An External Network Penetration Test assesses your public facing network infrastructure. Vulnerabilities can often arise from misconfigurations, unpatched software or credential breaches. These vulnerabilities can be exploited by attackers, allowing them to gain access to a business’s internal network.

As part of an External Network Penetration Test, we manually attempt to infiltrate your network from the outside, in order to discover existing vulnerabilities. We’ll document and prioritise any vulnerabilities exploited, and will include clear remediation steps that will help to better secure and protect your external network.

Our external network testing methodology is built upon the Penetration Testing Execution Standard (PTES) and the Open Source Security Testing Methodology Manual (OSSTMM). The vulnerabilities we look for vary depending on the technologies configured and the scope agreed with the client.

Findings are consolidated and prioritised in a report alongside clear remediation recommendations. The report is structured in a way that benefits stakeholders at all levels of technical understanding.
