Infrastructure Pentest (Infra VAPT)

Detailed examination and testing of IT infrastructures, revealing potential threats or vulnerabilities. Essential for maintaining the security and integrity of IT systems and networks.

What is a Infrastructure Pentest?

An Infrastructure Pentest provides a holistic view into an organization's digital foundations, probing interconnected systems for vulnerabilities. By simulating sophisticated cyber-attacks, it offers insights into resilience, ensuring smooth and secure operations.

With an Infrastructure Pentest, businesses gain peace of mind knowing their digital backbone is secure. Every node, every connection is vetted, providing a roadmap for enhanced security. It's more than just a test; it's a commitment to digital excellence and trust.

The benefits of Infrastructure Pentesting services

Evaluating every aspect of digital infrastructure provides a panoramic view of potential risks, ensuring no vulnerabilities are overlooked.
Addressing vulnerabilities before they're exploited can prevent costly remediations and potential legal entanglements post-breach.
A well-tested infrastructure supports seamless business operations, reducing downtimes and ensuring consistent service delivery.
Periodic pentests ensure infrastructure remains resilient against emerging cyber threats, ensuring a long-standing secure environment.

Infrastructure Pentesting Approach

Internal Infrastructure Pentest

From an internal vantage point, we examine your vital infrastructure components: servers, databases, and communication pathways, ensuring top-tier internal security.

Our assessment, done from within the network, aims to leave no stone unturned. We prioritize securing your organization's heartbeat against internal vulnerabilities.

About internal infrastructure pentesting by WebSec:

Evaluates vulnerabilities from the perspective of an internal attacker

Often more costly due to the requirement of a steady in-house security team

Facilitates consistent security maintenance through regular assessments

Potentially more comprehensive as it accounts for threats from both internal and external sources

External Infrastructure Pentest

Looking from the outside in, our external pentest evaluates your infrastructure's resilience. Every exposed component, from firewalls to servers, is meticulously tested.

The aim is clear: shield your organization from threats in the vast digital world, ensuring every gateway remains impregnable and every vulnerability is sealed.

About external infrastructure pentesting by WebSec:

Evaluates vulnerabilities from the perspective of an external attacker

Can be more budget-friendly as it allows for outsourcing and does not necessitatea constant team

Typically conducted periodically with proper planning

Generally less comprehensive as it mainly focuses on external threats

Types of Infrastructure Pentests

black box illustration

Black box pentest

also known as closed-box penetration tests

  • Realism: Highly realistic.
  • Time: Fast (days), High chance of missing vulnerabilities.
  • Prior knowledge: None; Pentesters are only provided with limited network details, such as IP addresses or network segments, without further access or knowledge.

Grey box pentest

Combination of black and white box testing

  • Realism: Balanced.
  • Time: Average (week), Low chance of missing vulnerabilities.
  • Prior knowledge: Partial; Pentesters are given access to certain system or network documentation, test accounts, and information about network architecture and configurations.

White box pentest

also known as open-box penetration tests

  • Realism: Unrealistic.
  • Time: Long (weeks), Very high chance of identifying unknown vulnerabilities but time-consuming.
  • Prior knowledge: Full; Pentesters are provided full access to all network infrastructure, system documentation, configurations, network diagrams, and source code of critical systems.

Infrastructure Pentesting Process

1

Gathering information

We initiate by scrupulously amassing crucial data regarding your infrastructure’s details, scrutinizing network configurations, and software deployments, establishing a substantial foundation for the forthcoming penetration test.

2

Threat modeling

During this phase, we develop intricate threat models, identifying possible attack vectors and potential adversaries. The objective is to strategically bolster defenses, protecting vital infrastructure elements from cyber-attacks.

3

Vulnerability analysis

Utilizing advanced tools, we conduct a deep vulnerability assessment of your infrastructure, identifying weak points and areas prone to exploitation, creating a vivid picture of potential security gaps in your system.

4

Exploitation

At this juncture, we simulate real-world attack scenarios in a secured environment, probing identified vulnerabilities to understand the extent of possible damage and unauthorized access in your infrastructure.

5

Post exploitation

Post-exploitation, our focus sharpens on securing the exposed avenues, analyzing the data accessed, and working towards restoring system stability, ensuring a fortified defense against future attacks.

6

Reporting

To conclude, we provide a comprehensive report detailing the detected vulnerabilities, coupled with strategic advice and actionable steps to augment your infrastructure's security framework for the long term.

71%Infrastructure Vulnerability Rate

According to a 2020 report by Positive Technologies, over 71% of companies have at least one vulnerability on their network perimeter, emphasizing the vital role of infrastructure penetration testing in ensuring corporate security.

800kSMB Vulnerabilities

A report from ZDNet cited that over 800,000 Windows computers around the world were still vulnerable to BlueKeep, a critical remote code execution bug in the Windows Remote Desktop Services, as of 2019.

+33%Vulnerable IoT Devices

In 2020, Symantec noted that IoT devices experienced a 33% increase in vulnerabilities compared to the previous year, signaling a critical need for penetration testing to secure network environments housing these devices.
