Yes, they are very different. While a vulnerability scan provides a high-level overview of any major gaps in your security framework, a penetration test takes a much deeper dive into your existing framework for any hidden vulnerabilities.
What we cover in your pentest is determined by the pentest method you choose.
Ultimately, you should choose the pentesting service that best suits your company’s needs. Every organization has different, pertinent requirements, so there’s no one-size-fits-all service.
For example, if you’re looking to assess your staff’s ability to keep cyber threats out, you may want to move forward with social engineering testing. If you have a well-established security framework, red teaming may be a better option to advance your cyber security posture.
As we dive into your existing infrastructure and discusses services with you, we will be able to better determine what the best fit would be.
Pentests can last anywhere from 2-6 weeks, depending on the size of your company and the method of testing used. We will work with you to determine if the time frame it’ll take to perform the pentesting works for you.
Your company can, and should, remain open and operate normally while we test your security infrastructure.
Pentesting often goes undetected by employees and happens behind the scenes of your day-to-day operations. Before the pentest, we discuss with you the specific operational parameters of our engagement — what we can and can not utilize to access your internal systems — and we take measures to ensure that the pentest only affects those areas of your operations.
When we’ve finished conducting the penetration test, you’ll receive a comprehensive report that highlights the pentest findings, vulnerabilities, and recommendations for your company’s cyber security.
As technology and cyber threats are constantly evolving, it’s recommended that you conduct a penetration test annually to ensure there are no security gaps in your systems that threat actors would be able to exploit.
The information we gather is compiled into the aforementioned comprehensive pentest report and is given to your team alongside remediation recommendations.
Note: Our team does not keep or distribute any of the information we gather during your pentest.
