Got Questions?
Penetration testing is important because it helps identify vulnerabilities that could be exploited by hackers. By conducting penetration tests, organizations can proactively address these weaknesses, enhance their security posture, and protect sensitive data from unauthorized access or breaches.
The frequency of penetration testing depends on various factors such as the complexity of the systems, the sensitivity of the data, and the industry regulations. At Stack we recommend our clients conduct penetration tests at least annually or whenever significant changes occur in the environment (e.g., new systems, updates, or major infrastructure modifications).
There are various types of penetration testing, including network penetration testing, web application penetration testing, mobile application penetration testing, wireless penetration testing, and social engineering penetration testing. Each type focuses on different areas of an organization’s infrastructure or applications.
Penetration testing is carefully planned and executed to minimize disruption and avoid downtime. At Stack we follow strict guidelines to ensure that tests are conducted safely without affecting the availability of systems or causing any damage.
The duration of a penetration testing engagement varies based on the scope and complexity of the systems being tested. Schedule a discovery call with us to learn more about how long a penetration testing engagement for your organisation would take.
Yes, penetration testing is legal when performed with proper authorization from the owner of the systems being tested.
Penetration testing assists organizations in meeting compliance requirements by identifying vulnerabilities and addressing them before they can be exploited. It demonstrates a commitment to data protection and security.
Penetration testing significantly enhances security. It provides valuable insights and allows organizations to take appropriate measures to strengthen their security.
At Stack we provide our clients with a comprehensive report detailing the vulnerabilities discovered, their impact, and recommendations for remediation. Reports often prioritize vulnerabilities based on their severity.
While penetration testing is highly effective, it is not possible to identify all vulnerabilities. It provides a snapshot of the security posture at a given time and should be supplemented with regular testing and security measures.
