Our External Pen Testing Methodology

Avertium’s external penetration testing methodology is a multi‑phase, OSINT‑driven, manually validated offensive testing process that maps, exploits, and documents real attack paths to provide actionable, business‑aligned remediation guidance:

  • Phase 1: Scoping and planning tailored to your environment according to business context, risk posture, and relevant requirements 

  • Phase 2: Testing execution through real-world simulation of adversary behavior,  including exploitation, credential abuse, and vulnerability chaining 

  • Phase 3: Reporting actionable, business-aligned insights built for both technical and executive stakeholders, including prioritized findings and remediation recommendations.

  • Phase 4: Optional remediation support through a spectrum of specialized services to unburden your team, and a retest to verify remediation progress and confirm risk reduction.

Reveal external blind spots. Reduce real risk.

Get visibility into exploitable perimeter weaknesses - and a clear plan to fix what matters most.

They usually have their core recs, and then a broader scope of recs that really add a lot of value to things beyond PCI. We’ve never failed a security audit from a customer because of what we’ve established – Avertium has been a huge part of that success.”
