Internal Network Penetration Testing

We test what an insider or an attacker who already got in could reach, from lateral movement to privilege escalation.

All services

// Overview

What this service is.

Internal network penetration testing simulates adversary activity from inside your environment, from the perspective of an insider threat or an attacker who has obtained initial access. We examine trust boundaries, segmentation, identity and access controls, credential hygiene and lateral movement paths.

The assessment shows how far an attacker could escalate privileges and move, and which sensitive resources they could reach, so you can fix the paths that matter first.

// Scope

Scope and coverage.

  • Network segmentation and trust boundaries
  • Identity, access control and privilege escalation paths
  • Credential hygiene and authentication weaknesses
  • Active Directory and common enterprise service misconfigurations
  • Lateral movement toward critical systems and data
  • Detection and response to hands-on-keyboard activity
// Deliverables

What you get.

  • Validated attack paths from initial access to critical assets
  • Prioritized remediation with sequencing that fits your operations
  • Executive and technical reporting
  • A leadership debrief
  • Retest guidance to confirm fixes
// Questions

Frequently asked questions.

Do you test with or without credentials?

Typically without credentials unless scoped otherwise, so the test reflects what an attacker could do from a standard foothold.

Can this be combined with an external test?

Yes. Many clients pair internal and external testing to see the full path from the internet to critical systems.

Is it safe to run in production?

We work under agreed rules of engagement and avoid disruptive techniques unless you explicitly approve them.
