We attack your internet-facing systems the way an unauthorized outsider would, to show how an attacker could get a foothold before one does.
External network penetration testing evaluates your exposure to internet-based threats by simulating an anonymous attacker with no credentials. We focus on externally reachable infrastructure, perimeter defenses, authentication mechanisms and exposed services.
Testing is aligned to the IP ranges, systems and business constraints you define. The result is a clear picture of how an adversary could identify attack paths, bypass controls and establish an initial foothold, delivered by senior testers rather than automated scan output.
A scan lists possible weaknesses. A penetration test has an experienced tester attempt to exploit them, chain them together and prove real impact, which removes false positives and shows what actually matters.
Testing runs under agreed rules of engagement and scope. We coordinate timing and safeguards so operations are protected while the results stay realistic.
No. External testing starts from the position of an anonymous outsider unless you scope it otherwise.
Tell us what you want to learn and we will help you scope the right engagement.
