Attack & Penetration
Body
Systems are penetrated by outsiders, insiders and business partners – and the cost of a data breach can rapidly multiply. The sophistication of IT attacks is on the rise and the statistics are disturbing:
- 75% of breaches are executed within minutes of initial internal network access
- 92% of organizations are made aware of a breach via third-party notification
- In 54% of cases, it takes companies more than one month to become aware of a compromise
- 38% of organizations take longer than one week to respond to and mitigate a breach
Protecting sensitive data and systems helps organizations avoid costly breaches, loss of intellectual property, business disruption and reputation damage.

Video - Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing
We provide solutions in the following areas:
Infrastructure Assessment
The “castle model” for infrastructure is still common in security practices, however if not continuously evaluated for vulnerabilities, it can quickly become ineffective. We help you see these vulnerabilities and build an infrastructure that secure and scalable to your business needs.
Application Assessment
Applications increasingly drive business value and are implemented not only by IT functions, but by business users. Applications running on insecure third-party or owned technologies are one of the most common vulnerabilities for an organization. We help you build a comprehensive view of these applications and ensure they drive value for you, but not hackers.
Network Assessment
Unavailable networks in today’s world mean lost revenue and frustrated revenue and customers. However, just because a network is up and running, doesn’t mean it is secure. We help you ensure all your networks are secure and available, so that you can drive your business forward confidently.
Database Assessment
In a world of business intelligence, databases are often the home to an organization's most precious customer, proprietary and employee information. With internal and third party groups accessing the information for value, we help you understand database vulnerabilities and plan to keep the information accessible and secure.
