Penetration Testing Services with IBM Security

Share this post:

Malicious attacks against corporate assets are constantly on the rise, with 54 million security events in 2016 – three percent more events than in 2015. In response, many organizations are already conducting security testing as part of a comprehensive security strategy.

But is that testing actually improving security, or is it just checking the box on a security checklist?

An effective security testing program is one that…

1. Has the skill to test virtually any technology around the world, no matter how obscure.
2. Has the agility to meet on-demand testing requirements without the need for time-intensive and inaccurate scoping activities.
3. Provides enterprise-wide security testing, combining expert-level manual testing and automated, tool-based vulnerability scanning assessments in the appropriate ratio
4. Leverages vulnerability analytics to extract value from test and scan data and help isolate risks.
5. Offers speedy, centralized communication and collaboration through an offensive security collaboration, project management and reporting portal.
