Test your defenses against real-world attacks.
Instantly evaluate your cyber resilience through realistic penetration testing and attack scenarios aimed at your organization and systems.
Instantly evaluate your cyber resilience through realistic penetration testing and attack scenarios aimed at your organization and systems.
Penetration testing services are designed to emulate real-world attacks against your network, people and systems to identify and uncover critical issues within your organization’s control structure. Our seasoned team of adversarial emulation consultants and white-hat hackers will use advanced tactics, techniques and procedures to put your organization to the test.
By knowing the vulnerabilities in your environment, you can make informed decisions about mitigating and monitoring associated risks. Our penetration testing process will not just help your organization become more secure, it will improve the capabilities of your team.
For organizations seeking ongoing evaluation, our Continuous Penetration Testing delivers real-time, continuous attack simulations to quickly identify emerging vulnerabilities. If your business handles payment card data, our PCI Penetration Testing ensures compliance with PCI DSS standards while securing your cardholder data environment.
Additionally, we specialize in protecting your digital assets with tailored Web Application Penetration Testing and Mobile Penetration Testing services designed to uncover security gaps unique to these platforms.
Our penetration testing service follows the Penetration Testing Execution Standard (PTES), widely accepted and adopted as a best practice in the industry. One of the key benefits of our approach is that we bring flexibility to best meet our clients’ needs.
Our penetration testing process is designed not only to help your organization improve your cybersecurity posture but also to ensure compliance with standards requiring penetration testing (e.g., CMMC, HIPAA, HITRUST, ISO 27001, NIST CSF, FFIEC, NCUA, GLBA, FISMA, SOC2 and more).
We use a standardized process/methodology that is broadly recognized and adopted within the security testing community:
We begin by aligning on timing, objectives, scope, and approved activities. During this phase, we also assess relevant threat intelligence to tailor our approach to the unique risks facing your organization.
Our team conducts Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT) to collect publicly available information about your organization. This helps identify potential entry points such as physical, digital, or human vectors that may be leveraged during testing.
We emulate real-world attacker profiles, techniques, and capabilities to assess your organization’s resilience. This process focuses on testing relevant controls and infrastructure, rather than targeting a generic IT inventory.
The team will identify potential weaknesses across systems, applications, physical infrastructure, and personnel. These may include misconfigurations, insecure design, poor physical security, or lack of awareness training. The vulnerabilities discovered here inform our exploitation strategy.
We attempt to bypass security controls and gain access to systems and resources. This phase builds on previous findings to uncover viable attack paths, focusing on those that are both high-impact and difficult to detect.
After access is gained, we evaluate the value of compromised assets and explore ways to maintain control. This includes identifying sensitive data, system settings, communication paths, and lateral movement opportunities to simulate advanced attacker behavior.

“We used Echelon Risk + Cyber for the first time to do our penetration testing this year. The experience was great as the team worked with our tight timelines and provided a thorough breakdown of what they would be doing and how long it would take. Any questions we had were answered promptly and there were no delays in the process. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a partner to perform their penetration testing.”
“Echelon Cyber has been an incredible partner from our very first implementation of a comprehensive security program to our recurring penetration test. From the start, the team has engendered trust, professionalism, and most importantly a spirit of true partnership to always help enhance our security posture. Absolutely recommend these folks for your needs!”
