ShieldX provides rigorous penetration testing services to evaluate the security posture of your systems and applications. Our certified ethical hackers simulate real-world cyber attacks to identify vulnerabilities, test security controls, and provide actionable recommendations for improving your overall security.
Key Features:
01
External and Internal Penetration Testing
We perform both external and internal penetration testing to assess the security of your network infrastructure and applications from outside and inside perspectives.
02
Web Application Testing
Our penetration testers evaluate the security of your web applications, searching for vulnerabilities such as injection attacks, cross-site scripting (XSS), and insecure session management.
03
Network Infrastructure Testing
We assess the security of your network devices, including routers, switches, firewalls, and VPNs, to identify potential vulnerabilities or misconfigurations that could be exploited.
04
Social Engineering Testing
We conduct social engineering tests to evaluate the effectiveness of your organization’s security awareness training and policies, assessing the risk of unauthorized access through human interaction.
05
Report and Recommendations
We provide detailed reports outlining the vulnerabilities discovered during the penetration testing process, along with actionable recommendations for remediation.
06
Compliance and Regulatory Alignment
Our penetration testing services assist in meeting regulatory compliance requirements and aligning with industry standards.
Benefits:
Our penetration testing services simulate real-world cyber attacks, providing a comprehensive assessment of your security defenses and identifying vulnerabilities that could be exploited by malicious actors.
By addressing identified vulnerabilities and implementing recommended security measures, you can mitigate the risk of unauthorized access, data breaches, and other security incidents.
Our services assist in meeting regulatory compliance requirements and aligning with industry standards, ensuring that your security practices adhere to established guidelines.
By understanding your organization's security weaknesses through penetration testing, you can enhance your incident response capabilities and develop effective mitigation strategies.

Requirements for Service Provision
The Collaborative Approach of Shield-X Penetration Testing
Our Penetration Testing process begins with a collaborative video call involving your team
and our certified ethical hackers. During this session, we define the scope of the test,
understand the specific assets, systems, and applications to be assessed. This direct
interaction ensures that we gain a comprehensive understanding of your organization’s
unique requirements and security concerns. Once the scope is established, our team
conducts reconnaissance to gather information about your organization from publicly
available sources. Using this intelligence, we identify potential entry points for attacks. The
subsequent step involves vulnerability scanning, where automated tools are used to discover
known weaknesses and misconfigurations. Following this, our team manually verifies the
identified vulnerabilities to eliminate false positives and assesses their potential impact on
your systems. In the exploitation phase, we attempt to exploit the identified vulnerabilities,
simulating the actions of a real attacker. This process provides us with valuable insights into
the severity of the vulnerabilities and their potential impact on your organization. Finally, we
compile a comprehensive report detailing the findings, including a risk assessment and
recommended remediation steps. Our goal is to provide you with actionable insights and
recommendations to bolster your security posture and safeguard your critical assets from
potential threats. Throughout the entire process, open communication and collaboration
remain key tenets of our Penetration Testing service.
