Engagement Summary
Samurai was engaged by the client to provide continual and comprehensive Penetration Testing across a wide variety of their business systems. The primary goal was to identify and communicate security vulnerabilities that a real-world attacker may exploit. The clients’ focus is to continually address key cybersecurity concerns, including any potential attacks aimed towards their externally exposed services and applications, which if exploited could have a detrimental impact.
Project Approach
In combination with years of experience and expertise, Samurai used the OWASP testing methodology as the primary approach for the Penetration Testing projects. While the unique nature of the client’s systems can pose challenges, the Samurai team effectively navigated these obstacles and identified various improvements to be made on the system. Throughout the engagement, Samurai collaborated closely with the client to implement the improvements and worked hard to enhance their overall security posture.
