Managing security vulnerabilities is no easy task: identifying, classifying, remediating, and mitigating weaknesses in the IT infrastructure is a continuous process that has only grown more challenging with an increasing number of attacks. Most organizations have the fundamentals in place: running regular vulnerability scans, establishing basic prioritization methods, having a patching process, and maybe even having some metrics.
Exploit types
- Phishing, SQL, Brute Force DDOS
Teaming
- Red teams, blue teams, purple teams

Pen Test Pivoting
Though cybersecurity defenses are increasingly sophisticated, threat actors have also become more creative in order to achieve their end goals. They continue to find new ways to use the technologies most integral to businesses – mobile devices, computers, servers, websites, wifi, and email – as entry points to breach networks for malicious purposes. What more can be done to reduce the risk of attack?
As we continue to adapt in these unprecedented times, many workplaces have remained fully remote. In fact, some organizations have seen enough benefits from remote work that they are planning a permanent shift away from a traditional office environment, instead having their workforce either partially or fully remote. Whether temporary or permanent, remote work has been a large adjustment for everyone, though perhaps even more so for each organization’s security teams.

Core Impact allows organizations to easily and efficiently conduct penetration tests. Security teams can take advantage of an intuitive interface, guided automation, and a controlled environment to deploy multiple types of attacks, gather information, create thorough reports, and re-test to validate remediations.
According to the 2023 Pen Testing Report, 93% of cybersecurity professionals reported pen testing was at least somewhat important for their compliance initiatives. Why is pen testing as a key component of compliance initiatives, and what is the best strategy for meeting this requirement?

According to the 2023 Pen Testing Report, 94% of cybersecurity professionals surveyed felt that penetration testing was somewhat important or important to their organization’s security posture, with 93% also reporting that penetration testing was at least somewhat important to their compliance initiatives.
“When it comes to client-side penetration testing, Core Security demonstrates progressive vision by providing a huge number of exploits for common client software and a rich post-exploitation framework. Anyone who pays any attention to malware attack trends knows that client-side vulnerabilities are frequently used by cyber-criminals to install malicious crime-ware such as the Zeus/Zbot, Torpig, Clampi threats and many others.”
