At PTG, we prioritize the ‘CIA’ Information Security triad, which includes confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
While many companies focus on addressing specific components of the CIA triad, confidentiality is often left vulnerable to social engineering and phishing attacks. It’s common for companies to inadvertently disclose confidential client information on their website or through social media, such as by allowing employees to publish client information on LinkedIn.
MITRE has published several articles on their ATT&CK knowledge base specifically addressing these issues, highlighting social media and disclosure through company website as common techniques used during the reconnaissance phase of an attack.
Privacy by Design (PbD) is a concept in information technology and data protection that emphasizes privacy and data protection considerations throughout the entire lifecycle of a product, service, or system. It involves designing and implementing privacy features and measures into the core architecture and operation of technology systems, rather than addressing privacy issues as an afterthought or add-on.
The idea behind PbD is to ensure that privacy is an essential part of the design process and to embed privacy-enhancing technologies and practices into every stage of development, from the initial design to the final disposal of the system. This approach aims to promote privacy and data protection by default, rather than as a secondary consideration.
PbD is often seen as a proactive and preventive approach to data protection, which can help to avoid data breaches, security vulnerabilities, and privacy violations. It has become increasingly important in the digital age, where the amount of personal data being collected and processed is growing exponentially.
At PTG, we have seamlessly integrated PbD into all of our services.
Our services adhere to the highest levels of security frameworks, benchmarks, and standards, such as NIST 800-53, FedRAMP, and CIS. In addition we follow the best penetration testing standards, including OWASP, NIST SP 800-115 and PTES
Typically 2-3 times more cost-effective than our competitors, we offer premium services at highly competitive rates. We guarantee the start and delivery dates of your penetration tests through binding Service Level Agreements (SLAs).
Included in our plans is an online Web & Application Vulnerability Scanner that supports both external (DAST) and internal scanning (SAST, SCA), as well as Cloud Security Posture Management.
Our team members hold various security certifications and formal trainings, including CISSP, CISM, GIAC, and SANS.
Ensuring complete confidentiality for our clients and key team members is our top priority, and we achieve this through our Privacy By Design policy.
Private Slack channel, Zoom, ticket or email are all available communication options.
Our team members possess various prestige security certifications or formal training on:
Penetration testing, often referred to as pen testing, is a simulated cyber attack on your systems and networks to identify vulnerabilities and security weaknesses before malicious hackers can exploit them.
Vulnerability scanning is an automated process to identify known vulnerabilities in systems and applications. Penetration testing, on the other hand, is a more comprehensive and manual approach that simulates real-world attacks to identify both known and unknown vulnerabilities.
We follow industry-leading standards including the OWASP Testing Guide, Penetration Testing Execution Standard (PTES), and NIST SP 800-115 to ensure thorough and up-to-date testing methodologies.
Yes, we can send you a redacted sample Penetration Test report. Please, contact us in order to get the report.
Yes we offer both a Free plan and a Free Trial for our vulnerability scanners.
We offer Pen Testing & VM services across all cloud providers (AWS, Azure, GCP, DigitalOcean, Oracle, etc), hybrid environments, and on-site/collocation data centers.
We work with all major GRC platforms including Vanta, Thoropass, Drata, Secureframe, Sprinto and more.
