PENETRATION TESTING
Stop Cyber Attacks in their Tracks with Penetration TestingThe number of ways hackers have to break into your network and wreak havoc is multiplying and putting a significant burden on your IT’s ability to protect your business
Your Business is Under Constant Threat
Hundreds of millions of records containing sensitive information are compromised monthly, putting your network, your devices, and your data under constant risk. What is worse, according to Inc. Magazine, 60% of organizations go out of business within six months of a cyber attack.
What is a Penetration Test?
Penetration testing, or pen testing, is an authorized simulated cyber attack on a computer system and network that is used to evaluate the security of a company’s IT.
The test is performed to identify both weaknesses or vulnerabilities, including the potential for unauthorized parties to gain access to systems and data. A penetration test can help determine whether a system is vulnerable to an attack, if the defenses in place are sufficient, and which defenses (if any) the test defeated.
How exposed are your systems?
PEOPLE
Are they trained to recognize poor security practices?
Are they able to be bastions for the protection of your organization?
PROCESS
Do you have processes and procedures in place & documented?
Can you prove your processes to a Security Auditor?
TECHNOLOGY
Are you keeping up with the latest advances regarding security?
Is your infrastructure outdated? Can it be adequately maintained?
Internal and External
Penetration Testing Approach
SCAN AND ENUMERATE TARGETS
- Perform external vulnerability scan
- Perform internal vulnerability scan (utilizes STN’s SecureSensor Appliance)
- Determine possible attack vectors
LEVERAGE ATTACK VECTORS
- Exploit to gain elevated privileges
- Network surveying, port scanning, system identification, services identification
- Vulnerability exploitation
- Password cracking
- Manually validate scan data and exploit vulnerabilities with manual and automated tools
- Network surveying, port scanning, system identification, services identification.
DETAILED REPORTING
Provide a detailed report of the attack vectors found and a report if the assessor was able to gain elevated privileges and recommendations for remediation.
- Remediation is available on a time and materials basis
- Provide Attestation as required
- Includes follow-up scan of initial vulnerabilities found to validate remediation efforts
Web and Mobile Application Penetration Testing
Application Penetration test is performed from the perspective of Authenticated user.

Cross Site Request Forgery, Cross Site Scripting and Client Injection Attack
Web Application Authentication Attacks
The tester will develop custom tools (scripting) to enumerate users and bypass and exploit weak authentication.
Web Application Configuration Testing
Web Application Overview
Web Application Session Management
Web Application SQL Injection Attacks
Custom Scripting
Reporting
- Remediation is available on a time and materials basis
- Provide Attestation as required
- Includes follow-up scan of initial vulnerabilities found to validate remediation
- You cannot be confident about the implementation of your security controls without testing them first and the best way to test your security controls is to simulate what the bad guys would do to evade or circumvent your security controls.

Public Cloud Penetration Testing
Most companies do not configure the security of their public cloud hosted applications correctly. Whether you’re running serverless, containerized, or on Infrastructure as a Service, STN will put your security to the test. STN’s team is uniquely skilled to test your applications hosted in the public cloud and help you reduce your attack surface and improve your security.
