While many automated network penetration scanning systems exist, the value of having trustyworthy and reliable 'real people' to put your systems to the test cannot be underestimated.
Staying ahead of the hackers
While automated scanners can look for certain exploits and holes, they are only looking for what they already know about. Automated scanning systems can't think like the people who are potentially trying to get access to your systems. They don't come up with the new ways for circumventing security systems - the hackers do!
Sometimes it can be as much as three months before automated systems are updated with news of new vulnerabilities, potentially leaving you open to significant risks.
Is that a risk you're willing to take?
Proactive protection
Virya Technologies employ a team of specialist "white hat" hackers who can run an entire system penetration test, or just against one particular server or piece of software.
Attacks don't always come from outside...
Whether you are looking for black box testing (where we have no prior knowledge about your network infrastructure or 'way in') or white box testing (simulating an attack from within the company), or perhaps somewhere in between, you will receive an detailed analysis of the tests which have been run, any vulnerabilities which were detected along with a traffic-light rating of the potential severity associated with leaving these vulnerabilities unchecked. Our specialists are also able to suggest ways in which you can resolve any issues that might have been identified, and can carry out remedial work as required.
For complete piece of mind, Virya Technologies recommend that automated scanning is used in conjunction with regular network penetration tests, to ensure that your organisation remains compliant with it's security policies and protected. We can advise on a range of automated scanning systems appropriate to all sizes of business.
