Types of penetration testing we perform
Trying to adjust out-of-the-box solutions and integrate multiple third-party tools is hard, and there is no guarantee of success. The Apriorit team will build a tailored solution that manages your network exactly the way you expect it to, bringing:
White-box
Effectively uncovers insider threats.
With full system knowledge, we conduct DoS attacks, memory forensics, and fuzzing.
Black-box
Simulates real-world external hacks.
We simulate an external hacker attack with no prior system knowledge using vulnerability scanning, social engineering, and brute forcing.
Gray-box
Efficiently reveals both internal and external vulnerabilities.
We combine white-box and black-box elements with limited system knowledge, offering balanced, efficient testing with a partial review of the systemโs code.
Key phases of the penetration testing workflow
Over the years, weโve built a clear pentesting algorithm that involves these phases:
Pre-attack phase
- Get familiar with your product: architecture, infrastructure, and business logic.
- Define and document the intruder model, goals, data, scope, and targets.
- Develop a methodology and synchronize it with your team
- Prepare software for testing with attack surface mapping and other activities.
Attack phase
- Attempt to breach the network, escalate privileges, access data, and erase traces.
- Identify existing vulnerabilities and potential attack vectors.
- Exploit vulnerabilities to identify their current risk level and the possible impact on your system.
Post-attack phase
- Assess potential damage and send you an extensive report.
- Establish a continuous penetration test policy and provide actionable insights for enhancing your product security.
- Opt for expert remediation of discovered security issues in your code or network configurations and perform a follow-up check.

FAQ
What are the key considerations when performing penetration testing?
If conducted by an inexperienced tester or without due attention, penetration testing can do more harm than good. Before conducting pentesting, you need to consider its major drawbacks:
<ul class=apriorit-list-markers-green>
<li>High cost of mistakes, as improper testing can crash servers or expose data</li>
<li><a href=/dev-blog/how-to-manage-constraints-in-software-development-effectively>Time and scope limitations</a> can significantly affect the comprehensiveness of testing</li>
</ul>
Apriorit efficiently mitigates these issues with extensive experience in penetration testing and cybersecurity, ensuring thorough, unbiased assessments that prioritize meaningful improvements and enhance overall security.
How much does penetration testing cost? Are there any hidden fees?
The cost of penetration testing depends on factors such as:
<ul class=apriorit-list-markers-green>
<li>Testing type (e.g., red teaming, web app testing)</li>
<li>Approach (white-/gray-/black-box)</li>
<li>Targets (applications, user roles)</li>
<li>Team qualifications (number of testers)</li>
</ul>
These variables can significantly influence the overall cost as the scope and complexity of penetration testing projects differ. At Apriorit, we offer transparent pricing structures tailored to your specific needs.
Can you fix the security flaws you find?
<p>Yes, Apriorit can not only identify security flaws through our extensive pentesting services but can also effectively remediate them. With 20 years of experience in cybersecurity, our expert team possesses the knowledge and skills to address vulnerabilities discovered in the testing process.</p>
From patching software weaknesses to implementing robust security measures, we ensure comprehensive protection for your systems, providing peace of mind and safeguarding against potential cyber threats.
What is the main difference between vulnerability scanning and penetration testing?
<p>Vulnerability scanning identifies known vulnerabilities within a system, providing a snapshot of potential weaknesses. Penetration testing goes further by simulating real-world attacks to exploit vulnerabilities and assess the systemโs resilience.</p>
At Apriorit, we excel in both approaches. For your system, we can perform <a href=/rd-services/security-testing>vulnerability scanning</a> to identify weaknesses and penetration testing to evaluate system defenses. As a result, youโll get a full picture of your security posture.
How often should I perform penetration testing?
<p>The recommended frequency of penetration testing varies based on the industry, regulations, system changes, and the threat landscape. For example, at Apriorit, we offer testing when you need to comply with regulatory requirements, roll out significant updates, or experience security incidents. We can also conduct annual testing for ongoing security monitoring.</p>ย
If your software product is in a high-risk industry like finance, healthcare, or government, you can perform penetration testing more frequently to ensure ongoing risk mitigation.
How do you define the scope and goals of a pentesting project?
<p>Defining the scope and goals of a pentesting project involves three steps:</p>
<ol>
<li>Identifying primary business risks and crucial data.</li>
<li>Analyzing the system architecture and prioritizing components for pentesting.</li>
<li>Prioritizing pentesting tasks based on risks, known weaknesses, and your specific goals.</li>
</ol>
At Apriorit, we work closely with you to flesh out the scope of testing and target specific components that require the most attention.
