Opt Astra Security’s intelligent cybersecurity testing services to monitor your assets in a rapidly changing cyber environment continuously.
Cybersecurity testing is a process of assessing and evaluating the security of systems and applications that use and/or store sensitive data of an organization. It identifies and mitigates potential security threats and vulnerabilities that could compromise the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of resources that might impact business continuity.
Cybersecurity testing will help organizations to improve their security posture, comply with industry standards and regulations, and protect their digital assets, reputation, and customers.
There are 6 cybersecurity testing methods:
1. Cyber security audit: This is designed to be a comprehensive overview of your network. It looks for vulnerabilities as it assesses whether your system is compliant with industry standards and regulations. Through these audits, you will understand what gaps need to be filled.
2. Penetration test: Often called pen testing, it is a form of ethical hacking. During a pen test, IT professionals will intentionally launch an attack on a system to access applications, websites, and networks. The main objective of a pen test is to identify areas of weakness and provide remediation support.
3. Vulnerability scan: This is the process of identifying security vulnerabilities in systems and software with the goal of protecting it from breaches.
4. Security Scan: This searches for misconfigurations in a system. A misconfiguration is an incorrect design of a system or a component that can lead to vulnerabilities. When security systems aren’t defined or the default values aren’t maintained a misconfiguration occurs.
5. Risk assessment: This is a process that analyzes the various security controls in an organization and the possible threats that can occur within them.
6. Posture assessment: These can be conducted to optimize your ROI, get started with a new strategy, prepare for organizational changes or address any security gaps within the digital infrastructure.
