A variety of in-house developed and publicly available tools are used throughout the penetration test. These include various scanners, open-source intelligence (OSINT) tools, vulnerability scanners, web application scanning tools, HTTP proxies, exploits and scripts customized for the application or network. These tools are continually reviewed and updated by our security specialists to ensure we are always one step ahead of the constantly evolving threats. The most important part of a penetration test however is always the manual testing process, where the qualified consultant selects the relevant tools for each circumstance, or potential vulnerability.
