Sleep Better Knowing Your Systems Are Secure

You’re running a business, not a cybersecurity operation. But every day, your systems face threats you might not even know exist. That’s where penetration testing comes in.

The result? You know exactly where you stand security-wise. No more wondering if that new software has vulnerabilities. No more losing sleep over whether your firewall is actually protecting you. Just clear answers and actionable steps to keep your business safe.

Vulnerability Assessment Process Shelbyville

Straightforward Testing That Actually Works

We start with a conversation about your specific concerns and business requirements. No cookie-cutter approach – we need to understand what you’re protecting and what compliance standards you need to meet.

Next comes the actual testing phase. We use the same techniques hackers would, but safely and with your permission. This includes network penetration testing, web application testing, and social engineering assessments. We work during your preferred hours to minimize any business impact.

After testing, you get a detailed report that makes sense. We don’t just list technical vulnerabilities – we explain what each one means for your business and rank them by priority. Then we sit down with you to review findings and discuss next steps. You’ll know exactly what needs fixing first and what can wait.

Our penetration testing covers everything that matters to your business security. Network penetration testing examines your firewalls, servers, and internal systems. Web application penetration testing looks at your websites, customer portals, and online tools for vulnerabilities.

We also test your wireless networks, check for social engineering vulnerabilities, and assess physical security where relevant. Each test is thorough but designed to avoid disrupting your daily operations.

You receive detailed documentation suitable for compliance audits, insurance reviews, or board presentations. We also provide remediation guidance and can help implement fixes if needed. This isn’t just a one-time test – we’re here to help you maintain strong security over time.

How long does penetration testing take for a typical business?

Most small to medium businesses can expect penetration testing to take 1-3 weeks from start to finish. The actual testing phase usually runs 3-5 days, but we spread this out to minimize impact on your operations. We can work evenings or weekends if that fits your schedule better. Larger networks or complex applications may take longer, but we’ll give you a clear timeline upfront. The key is doing it thoroughly without rushing – you want to find real vulnerabilities, not just check a compliance box.
Not if it’s done right. We design our testing approach to avoid disrupting your daily business. This means scheduling tests during off-hours when possible, using non-destructive testing methods, and coordinating with your team throughout the process. We’re not trying to crash your systems or cause downtime – we’re looking for vulnerabilities that could be exploited. If we do need to test something that might cause brief interruptions, we’ll discuss it with you first and plan accordingly.
Vulnerability scanning is automated – software checks your systems against known vulnerability databases and gives you a list of potential issues. Penetration testing is manual and much more thorough. We actually try to exploit vulnerabilities to see if they’re real threats. Scanning might find that you have an outdated software version, but penetration testing determines whether that actually puts your business at risk. Think of scanning as a quick health check and penetration testing as a comprehensive physical exam by a specialist.
Costs vary based on what you need tested and how complex your systems are. A basic network and web application test for a small business typically runs a few thousand dollars. That might sound like a lot, but consider that the average data breach costs small businesses over $100,000 in recovery, lost business, and regulatory fines. We provide detailed quotes based on your specific situation, and we can often work within your budget by prioritizing the most critical systems first.
Absolutely. Antivirus and firewalls are important, but they’re just one layer of protection. Penetration testing finds the gaps that these tools miss – misconfigured settings, unpatched software, weak passwords, or social engineering vulnerabilities. Think of it this way: you wouldn’t assume your house is secure just because you have locks on the doors. You’d want to know if a window was left open or if someone could pick the lock. That’s what penetration testing does for your digital security.
You get a detailed report that explains each vulnerability in plain English, not just technical jargon. We rank everything by risk level so you know what to fix first. More importantly, we don’t just identify problems – we provide specific remediation steps for each issue. We can also help implement fixes if you don’t have internal IT staff, or work with your existing team to address the vulnerabilities. Many clients schedule follow-up testing after remediation to verify that fixes worked properly.
