Stealth penetration checking is an important part of any overall network security plan. Progent's security experts can run extensive penetration checks without the awareness of your company's internal IT staff. Unannounced penetration checking shows whether existing security defense tools such as intrusion incident alerts and event history monitoring are correctly configured and actively monitored. Progent can implement ongoing automatic penetration testing to define your internal and external attack surface and to detect ways that exploitable vulnerabilities, unsafe configurations, stolen credentials, missing patches, and dangerous product defaults can be combined by hackers into the multi-front attacks typical of modern strains of ransomware.
