Our external network penetration tests are designed to evaluate the effectiveness of your security efforts at the outer edge of your network. This type of assessment typically answers questions related to which services you expose beyond your firewall and if those services are properly secured.
In addition, an external network penetration test is a great way to identify unauthorized rouge services such as personal gaming servers, personal web sites, or other unauthorized services that are utilizing network based resources at your expense.
Performing this type of penetration test on an ongoing basis is a great way to proactively maintain the first line of defense in your information security efforts.
