Find the Gaps Before Adversaries Do.
Vigilix Penetration Testing delivers manual, expert-led security assessments across networks, applications, cloud environments, and identity systems — exposing real attack paths with evidence-backed findings and clear remediation guidance.
Security Testing Across Every Attack Surface
Vigilix covers the full range of enterprise attack surfaces with targeted assessment methodologies for each environment and technology layer.
Network Penetration Testing
External and internal network assessments that simulate attacker movement across your perimeter and internal infrastructure — identifying exploitable vulnerabilities in firewalls, routers, and network services before adversaries do.
- External perimeter enumeration and exploitation
- Internal network lateral movement simulation
- Firewall rule analysis and bypass testing
- Service vulnerability identification
Web Application Testing
Manual and tool-assisted testing of web applications to identify injection flaws, authentication weaknesses, access control failures, and business logic vulnerabilities aligned to OWASP Top 10.
- OWASP Top 10 and beyond coverage
- Authentication and session management testing
- Business logic and privilege escalation
- API endpoint enumeration and abuse testing
Cloud Environment Testing
Targeted assessment of cloud infrastructure, IAM policies, storage configurations, and workload security across AWS, Azure, and GCP — exposing misconfiguration-driven attack paths that automated scanners miss.
- IAM misconfiguration and privilege escalation
- Storage bucket exposure and data access testing
- Serverless and container security review
- Cross-account and lateral movement scenarios
Active Directory & Identity Testing
In-depth testing of Active Directory environments, identity providers, and privilege models — simulating the techniques used by ransomware operators and APT actors to escalate from user to domain admin.
- Kerberoasting and AS-REP roasting scenarios
- ACL abuse and delegation testing
- Domain escalation path identification
- Credential exposure and pass-the-hash testing
Mobile Application Testing
Static and dynamic analysis of iOS and Android applications for data storage vulnerabilities, insecure communication, improper cryptography, and backend API weaknesses.
- OWASP Mobile Top 10 coverage
- Reverse engineering and static analysis
- Runtime manipulation and traffic interception
- Backend API security validation
Red Team Operations
Full-scope adversary simulation engagements that combine multiple attack vectors to test your organization's detection, response, and containment capabilities against a realistic, goal-oriented threat actor.
- Multi-phase, objective-based attack scenarios
- Physical, social engineering, and technical vectors
- Detection and response capability evaluation
- Executive debrief and program gap assessment
A Structured, Repeatable Testing Process
Every Vigilix penetration test follows a structured engagement methodology aligned to industry standards — ensuring consistent quality, defensible findings, and clear outcomes.
Scoping & Planning
We work with your team to define the engagement scope, rules of engagement, objectives, and success criteria. Clear scoping ensures the assessment reflects real-world risk — not artificial limitations.
Reconnaissance & Enumeration
Passive and active information gathering identifies attack surface, exposed assets, and organizational context that informs the targeting and prioritization strategy for the assessment.
Vulnerability Identification
Manual analysis and tool-assisted scanning identify potential weaknesses across the defined scope — distinguished from automated scanning by the expert context applied to separate genuine risk from noise.
Exploitation & Validation
Validated vulnerabilities are safely exploited to demonstrate actual impact — confirming the risk is real and measurable, not theoretical. Exploits are controlled and non-destructive.
Post-Exploitation & Pivoting
Once initial access is established, testers simulate attacker progression — lateral movement, privilege escalation, data access — to map the full impact of a successful breach.
Reporting & Remediation Guidance
A comprehensive report delivers technical findings with severity ratings, evidence, reproduction steps, and actionable remediation guidance — plus an executive summary suitable for leadership and boards.
What You Receive at the End of Every Engagement
Vigilix penetration testing engagements produce comprehensive, structured outputs that support both immediate remediation and longer-term program improvement.
Executive Summary Report
A clear, non-technical overview of the engagement, key risk findings, and the organization's exposure posture — designed for CISO, board, and leadership consumption.
Technical Findings Report
Full technical documentation of every vulnerability identified, including severity classification, CVSS scoring, evidence artifacts, and step-by-step reproduction details.
Attack Path Visualization
A mapped diagram of the full attack chain — from initial access to objective — illustrating how individual vulnerabilities chain together into a material breach scenario.
Remediation Roadmap
Prioritized remediation guidance aligned to business impact and exploitability, with clear ownership recommendations and suggested timelines for resolution.
Debrief Session
A structured debrief with your security and development teams to walk through key findings, answer questions, and provide context for remediation prioritization.
Retest Verification
Following remediation, Vigilix provides targeted retesting of critical findings to validate that fixes are complete and the attack path has been closed.
When Organizations Engage Vigilix for Pen Testing
Compliance-Driven Testing
Meet PCI-DSS, ISO 27001, SOC 2, and regulatory penetration testing requirements with documented, scope-defined engagements and compliant reporting formats.
Pre-Launch Security Validation
Validate the security of new applications, infrastructure, or cloud environments before production launch — catching exploitable vulnerabilities before they reach adversaries.
M&A Security Due Diligence
Assess the security posture of acquisition targets or subsidiaries with objective, evidence-based technical testing that surfaces hidden risk before close.
Annual Program Testing
Maintain a structured annual penetration testing program to continuously validate your security controls, satisfy compliance requirements, and track posture improvement over time.
