Penetration Testing Services

At Metro Tech Group, we believe that the key to robust cybersecurity lies not just in setting up defenses, but also in assessing their effectiveness regularly. Our comprehensive Penetration Testing Services (Pen Testing) are designed to simulate real-world attacks on your systems, helping you identify vulnerabilities before a malicious actor does.

Core Areas

Web Application

Evaluates the security of web applications by identifying vulnerabilities such as SQL injection, XSS, broken authentication, and insecure configurations. Focuses on the application layer.

API

Assesses the security of Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) to uncover vulnerabilities like insecure direct object references, excessive data exposure, and broken function level authorization.

Mobile App

Examines mobile applications (iOS and Android) for security flaws, including insecure data storage, weak cryptography, insecure communication, and client-side injection vulnerabilities.

External

Simulates an attack from outside your organization's network, targeting internet-facing assets like web servers, firewalls, and routers to find exploitable weaknesses.

Internal

Mimics an attack by an insider (e.g., an employee or contractor) with access to the internal network, identifying vulnerabilities that could be exploited from within.

Cloud

Focuses on the security of cloud environments (AWS, Azure, GCP), assessing configurations, access controls, and deployed services for misconfigurations and vulnerabilities.

Hardware

Involves assessing the physical security and firmware of hardware devices to uncover vulnerabilities that could lead to unauthorized access or manipulation.

Medical Devices

Specialized testing for medical devices to identify security flaws that could impact patient safety, data privacy, or device functionality.

Wireless

Evaluates the security of wireless networks (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth) to detect misconfigurations, weak encryption, and unauthorized access points.

Physical

Assesses the physical security controls of a facility to identify weaknesses that could allow unauthorized entry or access to sensitive areas.

IoT/OT

Tests the security of Internet of Things (IoT) and Operational Technology (OT) devices and systems, which often have unique vulnerabilities due to their embedded nature.

ICS

Focuses on Industrial Control Systems (ICS) and SCADA systems, critical infrastructure components, to identify vulnerabilities that could lead to operational disruption.

Source Code

Involves a detailed analysis of an application's source code to identify security vulnerabilities that might not be apparent during dynamic testing.

Compliance Testing

SOC 2 Compliance

Assesses an organization's information security system against the Trust Services Criteria (security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy) for SOC 2 reporting.

HIPAA Compliance

Identifies vulnerabilities in systems handling Protected Health Information (PHI) to ensure compliance with HIPAA Security and Privacy Rules, safeguarding patient data.

PCI DSS Compliance

Evaluates systems that process, store, or transmit credit card data against the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) requirements to protect cardholder information.

NIST CSF Compliance

Tests an organization's cybersecurity posture against the National Institute of Standards and Technology Cybersecurity Framework (NIST CSF) to improve risk management.

CIS Controls Compliance

Assesses adherence to the CIS Critical Security Controls, a prioritized set of actions to protect organizations and data from known cyberattack vectors.

GDPR Compliance

Focuses on identifying vulnerabilities that could lead to breaches of personal data, ensuring compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) for EU citizens' data.

FDA Compliance

Specialized testing for medical device manufacturers and healthcare entities to meet FDA cybersecurity guidance and regulations for medical devices.

ISO 27001 Compliance

Helps organizations identify weaknesses in their Information Security Management System (ISMS) to align with ISO 27001 standards for information security.

HITRUST CSF Compliance

Assesses an organization's security controls against the HITRUST Common Security Framework (CSF), a certifiable framework for managing risk and compliance.

CMMC Compliance

Supports defense contractors in meeting the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) requirements for protecting Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI).

Other Compliance

Customized penetration testing services to address specific regulatory or industry compliance requirements not explicitly listed, ensuring tailored security assessments.

Deliverables & Process

Detailed Exploit Reports

Comprehensive reports detailing each identified vulnerability, including steps to reproduce the exploit, impact analysis, and technical evidence to support findings.

Status Reports

Regular updates on the progress of the penetration test, including completed phases, outstanding tasks, and preliminary findings, ensuring transparency throughout the engagement.

Detailed Explanation on Remediation

Actionable guidance and specific recommendations for fixing identified vulnerabilities, including best practices, code examples, and configuration changes to enhance security posture.
