such attacks upon separate agreement.
