We’re ringing in the new year with the latest release of Core Impact ! Version 21.3 strengthens the connection between Core Impact and Cobalt Strike, amplifying the capabilities of both tools.
In 2022, geopolitical unrest and an expanding online attack surface contributed to the emergence of several themes across the cyber landscape. Infrastructures associated with opposing ideologies were highly targeted, with government agencies, supply chains, and IOT devices falling victim to high-profile campaigns. Cybercriminals launched increasingly advanced attacks on vulnerable entities, with DDoS, ransomware, and hacking for a cause all consistently making headlines.
While the Core Impact team is hard at work to provide and enhance the most comprehensive pen testing tool, we want to be sure to regularly check in with those who matter most—our customers! That’s why we pull back the curtain every quarter to provide a look behind the scenes and show you what’s on the horizon.

Prior to launching a targeted attack against an organization, threat actors conduct thorough reconnaissance missions, gathering intelligence on employees, the infrastructure, and more. They want to know every possible inch of the attack surface to find every potential exposure before they make their move, using an array of tools and tactics to exploit vulnerable infrastructure.
Penetration testing is more than a bunch of ex-hackers in hoodies attempting to break into an organization that hired them. It is a carefully planned and organized engagement that probes and tests a defined piece of an organization's IT infrastructure for potential flaws. Without good intelligence to work from, testers cannot efficiently conduct their attacks, leaving potentially unidentified gaps in an organization’s defense.
