Network Architecture Assessment

Internal and external testing to uncover unpatched exploits, weak configurations, and vulnerable open ports.

Web Application Testing

Rigorous evaluation targeting OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities, protecting APIs, database connections, and user portals.

Social Engineering Simulations

Evaluates workforce security awareness through realistic spear-phishing, credential harvesting, and baiting tactics.

Wireless and IoT Evaluation

Probing rogue access points, weak encryption standards, and misconfigured wireless network segments.

Identify Security Gaps Before They’re Exploited

IT networks are complex systems with many components, each representing a potential entry point for a cyber attacker. To protect your business, you need to stay current on patching, updates and other maintenance activities. Vulnerability scanning and penetration testing, identify these weaknesses before attackers can exploit them, protecting your systems and business.

A proven, low‑disruption testing methodology

Every Racksquared engagement follows a structured process designed to identify risks and deliver actionable results.

  1. Scoping and Rules of Engagement – Clarify objectives, assets, exclusions, and legal authorization.
  2. Reconnaissance and Discovery – Map your attack surface using open‑source intelligence and active discovery.
  3. Vulnerability Analysis – Combine automated scanning with deep manual testing to reduce noise.
  4. Exploitation andProof of Concept – Safely demonstrate impact with controlled tests.
  5. Post‑Exploitation (as scoped) – Simulate lateral movement and data access for high‑risk engagements.
  6. Reporting and Remediation Support – Deliver clear, prioritized findings and work with your team on fixes.
  7. Retesting – Validate that critical issues have been fully remediated.

Frequently Asked Questions

Most organizations test at least annually and after major changes such as new application launches, architectural changes, or mergers. High‑risk or fast‑moving environments often add quarterly or continuous testing for key assets.

Yes. Many clients require production testing for realistic results. We follow strict rules of engagement, avoid destructive techniques by default, and coordinate around maintenance windows to minimize any risk to availability.

A vulnerability scan is automated and generates a list of potential issues. A penetration test includes manual validation and exploitation to confirm impact, remove false positives, and prioritize issues based on real‑world risk.

Typically, a list of in‑scope assets (URLs, IP ranges, cloud accounts), any exclusions, preferred testing windows, and key contacts. For deeper tests we may request test accounts, architecture diagrams, or read‑only cloud access.

Penetration testing is often required or strongly recommended for frameworks like PCI DSS, SOC 2, and HIPAA. Pen Testing maps findings and reporting to your specific compliance obligations without reducing testing to a checkbox exercise.
