Network Penetration Testing
Network penetration testing is a crucial procedure for identifying security flaws, network weaknesses, and threats that could damage any organization's network, website server, and other applications if they are attacked by hackers. By simulating attacks in order to gain unauthorized access to a target network, you can determine how secure your network is at present. That's why penetration testing has become so important for identifying whether vulnerabilities are risks and exploiting them intentionally but ethically.
Why Network Penetration Testing Is Important ?
Network security is a crucial consideration for any company working over the internet, LAN, or in another manner. Despite the fact that there is no completely secure network, deploying a reliable and efficient network security solution to ensure the protection of client information is of the utmost importance. An effective network security solution lowers the danger of data theft and sabotage in the workplace.
Your servers will be protected from malicious software thanks to network security. It also assures the safety of shared information. A network security infrastructure provides different levels of protection against eavesdropping attacks based on the fact that they split data into several components, encrypt these components, and transmit them across distinct paths, thus preventing scenarios such as eavesdropping attacks from taking place.
Network Peneteration Testing (NPT) benefits
Network Pentesting helps you gain valuable insights into the underlying physical layer & network design of your IT infrastructure. It offers enough information regarding loose ends and vulnerabilities so that experts can fix them before anyone can gain access and misuse the information or steal unauthorized data.
Network penetration testing is a complex process that depends on the size of the network and how complex it is. There are many levels of vulnerabilities present on a network, such as weak and insecure protocols, wireless network vulnerabilities, product specific vulnerabilities, underlying network flaws, misconfigured networks, and network security vulnerabilities. An in-depth network security audit is conducted on a regular basis to determine whether everything within the network is 'in-place' when it comes to security. Network penetration testing proves useful because it identifies and exploits vulnerabilities in the network. Detecting these well in advance is a proactive way to mitigate threats rather than reactively taking action after an incident occurs.
NPT Methodology
In order to identify and confirm security vulnerabilities, network attacks, configuration problems, and application logic defects in a network, Mighty's network penetration testing method relies mostly on the Penetration Testing Execution Standard (PTES).
Penetration testing comes in a variety of forms. Depending on the product being tested, network penetration testers may employ a combination of two or more of these approaches.
External Network Testing
A security examination of an organization's perimeter systems is known as external penetration testing (commonly called external network penetration testing). This type of pentest aims to uncover vulnerabilities in your externally accessible systems and services, gain access to confidential information, and uncover how an attacker might attack your clients or users.
Black-box testing refers to attempting to penetrate internal networks by exploiting holes. Through this method, you can gain a solid understanding of the weak points in your system and the routes through which sensitive information might be accessed.
Internal Network Testing:
A pen test is conducted to determine what damage can be caused to a network by an attacker who has gained initial access to the system. Pentests of internal networks can reveal insider risks, including hostile behavior on the part of employees, even if they are not aware of it.
Internal network security assessments are conducted using white-box penetration testing. Network penetration testing is intended to identify and exploit vulnerabilities that can allow blackhat hackers to gain access to confidential data.
