S-Quadra - Makers of Fine Pen Tests

Pen Test is short for "Penetration Test", which attempts to gain unauthorized access to a system to see what happens. Why do businesses invest in Pen Testing?

First, because they realize that all systems are individual and that therefore only an individual test can determine the characteristic strengths and weaknesses of their system(s). The particular machines used to build your system, their connections, the changes inevitable within a system as it is operated, can all cause change within your system, and change is always uncertain. Pen Tests add value to a product, allowing for the future to be planned with surety, knowing that a system will serve a business well.

Obviously, not all systems will experience an attack or major malfunction. But all systems are vulnerable, a potential liability as well as a valuable asset. When a system is taken offline, IT techs require overtime bringing it back. Revenue generated from the system may be lost, productivity, lost, information, lost, and trust between you, your customers and suppliers, lost. Consider losses in manufacturing delays, software/hardware rebuilds, accounting backlogs and anything else you can think of. How much is all this worth? Could your company afford such a cost, even once? A Pen Test is great insurance against this hazard.

Pen Tests help secure your system from hackers as well as from internal malfunction and misuse. Furthermore, there are laws now regulating how secure data bases must be. Our experts can assess your database?s compliance to these laws.

Pen tests are best performed by third party professional teams. First, security needs are evolving as fast as computer technology itself. Keeping up with changes in technology, software, equipment and methods is an expensive task. We already maintain an investment in this; thus, you don?t have to. With us, you always receive the best in computer security services.

Second, in security, redundancy is a good thing. A valuable kept behind a locked door is simply not as secure as a valuable kept behind two doors with several locks each. Furthermore, a company can hire the best network and system engineers, establish and follow the best policies and still someone can make a mistake. With two groups, an iterative, interactive process of evaluation and enactment is possible, and stagnation, impossible.

In short, Pen Tests ensure that your system will work as it was intended to work: fast, efficient, user friendly, and business secure.
