Penetration testing is when we perform a double-blind assessment of your external (Internet) facing connections. A member of our Security Team is given your IP addresses and nothing more. They run between 60-80 testing tools to determine if they could penetrate your security and cause damage. Due to the amount of tools that are run and the time it takes for them to complete it can take a week or more to test a single IP address depending on the connection type and sensitivity of the equipment we are testing against. Again, this service is offered by the hour and a good rule of thumb is about 8 hours per IP address tested.
