Vulnerability Assessment Process

Straightforward Testing That Won't Disrupt Operations

First, we’ll discuss your specific concerns and compliance requirements. Every business is different, and the testing approach should reflect that.

The actual testing happens during agreed-upon timeframes that minimize any impact on your daily operations. We’re looking for vulnerabilities in your network, applications, and systems using the same techniques that real attackers would use – but safely.

You’ll get a comprehensive report that breaks down what we found, how serious each issue is, and exactly what steps to take to fix them. No vague recommendations or generic advice – specific actions you can actually implement.

Comprehensive Security Assessment Coverage

Our testing covers your network infrastructure, web applications, and any systems that could be entry points for attackers. This includes both external testing from an outsider’s perspective and internal testing that simulates what happens if someone gets inside your network.

You’ll receive detailed documentation that satisfies compliance auditors and insurance requirements. The report includes executive summaries for leadership and technical details for your IT team or vendors.

Many Linton businesses are surprised by what gets found – often it’s not the obvious stuff, but configuration issues or forgotten systems that create the biggest risks. That’s exactly why professional testing matters.

How long does penetration testing take for a typical business?

Most small to medium businesses can expect the testing phase to take anywhere from a few days to two weeks, depending on the scope and complexity of your systems. The actual hands-on testing is usually completed within a week, but you’ll want to factor in time for the initial planning discussion and report preparation. We work around your schedule to minimize any disruption to daily operations. We’ll give you a realistic timeline upfront based on what needs to be tested.
Professional penetration testing is designed to avoid disrupting your business. We schedule testing during agreed-upon windows and use techniques that don’t interfere with normal operations. We’re not trying to crash your systems or cause downtime – the goal is to identify vulnerabilities safely. In most cases, your staff won’t even notice the testing is happening. Any activities that could potentially impact operations are discussed and approved beforehand, and they can be scheduled during off-hours if needed.
Vulnerability scanning is automated – software checks for known security issues and generates a report. Penetration testing goes much deeper. It involves actual human expertise trying to exploit vulnerabilities the way a real attacker would. Scanners might find that a system has a potential weakness, but penetration testing determines whether that weakness can actually be exploited and what an attacker could accomplish. Think of scanning as getting a list of possible problems, while penetration testing proves which problems are actually dangerous to your business.
The cost depends on the scope of what needs to be tested – how many systems, applications, and network segments are involved. Most small businesses in the Linton area can expect to invest anywhere from a few thousand to several thousand dollars for comprehensive testing. While that might seem significant, it’s typically much less than dealing with even a minor data breach. Many businesses find that the testing pays for itself through reduced insurance premiums, compliance benefits, and the prevention of costly security incidents.
Antivirus and firewalls are important, but they’re just part of your security picture. Penetration testing finds the gaps that these tools miss – things like misconfigured systems, weak passwords, unpatched software, or social engineering vulnerabilities. Even well-protected businesses often have security issues that only become apparent when someone actually tries to exploit them. Think of antivirus and firewalls as your first line of defense, while penetration testing verifies that your entire security strategy is working as intended.
You’ll receive a detailed report that prioritizes the findings based on risk level and provides specific remediation steps. We don’t just hand over a report and disappear – we’ll walk through the findings with you and help you understand what needs immediate attention versus what can be addressed over time. Many businesses work with their existing IT support or vendors to implement the recommendations. Some clients also schedule follow-up testing after making changes to verify that the vulnerabilities have been properly addressed.
