Network security assessments are an integral part of security life cycle. Deficiencies in network and wireless security and enforcement of security policy often allow internet based attackers to identify and compromise sensitive networks. To retain complete control over your networks and data, you must take a proactive approach to security, an approach that starts with assessment to identify and categorize your risks. Symosis performs network and wireless security assessments using a proven methodology comprising of discovery, enumeration, vulnerability mapping, exploitation and documentation. The assessment provides the assurance and understanding of the technical security of the network and creates proactive defensive plan to protect your systems from the existing and emerging threats
Network Vulnerability Assessment
Using tools and techniques developed over years of assessment experience our security experts identify known and unknown vulnerabilities present on your networks. External assessments show what is vulnerable from an attacker's perspective on the Internet, discovering issues that can be used to gain access to systems, cause a denial of service, or be exploited by worms and viruses. Internal assessments discover threats posed by individuals who have gained physical access to the internal network or disgruntled employee’s intent on elevating privilege or disrupting services. Symosis network vulnerability assessments are designed to provide an overall picture of system and network vulnerabilities.
Key Benefit
• Security assessment of internal network, external network and supporting infrastructure
• Consistent repeatable testing allows trends analysis and provides measurement of remediation effort
• Timely and Cost effective
Penetration Assessment
Taking network based testing to the next level Symosis will analyze the Network Vulnerability assessment results and develop an attack plan that simulates an actual compromise, commonly referred to as a pen-test. Once a plan is approved Symosis will execute it and exploit vulnerabilities on your network to meet penetration objectives defined with your organization. This testing analyzes multiple vulnerabilities, linking them together in a chain of events to compromise target systems. The outcome of each engagement provides your organization with an understanding of the real implications of vulnerabilities to your overall security. Symosis takes a structured approach to this phase and treats it as a separate service line due to the sensitivity of executing live attacks.
Key Benefits
• Applies the hacker mindset to discover systems and exploit vulnerabilities
• Thorough manual analysis provides exhaustive coverage and improved security assurance
• Detailed documentation with remediation plan ensures weaknesses discovered are fixed and validated
Wireless Assessment
Organizations face two main issues in the wireless environment, the strength of their wireless solution, and the risk posed by rogue access points or clients. Symosis helps you understand your risk by accessing the strength of your current wireless deployment. The first step is to perform a site walk-through to discover all wireless devices in range. The second step involves testing the authorized access points and clients. Symosis encompasses WLAN (wireless local area network) testing as a whole to determine if an attacker can gain access to the wireless network and what level of logical access is granted, as well as testing the security of wireless clients. The final step is to identify rogue access points and rogue clients to determine if they are connected to your LAN and what risk they pose to your organization.
Key benefits
• Identifies all access points, rogue devices and tests for vulnerabilities
• Analyzes system architecture, configurations and interview employees
• Provides technical findings, policy recommendations and procedural solutions
