Internal Penetration Testing
An Internal Penetration Test, also known as a "White-Box Pentest" involves simulating cyberattacks on a system with complete visibility into its internal workings. This approach helps identify vulnerabilities that might not be visible through other testing methods.
In this approach, the tester has full knowledge of the system to be tested including source code, architecture, relevant documentation and credentials.
For white-box penetration testing different methodologies could be used depending on the client. These include the OWASP Testing Guide, NIST SP-800-115 and the Penetration Testing Execution Standard (PTES).
How is it done?
Information Gathering: We collect detailed information about your system, including source code, network architecture, and user credentials.
Planning and Reconnaissance: We develop a testing plan based on the gathered information, identifying potential targets and attack vectors.
Vulnerability Analysis: We then analyze the system for vulnerabilities using both automated tools and manual techniques.
Exploitation: We attempt to exploit identified vulnerabilities to understand their impact.
Post-Exploitation: We assess the extent of the breach and gather evidence of the exploit.
Reporting: We document the findings, including vulnerabilities, exploitation methods, and recommendations for remediation.
Remediation and Re-testing: We work with your team to fix the vulnerabilities and re-test to ensure they are resolved.
The KaizenGuard Approach
What damage can a malicious insider do? A White-Box pen test can answer that.
Why perform a White-Box Pentest?
Comprehensive Analysis: Provides a thorough assessment of both internal and external vulnerabilities.
Early Detection: Identifies vulnerabilities early in the development process, reducing the cost and effort of remediation.
Wide Coverage: Detects vulnerabilities in areas not accessible through black box testing, such as source code and business logic.
Precise Identification: Accurately locates specific vulnerabilities and potential security gaps.
Compliance: Helps meet industry standards and regulatory requirements for security testing.
