Internal Network Testing

At Precursor, we understand the importance of your internal network and the impact security breaches can have on an organisation. We work closely with our clients to ensure that their networks are secured against a wide array of threats.

What is Internal Network Testing?

Disgruntled employees, compromised email accounts, remote access solutions, Internet Accessible Vulnerabilities, Phishing and many other attack vectors can result in an intrusion into your private corporate network.

Internal Network Penetration Tests evaluate the security of your company’s internal systems and reduce the likelihood of their compromise.  

Also known as Internal Infrastructure pen tests or Internal Network pen tests, the evaluation includes a review of your company’s entire network and Active Directory, as weaknesses in computer platforms and other innocuous devices can lead to the compromise of your company’s critical data.

Our CREST Certified Internal Network Testing  Methodology

Our internal network methodology is designed to identify hundreds of vulnerabilities including those that are regularly used by real-world attackers to compromise networks and data. We review every component of your network including:

  • Missing software patches from Microsoft and third-party software providers
  • Active Directory vulnerabilities in AD structure, GPOs and role provisions
  • Lack of access controls that allow the compromise of critical data
  • Sensitive data storage resulting in access to sensitive at-rest data
  • Weak passwords will be identified on AD and local accounts
  • Insecure Configuration of software such as Microsoft Office that can allow malware to take hold of systems
