Cyber crime on the rise

As per this article by Aspen Institute , an international nonprofit organization, –
Instances of cybercrime appear to have jumped by as much as 300 percent since the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic, according to the FBI. The bureau’s Internet Crime Complain Center (IC3) said it’s now receiving between 3,000 and 4,000 cybersecurity complaints every day, up from the average 1,000 complaints per day the center saw before COVID-19 took hold.

How pentesting helps businesses?

A security consulting service involves multiple phases to help customers identify, analyse and help with remediating the risks to business context. This exercise involves identifying risks as well as producing proof of concepts with supporting data, followed by business and technical level reporting. This includes details of impact, likelihood of attack and practical probability in context of business environment.

The main objective of a third-party independent validation exercise is to find security weaknesses that can be exploited by a threat actor. This would include checks around networks, applications, devices and other systems across the estate.

Think of this as a simulation exercise to assess an organisations’ readiness against cyber attack.
