Vulnerability Assessments
Detect, evaluate, and mitigate gaps in your systems to strengthen your overall security posture.
Learn from simulated cyber-attacks and fortify your defences. Put your security systems to the test with simulated manual cyber attacks from our highly trained Intrusion Testing team. By rigorously testing your security systems, Hera can uncover your unknown points of threat exposure - allowing you to fortify your defences before they can be exploited.
The average cost of a data breach in 2024 is $6.32 Million, a 10% increase over last year 1. The average ransomware payout from Canadian businesses in 2023 was approximately $300,000 2. In this increasingly costly and tumultuous environment of cyber threats, proactice defence is crucial to business success. Reach a new level of cybersecurity with Hera Intrusion Testing services. We'll collaborate closely with you and your team, providing transparent, authentic feedback and adaptable solutions, ensuring your cybersecurity measures are as tough and comprehensive as they are user-friendly and approachable.
Our Intrusion Testing Services go beyond standard checks and predetermined programs. Our certified Intrusion Testing Teams are meticulous in identifying potential weak spots in your digital armour - fortifying your organization and resulting in a well-rounded, resilient defence strategy. From testing in multiple different environments to multiple authentication levels across multiple platforms - we leave no stone unturned.
Red teaming is an advanced form of penetration testing that simulates a real-world, multi-faceted cyber attack over an extended period. Our red team uses a combination of digital, physical, and social engineering tactics to test your organization's overall security posture. This holistic approach helps you understand how well your defenses can withstand a coordinated attack and identify areas for improvement.
Purple teaming is a collaborative approach that combines the strengths of red teaming (attackers) and blue teaming (defenders). Our purple team works alongside your security team to simulate attacks and defenses in real-time, sharing insights and improving tactics. This continuous feedback loop enhances your organization's ability to detect, respond to, and mitigate threats effectively.
External Network intrusion testing simulates attacks from outside the organization to identify vulnerabilities in your external-facing systems and networks. Our ethical hackers attempt to breach your defenses from an outsider's perspective, revealing weaknesses that could be exploited by real attackers. We provide detailed reports with recommendations to strengthen your external security posture.
Internal network intrusion testing involves simulating an attacker who has already gained access to your internal network. This type of testing identifies vulnerabilities that could be exploited from within your organization, such as misconfigurations, weak passwords, and insufficient access controls. Our findings help you secure your internal network against insider threats and compromised accounts.
Hera's Web Application / API intrusion testing focuses on identifying and exploiting vulnerabilities within your web applications, including progressive web apps (PWAs), single page apps (SPAs), and more. Our team of ethical hackers use advanced techniques to find flaws such as SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), and authentication bypasses. We provide a comprehensive report detailing the vulnerabilities discovered and offer remediation steps to secure your web applications.
Mobile application penetration testing evaluates the security of your mobile apps on various platforms (iOS, Android). Our experts identify vulnerabilities that could be exploited to access sensitive data or gain unauthorized control over the app. We test for issues such as insecure data storage, weak authentication, and improper session handling, providing recommendations to secure your mobile applications.
Cloud security penetration testing evaluates the security of your cloud infrastructure and services. Our testers identify vulnerabilities in cloud configurations, access controls, and data storage practices. We offer insights and remediation strategies to enhance the security of your cloud environment and protect sensitive data from unauthorized access.
Social Engineering intrusion testing assesses your organization's vulnerability to attacks that exploit human behavior. Our experts conduct simulated phishing campaigns, pretexting, and other social engineering techniques to gauge your employees' susceptibility. We provide insights into the effectiveness of your security awareness training and offer strategies to improve your defenses against social engineering attacks.
Privilege Escalation testing is designed to identify vulnerabilities within your systems that could allow attackers to gain elevated access to sensitive data or administrative controls. By simulating an attacker who has already gained basic access, we explore how weaknesses in permissions, configurations, or software can be exploited to increase privileges. This service helps you secure your internal systems by uncovering hidden risks and implementing stricter controls to prevent unauthorized access to critical assets.
