Internal Network Penetration Test

Overview

Internal infrastructure penetration test focuses on simulating attacks which could be carried out by an hackers who has already gained a foothold within your network and is looking to elevate themselves to gain further control of your network. It also deals with security holes that could be taken advantage of by a malicious insider user. An internal network penetration test can mirror insider threats, such as employees intentionally or unintentionally performing malicious actions as well as external user gaining access to the internal network.

Vulnerability Scan Vs Penetration Test

Compared to Vulnerability Scan, Penetration tests go deeper. A typical vulnerability scan is performed using an automated security scanner that detects patterns and signatures that match a pre-defined set of vulnerabilities. However, scans are not capable to cross referencing vulnerabilities for targeted attacks. Automated scans are also incapable of understanding critical business functions and unique infrastructure specific to your organization. Complete dependency on vulnerability scans may result in missing critical security flaws and insecure device configurations.
