Key Service Components

EGRESS FILTERING TESTING
Automatically perform egress filtering to ensure that your organization is effectively restricting unnecessary outbound traffic. Unrestricted outbound access can allow a malicious actor to exfiltrate data from your organization’s environment using traditional methods and unmonitored ports.
AUTHENTICATION ATTACKS
Upon the discovery of user account credentials, vPenTest will automatically attempt to validate those credentials and determine where they are most useful. This is a common process executed by both malicious attackers and penetration testers and is performed during privilege escalation.
PRIVILEGE ESCALATION & LATERAL MOVEMENT
Using a valid set of credentials, vPenTest will attempt to identify valuable areas within your organization. This is conducted through a variety of methods, including the use of vPenTest’s Leprechaun tool which assists in identifying where sensitive targets are.
SIMULATED MALWARE
With elevated access, vPenTest will attempt to upload malicious code into remote systems in an attempt to test the organization’s end-point
anti-malware controls.
DATA EXFILTRATION
Critical data leaving your organization is an extremely serious concern. If access to confidential and/or sensitive data can be attained, vPenTest will simulate and
log this activity to help your organization tighten areas that should restrict data exfiltration.
REPORTS AVAILABLE WITHIN 48 HOURS
Our detailed deliverables will allow your network staff to cross reference our activities with monitoring and alerting controls.

What are the benefits of Penetration Testing from Calligo?

BACKED BY EXPERTS
Combining the knowledge, skills, logic, and toolsets of numerous certified security consultants into one platform, vPenTest is the perfect solution to consistently satisfy your organization’s needs for quality results.
REAL-TIME ACTIVITY TRACKING
An important step to assessing your
organization’s risk is the ability to detect and respond to malicious activities occurring within your environment. vPenTest creates a separate log file for every single activity that is performed so you can correlate our activities with your monitoring and logging solutions.
MEET COMPLIANCE & BEST PRACTICES
By having the ability to perform
a quality network penetration test whenever you want and however
often you want, your organization can be assured that it will continuously meet security best practices and compliance regulations.

We offer two different network penetration testing services to guide your organization to a better security posture and program.

INTERNAL NETWORK PENETRATION TESTING
Using a device connected to your internal environment, our consultants will discover security vulnerabilities present within the internal network environment. These activities simulate that of a malicious attacker.
EXTERNAL NETWORK PENETRATION TESTING
Assuming the role of a malicious attacker from the public Internet, our consultants will identify security flaws within your external network environment. These flaws can include patching, configuration, and authentication issues.
