Penetration Testing

What is Penetration Testing?

How do you ensure you’ve identified vulnerabilities before a hacker has? What measures do you go to protect your clients’ sensitive information? How is your network infrastructure secured? Would your personnel pass a social engineering assessment? At KirkpatrickPrice, we want to find the gaps in your security before an attacker does.

Penetration testing is an authorized, simulated attack performed to evaluate the security and effectiveness of your organization’s systems, which gives your organization practice for a real-life attack. KirkpatrickPrice personnel will attempt to gain access to resources in your organization’s network without any prior knowledge of usernames, passwords, or other typical means of access.

How Can Penetration Testing Benefit Your Organization?

Undergoing regular penetration testing is key to your overall security posture. Performing regular penetration tests allows your organization to evaluate web application, wireless, internal, and external network security. It also helps you to understand what security controls are necessary to protect your people and assets. Prioritizing these risks gives organizations an advantage to anticipate and prevent potential malicious attacks from happening.

Penetration testing is proactive way to find vulnerabilities in your own systems but is also required by many compliance frameworks. For example, PCI Requirement 11.3.4.1 requires organizations to undergo two penetration tests per year to achieve compliance. To meet the Trust Services Criteria, you may need a penetration test. When performed in support of HIPAA compliance, the goal of security testing is to identify vulnerabilities that could result in access to Electronic Protected Health Information (ePHI).
