Penetration Testing - Gray Box Penetration Testing

Penetration Testing – Deliverable Process

We are ready to help you test your IT system’s security to ensure protection against evolving cyber threats.

1. Kick-off & Information Gathering

• Discuss the scope and objectives of the testing.
• Inventory of targets: applications, servers, networks, APIs, etc.
• Collect technical data, access credentials, and existing security policies.
   

2. Planning & Test Design

• Define the type of test: black-box, white-box, or gray-box.
• Design attack scenarios and select testing methods.
• Choose appropriate tools, techniques, and metrics for the engagement.

3. Test Execution

• Simulate attacks using both manual and automated methods in a controlled environment.
• Ethically exploit identified vulnerabilities to demonstrate risk exposure.
• Collect evidence such as logs, screenshots, and payloads.

4. Analysis & Findings Evaluation

• Classify findings by risk level (critical, high, medium, low).
• Analyze potential impact on business operations and system integrity.
• Validate results and eliminate false positives.

5. Reporting

• Provide an executive summary for management.
• Detail each identified vulnerability with supporting evidence.
• Deliver technical recommendations for mitigation and remediation.
• Prioritize actions based on risk level and implementation effort.

6. Presentation & Discussion

• Present findings to relevant stakeholders.
• Discuss mitigation steps, priorities, and timelines.

7. Retesting / Validation (Optional)

• Perform retesting after fixes are applied to confirm vulnerabilities are resolved.
• Update the final report accordingly.

8. Final Documentation & Handover

• Deliver complete documentation for audit and compliance purposes.
• Provide implementation checklists and improvement guidelines.
