How often should you test your network?

 

When it comes to network security most security experts agree on one thing. The only sure way to confirm your security defenses are performing as expected is to perform some level of testing Whether your requirements fall into the category of general network vulnerability testing and assesments, or full blown penatration testing we can help. Our consultants encompass a wide and diverse background of technologies, skillsets and methodologies and we most likely have the right consultant for your requirements.

“Testing is the only way to validate that the security measures and procedures are working as intended. - From NIST Special Publication 800-35 Guide to Information Technology Security Services October 2002

To ensure your network is as secure as possible from hackers and breaches one time testing is never enough.

In fact Federal information systems are required to perform regular testing to ensure security defenses are performing as expected.

‘Periodic testing and evaluation of the effectiveness of information security policies, procedures, and practices, to be performed with a frequency depending on risk, but no less than annually”  -Federal Information Security Management Act of 2002-

Our network security engineers, analysts, and software engineer and security consultants can test all areas of your business or organizations network and perform most security testing and compliance associated processes including:

• Network periemeter enclave penetration testing
• Risk Assessments
• Policy review and compliancy
• DITSCAP & NIACAP reviews
• OMB A-130 Reviews
• FISMA, HIPAA and PCI reviews
• Computer security testing
• Analog testing (War Dialing)
• Application testing and debugging
• Social engineering tactics
• Personnel Screening and background investigations
• Forensic analysis and investigations
• Full blown investigations with licensed Private Investigators

Testing methods, techniques and personnel will vary depending on your requirements. Some clients require basic vulnerability testing where automated scanners like NESSUS, RETINA And in some cases, where we cannot help, we will make every effort to refer you to a firm qualified to do the work you require. However our partnerships and strategic alliances usually permit us to provide our clients with the real world hands on talent needed for your IT Security Testing, analysis or compliance needs.
