What is Network Security Testing?

Network Security Testing refers to a holistic approach to assessing the security of your computer network infrastructure to identify vulnerabilities and loopholes that malicious actors such as hackers and malware bots can leverage against you. They help ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data and resources within your network.

Benefits of Network Security Testing Services

1. Vulnerability Identification and Mitigation:

Network security testing helps identify weaknesses in elements like configurations, software, and hardware that hackers and bots might exploit. This helps you proactively counteract by applying patches and reinforcing your security measures. 

2. Risk Management:

Such security tests, often simulate automated and manual real-world attacks that reveal the potential impact and uncover security gaps in your network. They also guide your strategic adjustments and resource allocation for optimal risk management.

3. Compliance and Regulatory Adherence:

Regularly testing the security of your networks guarantees compliance with essential legal regulations like GDPR, HIPAA, SOC 2, and others. Non-compliance can result in hefty fines, penalties, and damage to your reputation.

4. Enhanced Incident Response:

It helps your organization shape responsive strategies, like identifying entry points, attack vectors, and breach detection capabilities which ensures swift and effective actions during real security events. This minimizes your downtime, curbs losses, and safeguards your reputation.

Types of Network Security Testing

1. Network Scanning:

Network scanning refers to the basic systematic exploration of your network's devices, systems, and services to identify active hosts and open ports to help the administrators gain an overview of your layout and potential entry points.

2. Password Cracking:

It refers to a type of network security testing service that attempts to gain unauthorized access to your accounts by systematically guessing or cracking passwords to assess the strength of your passwords and identify susceptible accounts.

3. Vulnerability Scanning:

Such an automated security test focuses on identifying and assessing weaknesses within your network, including outdated software, misconfigurations, and weak security settings to aid early detection and remediation.

4. Penetration Testing:

Penetration testing (pen testing) goes beyond vulnerability scanning by simulating realistic attacks to gain unauthorized access to your systems. This helps you evaluate the potential impact of successful attacks and provides actionable insights to reinforce your defence.

A target is a URL that will be tested by our vulnerability scanner. It can be the URL of a web application, website, API etc.

If your website makes API calls to different domains, you can add them as an extra host without having to purchase another domain.

Let's say you have a customer dashboard at https://app.example.com/ and an admin dashboard at https://admin.example.com/ with different login pages, then you will need 2 targets.
