Penetration Testing FAQ's
1. What is penetration testing and why does my business need it?
Penetration testing is a controlled security assessment that identifies vulnerabilities in IT systems, networks, applications or infrastructure by testing how they could potentially be exploited. It helps businesses understand where weaknesses exist, assess the level of risk they present and take action before those vulnerabilities can be exploited by a real attacker.
​
2. What can Nexclowd test during a penetration test?
Nexclowd can carry out penetration testing across different areas of an organisation's technology environment depending on the scope and objectives of the assessment. Testing can include external and internal infrastructure, networks, web applications and other systems where security vulnerabilities need to be identified and assessed.
​
3. Will penetration testing disrupt our business or IT systems?
Penetration testing is planned and scoped before testing begins to minimise unnecessary disruption. Nexclowd agrees the systems being tested, testing methodology and appropriate boundaries with the organisation beforehand, allowing the assessment to be conducted in a controlled manner while protecting normal business operations.
​
4. What happens after a penetration test is completed?
Following a penetration test, Nexclowd provides clear findings detailing identified vulnerabilities and their associated risks. The results can be used to prioritise remediation work, strengthen security controls and address weaknesses. Where required, further testing can be carried out to confirm that identified vulnerabilities have been successfully resolved.
​
5. How often should a business carry out penetration testing?
The appropriate frequency depends on the organisation, its systems and level of cyber risk. Many businesses carry out penetration testing at least annually, as well as after significant infrastructure changes, the launch of new applications or major system updates. More frequent testing may be appropriate for organisations operating higher-risk environments or working to specific security and compliance requirements.
