What is Cyber Security Testing?
The primary goal of cyber security testing is to guarantee the privacy of information, data accuracy, and access to authorized users. Cyber security testing encompasses a variety of methodologies and tactics, to determine how effective your cyber security approach is against a prospective attack. This leads us to focus on three key aspects of security known as the CIA Triad: confidentiality, integrity, and availability. IAS performs all kinds of Cyber Security Testing and provides detailed reports to our clients.
Why Cyber Security Testing and What Can it Prevent?
Cyber Security Testing protects businesses from cyber-attacks and data breaches,unauthorized user access to the data and networks, and reduces the risk of loss or theft.Uncovered vulnerabilities within your network leave the door wide open for cyber attackers. You might conduct security tests internally and hire qualified cyber security testing firms to test and secure your IT infrastructure, but you’ll never know until it’s too late if your company is vulnerable to a cyber-attack.
IAS’s Penetration testing is one of the most recognized and widely used forms of cyber security testing. Penetration testing, also known as pen testing, helps companies identify vulnerabilities within their IT infrastructure. IAS helps in this first step to prevent a breach to know where your company’s vulnerabilities lie and helps you understand how to fix them.
Who Needs Cyber Security Testing?
Every aspect of our lives, from social media to internet banking to electronic hospital records, is now online. Hackers and other bad actors may compete for access to this data and use it for their gains. In other words, everyone requires cyber security.The following organizations would benefit the most from cyber security testing:
- Banks and financial institutions.
- IT consultancies
- IT security companies
These organizations must have a clear understanding of what assets they need to protect, where their vulnerabilities exist, and how to fix them. They should also be able to identify the cause of potential security breaches in the future so that more effective mitigation techniques can be implemented.
