Infrastructure Security Testing
How well-protected are your internal networks, public-facing systems, or isolated environments?
Our Infrastructure Securirty Testing services are designed to identify security vulnerabilities within your internal and publicly exposed IT infrastructure. We have experience in testing diverse environments using various technologies such as Windows Active Directory, Linux environments, Ansible, SaltStack, proprietary and open-source virtualization systems, load balancers, various industrial control systems, network segmentation and extensions like VPN services.
Network Enumeration & Attack Surface Mapping
Identify assets, services, and trust relationships to uncover potential attack paths and maximize engagement efficiency.
Vulnerability Assessment & Exploitation
Simulate real-world attacker techniques to assess and exploit vulnerabilities, revealing how deep an adversary could penetrate your environment.
Privilege Escalation & Lateral Movement
Determine if attackers can gain higher privileges and move across systems to access sensitive data, evaluating the risk of internal compromise.
Targeted Assessment Options
Flexible testing approaches: choose broad internal/external penetration tests or focused assessments tailored to your specific infrastructure and business needs.
Most corporate networks make use of Microsoft Active Directory and our consultants have helped hundreds of companies increase the security of their domains, Windows, Linux and macOS clients joined to them and the design and policies in use. This type of engagement can also include non domain joined systems and third party products and services integrating with Active Directory.
Arctic Owl also offers reviews and security testing of other types of management systems, like Ansible, Puppet and MDM solutions, no matter if they are managed, or hosted, on premises or in the cloud. This includes DevOps and SecDevOps setups and infrastructure using orchestrators such as Kubernetes.
What if your company is in a different type of business? Another topic that is very appreciated by our consultants is Operational Technology (OT). The team has performed multiple assessments on industrial control systems (ICS), telecommunication systems from 2G to 5G and VoLTE, power grid automation, transportation and more.
All our assessment usually include security tests and reviews of your network segmentation, equipment setup, firewall configuration and network-level attacks.
Why Choose Our Infrastructure Penetration Tests?
A hands-on penetration test will give you value beyond standard scans thanks to our expert-driven analysis we uncover deep security gaps that automated tools miss. Why? Because our team has extensive experience with diverse technology stacks and how the integrate, or don’t, with each other making the team working on your engagement extremely adaptable. Encountering new things is not uncharted territory: if we have not seen it before, we are most likely well familiar with its cousin or predecessor, enabling us to adapt quickly.
After the active part of the engagement, you get data-driven insights & remediation guidance: our reporting is designed to be actionable, prioritizing the security improvements with highest impact on your overal security. It is possible to book workshops where we can collaborate with the internal team to get the most value out of the project.
