Discovery
We identify your objectives and the public-facing systems you want assessed.
External Penetration Testing
External Penetration Testing Services
Test your internet-facing attack surface before someone else does.
External penetration testing evaluates approved public-facing systems from an outside attacker perspective to identify exposed services, validate meaningful vulnerabilities, and prioritize fixes.
Based in Utica, Kentucky and serving organizations throughout the United States. Remote engagements are available nationwide, with travel available when a project requires on-site work.
What we assess
Assess the systems attackers can reach from the internet.
Testing is performed only against explicitly authorized targets. Scope and rules of engagement are established before any active testing begins.
- Internet-facing host and service discovery
- Attack-surface review within the authorized scope
- Validation of relevant vulnerabilities
- Authentication and configuration weaknesses when applicable
- Authorized exploitation to demonstrate impact where appropriate
- Evidence-based reporting and remediation priorities
Scoped to your environment
Every engagement is defined around your goals, systems, testing depth, reporting needs, and project constraints. Written authorization and clear testing boundaries are established before active testing begins.
