Core Impact

Core Impact is designed to enable security teams to conduct advanced penetration tests with ease. With guided automation and certified exploits, the powerful penetration testing software enables you to safely test your environment using the same techniques as today's adversaries.

Replicate attacks across network infrastructure, endpoints, web, and applications to reveal exploited vulnerabilities, empowering you to immediately remediate risks.

Simple enough for your first test, powerful enough for the rest.

Key Features

Guided Automation

Core Impact's Rapid Penetration Tests (RPTs) are accessible automations designed to automate common and repetitive tasks. These high-level tests help optimize the use of your security resources by simplifying processes, maximizing efficiency, and enabling pen testers to focus on more complex issues.

Certified Exploits

Leverage our professionally written and validated exploit library for real-world testing capabilities. This stable library of commercial-grade exploits has real-time updates of new penetration testing exploits and tests for additional platforms as they become available, including third party exploits from ExCraft.

Patented Agents

Core Impact’s patented Core Agents simplify interactions with remote hosts. You can tell Core Impact what you’d like to do with the remote host and the agent will take care of the technical aspects.

Robust Error Prevention

Enable programmable self-destruct capabilities for agents at different levels (product, workspace, module/RPT). This means no agent is left behind after testing to drain resources or be used as a potential backdoor for attackers.

Teaming

Multiple security testers have the capability to interact in the same session, giving teams the ability to securely share data and delegate testing tasks. These shared workspaces provide a common view of discovered and compromised network targets for optimal collaboration.

Reporting

Automated reporting capabilities for consistent, thorough recording of engagements that can be used to plan and prioritize remediation efforts and prove compliance for regulations like PCI DSS, GDPR, and HIPAA.

Reports also feature the option of adding the layer output of the MITRE ATT&CK™ framework, a matrix of known attack tactics and techniques that can help classify attacks and further prioritize risks.

Common Use Cases

Automate the Routine

With Core Impact, you can easily automate routine testing, including proving PCI compliance, to maximize your resources, reserving third-party testing for your most robust and complex requests.

Give Your Vulnerability Scans an Ally

Core Impact validates vulnerabilities identified through more than 20 popular scanners, helping you prioritize remediation for your greatest security risks.

Measure Security Awareness

Use the ransomware simulator and Core Impact’s dynamic phishing capabilities to find out which employees are susceptible to these attacks and which critical data is most at risk.

Validate Remediation Effectiveness

Re-test exploited systems after a penetration test to verify that remediation measures or compensating controls are effective and working.

“What takes us three hours to do manually takes ten minutes with an automated tool like Core Impact, so it makes my day easier."
