External Pentest

During an external pentest, we test an organization’s network and systems for vulnerabilities and weaknesses. This is done from the perspective of a potential hacker to assess whether the organization's security is adequate to withstand attacks. The results of the pentesting are used to strengthen security and better protect the organization against cyberattacks.

Benefits

An external pentest is a comprehensive and detailed testing process where we assess the security of an organization or system from the outside. We test systems that are directly connected to the internet.

This has several advantages. For one, an external pentest can help improve an organization’s security. With this independent advice, you can enhance the security of your systems.

By conducting an external pentest, an organization can determine whether the current security meets established requirements and identify areas for improvement. Finally, an external pentest can also help increase confidence, as the security has been tested in all possible ways, ensuring there are no hidden flaws.

How do we go about an

External Pentest

A pentest begins with the development of a plan, which outlines the security tests to be conducted and their objectives. Next, the organization’s network and systems are examined for weaknesses. We do this using automated tools and manual testing.

If we find vulnerabilities, they are reported to the organization. We describe how we could exploit the weakness and provide recommendations for how it can be resolved.

Our Pentest Process in 6 Steps

At BOSSIT, we strive for transparency. No unnecessary jargon, just a clear and straightforward pentest process. From the initial conversation to the pentest report, we ensure a streamlined experience. Below, we outline the 6 steps of our pentest process. We will guide you through this with the aim of strengthening your cybersecurity!

1. Introduction and Scoping

In the first phase of our pentest process, the introduction and scoping, the focus is on building a solid foundation. We begin by getting to know your organization, its goals, and specific cybersecurity needs. Next, we define the scope of the penetration test, precisely determining the systems, applications, and objectives to be examined. This phase lays the groundwork for an effective and targeted test, tailored to your unique situation and challenges.

2. Pentest Quote

In the second part of our pentest process, the pentest quote, we strive for complete transparency and clarity. We carefully analyze the findings from the introduction phase and translate them into a detailed quote. At BOSSIT, we believe in a transparent approach, with no surprises later on. That’s why we work with fixed prices, so you know exactly what to expect and the costs involved. Our quote provides a clear overview of the proposed services and associated fees, allowing you to confidently decide on the next steps in strengthening your cybersecurity.

3. Penetration Test Agreement

In the third part of our pentest process, the Penetration Test Agreement, we detail the agreements and responsibilities. This agreement is essential to provide a clear framework for the execution of the penetration test. We describe, among other things, the scope of the test, the methodologies used, the schedule, and the reporting requirements. At BOSSIT, we value transparency and clarity highly, and we aim to prevent any misunderstandings. The Penetration Test Agreement provides both parties with a clear overview of expectations and ensures a streamlined and effective execution of the test.

4. Pentest execution

In the fourth part of our pentest process, the execution of the pentest, our experienced ethical hackers get to work thoroughly testing your systems for vulnerabilities. We utilize advanced methodologies and tools to simulate realistic attack scenarios, thereby exposing any weak points. During this phase, we strictly adhere to the agreed scope and procedures, working carefully to minimize disruptions to your operational environment. Our focus is on identifying and documenting potential security risks. This enables us to prepare a comprehensive report that can assist you in analyzing the findings and determining further actions to improve security.

5. Pentest report

In the final phase of our pentest process, the pentest report, we deliver a comprehensive and detailed report. This report accurately describes all findings, including identified vulnerabilities, the methodologies used, and recommended solutions and improvements. At BOSSIT, we strive for clear and understandable reports that make technical information accessible to all stakeholders. Our goal is to provide you with a clear insight into the security status of your systems, enabling you to take targeted measures to strengthen your cybersecurity.

6. Remediation and Re-Testing

In the sixth and final phase of our pentest process, the remediation and re-testing, we assist you in implementing the recommended solutions and improvements to address the identified vulnerabilities. Our team is ready to advise and guide you in taking the right steps to strengthen the cybersecurity of your systems. After remediation is completed, we conduct a re-test to verify whether the measures taken are effective in reducing risks. This phase highlights our commitment not only to identifying vulnerabilities but also to working together with you on sustainable solutions for robust cybersecurity.
