Our Internal Pen Testing Methodology

Avertium’s internal penetration testing methodology is a multi‑phase, manually validated offensive testing process that simulates post‑breach attacker behavior to map, exploit, and document real internal attack paths—delivering actionable, business‑aligned remediation guidance:

  • Phase 1: Scoping and planning tailored to assumed access levels, business context, risk posture, and relevant requirements  

  • Phase 2: Testing execution through real-world simulation of internal attacker behavior, including privilege escalation, credential abuse, and lateral movement 

  • 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.

Expose internal blind spots. Reduce real risk. Avoid fire drills.

Gain clarity into what attackers can do once inside - and a clear plan to stop them before real damage occurs.

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.”
