Vulnerability Assessment vs. Penetration Test

A Vulnerability Assessment relies exclusively on automated testing tools to quickly scan your IT environment, including your network and/or any web-based software applications, to identify potential security vulnerabilities. The assessment is typically the first step in analyzing an environment’s “attack surface” and is performed when (i) security protection is believed to be low to modest, and (ii) the need exists to quickly identify/prioritize potential vulnerabilities to rapidly eliminate as many as possible.

A Penetration Test, also called pen testing or ethical hacking, applies both automated tools and manual techniques in attempting to achieve specific attack objectives such as planting ransomware or other forms of malware, as well as stealing or altering an organization’s sensitive data. A penetration test attempts to exploit discovered vulnerabilities to determine whether unauthorized access or malicious activity is achievable.

Summary: A vulnerability assessment typically precedes a penetration test and searches for weaknesses when security is uncertain and, therefore, vulnerabilities likely exist. Penetration testing complements a vulnerability assessment by validating whether the target IT environment, which is believed to be secure, is in fact secure. Penetration testing typically includes both network penetration testing and application security testing and should be launched from both outside the network (external testing) and inside the network.

  • Because you may be an easy target for a hacker.
  • To ensure your data and infrastructure is protected.
  • To ensure any customer data you store is protected.
  • To avoid enormous potential financial losses.
If your organization’s IT infrastructure uses any type of access system, either to an internal or external network, and if you manage data that should be protected and kept confidential, then it is always advisable to regularly conduct security testing. Any infrastructure connected to the Internet, including internal networks, software applications, laptop/desktop computers and servers, is vulnerable to cyberattacks and can be a target for cybercriminals.

Benefits of performing a vulnerability assessment and penetration test include:

  • Discovery of security vulnerabilities in your systems.
  • Knowledge on the way those vulnerabilities can be exploited.
  • Information on the risks particular vulnerabilities carry.
  • Solutions to solve every vulnerability.
  • Greater protection of your business’s IT infrastructure.
  • Higher security standards when accessing your company’s resources.
  • Protection of your confidential and proprietary data.
  • Control against unauthorized access and improper use of your data.
  • Protection against the loss of sensitive information.
  • Prevention against an intruder that would tamper with your network.

Vulnerability Assessment

Web Application

Our web application vulnerability assessment uses automated tools to identify a web application’s vulnerabilities such as input validation, poor coding practices, weak configuration management, weak authentication and many others. CloudPro security engineers test and scan your web application to classify and prioritize vulnerabilities in accordance with their potential impact on your business. We direct your attention to the most critical weaknesses that demand immediate action.

Our report provides classification, severity, evidence and potential remediation for each vulnerability. CloudPro delivers vulnerability assessment reports that filter out false positive vulnerabilities to minimize remediation effort. Customized reports also can be generated.

  • Reveal your web application security vulnerabilities before attackers find them.
  • Increase the security level of your web application.
  • Receive help addressing vulnerabilities.

While every business need is different, performing web application vulnerability assessments at least once per quarter is a best practice. However, vulnerability assessments may be required more frequently to adhere to compliance regulations, as well as when major changes in the web application’s code occur.

Network Assessment

A network vulnerability assessment identifies, classifies and prioritizes network infrastructure vulnerabilities, providing the necessary knowledge, awareness and risks that enable you to understand your environment’s vulnerabilities and the necessary remediation.

CloudPro delivers network vulnerability assessment reports that filter out potential vulnerabilities to reduce the number of false positives. We provide a summary of findings in an executive report, which is followed by a more detailed report providing classification, severity, evidence and potential remediation for the vulnerability. Customized reports also can be generated.

  • Analyze current level of security and rank vulnerabilities by threat level/remediation actions required.
  • Determine a quantifiable threat or risk for each vulnerability that exists on your network.
  • Identify vulnerabilities before a breach occurs to stay one step ahead of attackers.
  • Mitigate the causes of vulnerabilities.
  • Maintain security through ongoing testing and discovery.
  • Identify and mitigate vulnerabilities and misconfigurations that could lead to future compromise of IT infrastructure.

Penetration Testing

Web Application

The primary objective of a web application penetration test is to identify exploitable vulnerabilities in applications before hackers discover and exploit them. Web application penetration testing reveals real-world opportunities hackers would use to gain unauthorized access to sensitive data or even take control over systems for malicious purposes. It applies both automated tools and manual techniques in attempting to achieve specific attack objectives such as planting ransomware or other forms of malware, as well as stealing or altering an organization’s data. A penetration test attempts to exploit discovered vulnerabilities to determine whether unauthorized access or malicious activity is achievable.

  • Gain real-world insight into your vulnerabilities.
  • Determine if vulnerabilities highlighted during a vulnerability assessment are exploitable.
  • Keep untrusted data separate from commands and queries.
  • Develop strong authentication and session management controls.
  • Improve access control.
  • Discover the most vulnerable route through which an attack can be made.
  • Find any loopholes that could lead to the theft of sensitive data.

Network Assessment

Network penetration testing is a managed and controlled simulation of an actual invasion of the network. It provides a clear understanding and realistic experience of the type of intrusions that can be perpetrated upon your information systems. The methods cybercriminals use in attempting an intrusion is imitated to effectively test the security of your network. During this test, all your defenses are challenged to determine how your system detects intrusion and the effectiveness of your security mechanisms. This will be evaluated by a skilled ethical attacker, and you will have complete knowledge and insight into what is occurring during the testing process.

  • It simulates real world attacks.
  • It explores vulnerabilities in networks, systems and applications.
  • It discovers the root cause of the attacks and controls it.
  • It provides mitigation of the vulnerabilities found.
  • It provides a risk management document for companies.
  • It helps the companies in better deployment of security resources.

External network testing focuses primarily on the publicly available resources of your network that could cause it to be compromised. We can perform this test with full or no discovery of the target environment.  A detailed analysis of your servers, routers, firewalls and applications is done initially for this test. The first step is to test your publicly accessible information, followed by network enumeration

Internal network penetration testing is designed to demonstrate what a potential attacker could access if given a device or devices connected to your organization’s internal network. Using a defined connection and scope, our security experts will use a set of sophisticated attack techniques to try to gain access to your systems.

Website Vulnerability Assessment

Website vulnerability assessments identify security vulnerabilities, malware infections and other weaknesses exposing your website to serious potential security breaches. Vulnerabilities enable cybercriminals to inject malicious scripts into a website’s login fields and forms (such as “contact us”), permitting perpetrators to bypass authentication and gain full control of the site. Once in control, attackers can steal customer information, deface the site, and install viruses and scripts that not only compromise your site but can attack visitors and customers accessing your site, etc.

  • A single vulnerability can impact all pages on your site.
  • Vulnerabilities can go undetected for years if not remedied.
  • Sites and plug-ins not kept up to date often contain severe vulnerabilities.
  • Malware-infected sites are often removed from Google searches.

CloudPro’s website vulnerability assessment reports provide a comprehensive assessment of your website’s security posture and include the following:

  • Listing and explanation of all discovered vulnerabilities.
  • Severity level of all discovered vulnerabilities.
  • Identification of any malware residing in your site.
  • An assessment of whether your site’s CMS/plug-ins are up-to-date with the latest security patches (i.e. WordPress, Drupal, Joomla, etc.).
  • Suggested remediation plan of discovered vulnerabilities and malware.

While every business need is different, performing a network vulnerability assessment at least once per month is a best practice. However, vulnerability assessments may be required more frequently to adhere to specific business business requirements.
