Closer to your pen test date, you will receive a questionnaire that collects the needed information and documentation. You will then work with your pen tester to ensure your office is prepared for the test and that you won’t experience any downtime.

Brick House Pen Testers then attempt to find and exploit your vulnerabilities by using industry-standard methodologies such as target profiling and enumeration, automated testing, service research, and application analysis. Brick House Pen Testers document everything they find, simplifying remediation.
Remediate
