Internal Penetration Testing & Assumed-Breach Assessment

Start from inside the environment or an agreed foothold to test how far an attacker or compromised user could move and what they could reach.

01Expose realistic internal attack paths
02Validate Zero Trust, segmentation, and privilege controls
03Prioritize fixes by business impact

What is included

A complete, decision-ready engagement.

Final scope is tailored to your environment, objectives, and constraints. A typical engagement can include:

  • Internal network enumeration
  • Assumed-breach and standard-user starting points
  • Host, port, and service discovery
  • Vulnerability validation and exploitation
  • Active Directory attack path analysis
  • Privilege escalation testing
  • Credential exposure and password assessment
  • Lateral movement and segmentation testing
  • Internal application and admin portal testing
  • Sensitive file share and data exposure review
  • Final report and one retest within 90 days

A strong fit for

Organizations with a clear reason to act.

01

Organizations validating zero-trust or segmentation initiatives

02

Teams preparing for compliance or customer testing

03

Businesses that need to understand post-compromise impact

Engagement model

Structured for control and momentum.

Scope, communication, and handoff are designed to work with enterprise stakeholders without creating unnecessary process.

01

Prepare

Define authorized access, network scope, exclusions, testing windows, and response contacts.

02

Traverse

Evaluate discovery, credentials, privilege, lateral movement, and access to critical resources.

03

Strengthen

Report attack paths, support remediation sequencing, and verify eligible fixes.

Questions

What buyers usually ask.

The scoping call covers environment-specific questions, dependencies, timing, and deliverables.

Do you need an assumed-breach starting point?

It is often useful, but the starting condition is agreed during scoping and can be tailored to the objective.

Can you test network segmentation?

Yes. Segmentation validation can be included when the relevant networks and safeguards are in scope.

Internal & Assumed-Breach Testing

Turn this priority into a controlled plan.

Use the scoping call to confirm the objective, environment, stakeholders, and right-sized engagement before making a commitment.
