Internal Penetration Testing
What Is Internal Penetration Testing?
An internal penetration test simulates if an attacker had the equivalent internal access to an organization's network, how they might traverse the environment and attain unauthorized access to data, alter or destroy confidential information including Personal Identifiable Information. An internal pen test is performed from within the organization's network and it is practically identical to an actual attack. Our security consultants penetrates the systems and attempt to either take control of as many assets as possible or reach a particular target - as defined in the scope of the internal penetration testing engagement with your organization.
​
We ensure that we establish the rules and expectations of the engagement before we commence with testing. A penetration testing report is provided at the end of the test and it entails a combination of:
​
-
A compilation of our findings,
-
summary of key information about the targets identified during the test,
-
recommendations to mitigate the identified vulnerabilities.

Our Methodology
Bastion-Fort Security has extensive experience with complex architecture designs gained through years of experience working with clients of all sizes, industries and structures. As we are stay updated with hreat activity on a daily basis, we are constantly learning about the latest attack techniques, exploits and security flaws.
Our methodology covers:
-
Reconnaissance – Our team of security consultants will perform information gathering before any simulated attacks are executed.
-
Vulnerability Detection – Bastion-Fort Security will perform vulnerability detection to discover flaws in systems, networks and applications which can then be leveraged by the consultant.
-
Exploitation – Bastion-Fort Security will try to actively exploit security weaknesses identified in the vulnerability detection phase. To achieve this Pure Security may use publicly available, in-house developed or commercially available exploit kits.
-
Privilege Escalation – After a target has been successfully compromised, Bastion-Fort Security will try to gain a further foothold within the organization, this may involve gaining higher privileges in the system or potentially gaining access to other systems on the internal network. The end goal is to gain complete control of the network.
-
Data Exfiltration – Based on the scope of the project, Bastion-Fort Security may be required to perform data extraction. To achieve this, our security consultant will use a set of tools and techniques in order to extract specific data from the organization’s network.
-
Reporting and Delivery – Bastion-Fort Security will document, in priority order, the issues identified, along with recommendations for every issue identified. These are presented in a clear and meaningful way for both a technical and a business audience.
