EH Testing is the use of hacker tactics and techniques to gather information about a networked system, server or bastion as well as to find areas of compromise, vulnerability and entry to the system. This is done with the intent of revealing security holes and areas that a malicious hacker could compromise. This type of testing employs several batteries of hacker tactics and techniques, including:

-Targeted Port Scans & Port Interrogations
-Port listeners, sweeps and “sniffing”, bridge "trolling"
-Trojan port Scanning, IP spoofing, "Zombie" tactics
-Dictionary cracking, Casual Credential Solicitation (CCS), Brute force attack (cracking), Tiger Teaming,

and many, many, MANY more!

This type of testing provides the client with the very best in network defense intelligence since the only other way they would have such results or information, is if this wasn't’t an ethical, "white hat" hacking test, but an actual "black hat" or malicious incident. This type of testing can provide integral baseline security information about a network or server. This service will provide insight and reveal security vulnerabilities which can be relatively inexpensive and simple to close.

After the testing, a detailed report will be issued. This report will not only include conclusions and recommendations, but also ways to implement the solutions, including costs, products specs, implementation time and other very useful information.
