Penetration Testing
“We need to be working with a credible market player and a security provider that we are confident that we can trust in providing independent assurance that the network is robust and secure. On both counts, Sapphire fits the bill perfectly.”
Phillip Spencer, Principal Auditor and IT Manager, Derbyshire County Council.
Commissioning a penetration test or vulnerability assessment is an excellent way to ensure that security technologies are in place and functioning correctly.
Using custom toolkits and well established commercial tools the testing team is able to provide a unique and thorough assessment which is not possible using automated vulnerability scanners.

On completion of any test Sapphire will complete a management report and a full technical report. The deliverables will include recommendations for technical countermeasures and other improvements where appropriate. The reports will also make comparisons of previous test results to enable our customers to evaluate the effectiveness of ongoing patch management and configuration work.

A penetration test is an excellent way to ‘prove’ changes to network infrastructure by identifying any weaknesses exposed or corrected by the changes made.
It can also be used as a tool before connecting new services or applications onto a live network.
