Customized Penetration Testing as a Service (PTaaS) for your business

Every organization is unique, and so are its security needs. Our custom penetration testing service offers:

Penetration Testing vs. Vulnerability Assessment

Understanding the distinct roles of penetration testing and vulnerability assessment can help you make informed security decisions.

Penetration Testing:

    • A deep-dive simulation of cyberattacks to exploit and evaluate vulnerabilities.
    • Offers a realistic picture of how vulnerabilities can be exploited.
    • Essential for thorough security evaluation and advanced threat detection.

Vulnerability Assessment:

      • Involves identifying, categorizing, and prioritizing security vulnerabilities.
      • Provides an overview of potential risks without exploiting them.
      • Ideal for regular security checks and compliance purposes.

Our PTaaS Covers Every Aspect of Penetration Testing

At StrongBox IT, we believe penetration testing should be more than just a box-ticking exercise. Our Penetration Testing as a Service (PTaaS) provides comprehensive, multi-layered security testing that addresses every component of your IT environment. From applications and infrastructure to cloud assets and configurations, our goal is to leave no security gap unchecked.

Application Layer Testing
Modern web, mobile, and API applications are central to business operations and frequent targets for attackers. Our PTaaS includes thorough application layer testing to detect vulnerabilities such as SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), broken authentication, insecure data storage, and more. We go beyond automated scans by performing manual, logic-based testing to uncover flaws in business workflows and user roles. This helps identify how attackers could exploit your application’s functionality in real-world scenarios.

Infrastructure Testing
Your network infrastructure forms the foundation of your digital operations. Weaknesses at this level can provide attackers with direct access to internal systems. Our PTaaS platform offers both external and internal network testing, simulating attacks from outsiders as well as malicious insiders. We look for exposed services, unpatched software, insecure protocols, firewall misconfigurations, and lateral movement possibilities, providing a complete picture of how resilient your infrastructure is against exploitation.

Cloud Security Assessments
As organizations increasingly shift to cloud platforms like AWS, Azure, and GCP, cloud security has become a vital component of penetration testing. Our PTaaS includes cloud-specific security assessments that identify common misconfigurations such as open S3 buckets, over-permissive IAM roles, exposed access keys, and insecure APIs. We help ensure that your cloud setup adheres to best practices and remains protected against data leakage and unauthorized access.

Configuration & Hardening Checks
Misconfigured systems are one of the most common causes of successful cyberattacks. Our PTaaS includes detailed checks to ensure that your systems are configured securely based on industry standards like the CIS benchmarks. We examine password policies, service settings, unnecessary open ports, default credentials, and other areas where configuration weaknesses may exist. This step ensures your environment is properly hardened to resist common exploitation techniques.
