"The CORE IMPACT rapid penetration test saved us considerable time and money. It would have taken someone three weeks of work every quarter to do what CORE IMPACT did in just a few hours."

"Our approach is based on the premise that penetration testing must be a fundamental piece of any mature IT security program, in terms of testing from both the internal and external perspectives. It's a critical element of what needs to be done to get to the heart of any vulnerabilities that you might have to eliminate them before they can be compromised."
