About the White Paper:
There are many different types of vulnerability assessments. Penetration Analysis focuses on understanding the vulnerabilities of components that you?ve made available on the network as seen from the perspective of a skillful and determined attacker who has access to that network. We call that set of vulnerabilities, your exposure profile. This type of assessment is designed to help protect yourself against potential hacker attacks. A Penetration Analysis is one of the few effective means of proving whether a given networking infrastructure actually satisfies the security requirements of an organization. Since 1994, SystemExperts has been performing penetration tests for some of the largest multinational financial institutions, the premier networking companies, and the most successful dotcoms. The content for this white paper is distilled from our experiences in conducting nearly five hundred tests and in helping clients to respond to some of the most public and thorough hacker attacks. The author of this white paper is the originator of the methodologies and techniques that SystemExperts has been using in this area since the mid 1990s. |
