Internal Network Penetration Testing

Home Services Penetration Testing Internal Network Penetration Testing

Is your internal network truly resilient to advanced attacks that can come from both inside and outside your organization? In a rapidly changing IT environment, where Active Directory manages identity and access, and network devices and shared systems are the foundation of business operations, securing internal infrastructure is critical. Our process follows the Penetration Testing Execution Standard (PTES), which guarantees a methodical and comprehensive approach to identifying and eliminating vulnerabilities. We use the latest techniques and attack tactics to detect even the most subtle vulnerabilities that can compromise your network security. At Elementrica, we strive to ensure that your internal infrastructure is robustly protected against advanced threats by identifying and eliminating vulnerabilities and implementing security best practices.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you want to know about Internal Network Penetration Testing

What are internal network penetration tests and why are they important for our company?

Internal network penetration tests are simulated attacks on your internal network infrastructure to detect and eliminate security vulnerabilities before they are exploited by cybercriminals. They are crucial to protecting sensitive data, ensuring business continuity and maintaining your company's reputation. Regular testing helps identify vulnerabilities that can be exploited for unauthorized access, information theft or system disruption.

What is the process of performing penetration testing of an internal network according to the PTES standard?

The process of internal network penetration testing according to the PTES (Penetration Testing Execution Standard) begins with an in-depth understanding of your specific infrastructure and business objectives. Our experts conduct a full analysis of your network asset inventory, identifying key components such as Active Directory, network devices and backup systems. We then use the latest attack techniques and tactics to conduct a security assessment, simulating real-world threats.

What are the most common vulnerabilities detected during internal network testing?

During penetration testing of an internal network, we most often identify outdated software with known security vulnerabilities, weak password policies and insufficient authentication mechanisms. Open ports without adequate security allow unauthorized access to systems, and misconfigured firewalls allow uncontrolled network traffic. Additionally, a lack of proper network segmentation can allow attacks to spread within the infrastructure, increasing the potential damage.

Will internal network penetration tests affect the operation of our systems and availability to users?

Internal network penetration tests are carried out in a way that minimizes the impact on the operation of systems and availability to users. Our specialists plan the tests to avoid downtime, often performing them during off-peak hours. We take a cautious approach and closely monitor the process to ensure the continuity of your services. In addition, we maintain constant communication with your IT team to ensure that all activities are as expected and do not negatively impact your daily business operations.

How do you ensure the confidentiality and security of our data during and after internal network testing?

The security and confidentiality of our customers' data is our top priority. All information provided during internal network testing is protected by a non-disclosure agreement (NDA). We use strict security procedures, including data encryption and access control, to ensure that information is protected both during transmission and storage. Once testing is complete, data is securely deleted in accordance with established retention policies.

Will internal network penetration testing help us meet regulatory requirements and security standards?

Yes, internal network penetration testing is often a requirement in many regulations and security standards, such as PCI DSS, ISO 27001 and NIS2. Performing the tests helps identify and eliminate vulnerabilities, which is key to meeting regulatory and industry requirements. Additionally, we provide reports and documentation that can be presented during audits or inspections, confirming your company's commitment to data protection and information security.

What are the costs associated with internal network penetration testing?

The cost of internal network penetration testing depends on several factors, such as the scope of work, the complexity of the infrastructure, the number of active end-users, servers and the specific requirements of the client. After an initial analysis and determination of the scope of testing, we prepare a personalized offer, tailored to your budget and needs. Investing in penetration testing brings significant benefits, minimizing the risk of serious security incidents and protecting your company's reputation.

Do you offer reports and recommendations after completing penetration testing of an internal network?

Yes, after completing penetration testing of an internal network, we provide a detailed report that includes a description of the vulnerabilities found, their potential security impact, and specific recommendations for addressing them. The report is prepared in a way that both technical and management teams can understand. In addition, we offer to discuss the results with your team and support in planning corrective actions to ensure effective implementation of the recommendations and strengthen application security.
