Penetration Testing

Penetration Testing or ethical hacking is an exercise that attempts to simulate the techniques adopted by an attacker to compromise your systems. It helps to highlight those vulnerabilities which could be exploited by a remote unauthorized attacker. NII's penetration testing service is a highly creative, out-of-the-box engagement, and often results in new vulnerabilities being discovered or a new tool being developed from such an exercise. Visit the following links to get a better insight of our penetration testing related research activities:

• Sample report from a penetration testing exercise we carried out for a large enterprise
• Advisories of security vulnerabilities we discover - some of them during routine penetration tests
• Security testing tools that we have developed
• Articles that have appeared in various publications, again highlighting our innovative approach
• Presentations we have made at various security forums, especially on application security
