During this phase, we perform port scans, vulnerability scans, and testing for all computers, devices, databases and networking equipment on in-scope networks. We then validate the scan results to weed out false positives by manually verifying a subset of results within particular vulnerability classes, review the discovered vulnerabilities. We include ones marked as “Low” or “Informational”, as well as manually probe the in-scope networks to look for additional methods of entry or compromise not flagged by a scanner.

Our penetration testing services go beyond the surface, providing a comprehensive Wi-Fi penetration testing services to identify and mitigate vulnerabilities in wireless networks. Our testing evaluates the security of your Wi-Fi infrastructure, including encryption protocols, access points, and authentication mechanisms, to uncover risks such as weak passwords, rogue access points, or unauthorized devices.

Our experts simulate real-world attack scenarios to test the resilience of your network against threats like eavesdropping, man-in-the-middle (MITM) attacks, and network spoofing. With UNIT5’s Wi-Fi penetration testing, your organization can ensure a secure wireless environment, safeguard sensitive data, and prevent unauthorized access to critical systems.

In an External Penetration test we assess the security of your internet-facing systems and infrastructure. Our team simulates real-world attack scenarios to identify vulnerabilities in publicly accessible servers, firewalls, routers, and other perimeter defenses.

We test for weaknesses such as misconfigured services, outdated software, open ports, and exploitable vulnerabilities that attackers could use to gain unauthorized access. With UNIT5’s external network penetration testing, your organization can proactively address security gaps, strengthen its perimeter defenses, and protect critical assets from external cyber threats.

We perform an in-depth assessment of web applications in order to discover vulnerabilities caused by programming errors, configuration weaknesses, or faulty assumptions about user behavior. Both manual inspection and automated scanning tools are used to identify vulnerabilities.

Mobile Application Assessment – During this stage of the test we investigate the security surrounding mobile applications that are used by the business and customers. The investigation would include assessing application-level vulnerabilities, as well as issues dealing with API calls made to your servers.

API penetration testing involves evaluating the security of an application programming interface (API) to identify vulnerabilities that could be exploited by attackers.

UNIT5 specializes in comprehensive API penetration testing services designed to identify vulnerabilities in your APIs, such as insecure authentication mechanisms, improper input validation, and authorization flaws.

We support leading platforms like AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud, conducting thorough evaluations to uncover issues such as exposed services, insecure APIs, or excessive permissions.

With UNIT5’s cloud penetration testing, your organization can confidently mitigate risks, ensure compliance with industry standards, and fortify your cloud environment against potential threats.

ICS (Industrial Control Systems) and SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) penetration testing focuses on assessing the security posture of systems used in critical infrastructure, manufacturing, and other industrial environments. ICS/SCADA penetration testing requires skilled testers familiar with both cybersecurity principles and industrial system operations. Proper collaboration with engineering teams and cautious testing techniques are essential to balance security assessment with operational safety.

We specialize in penetration testing for Industrial Control Systems (ICS) and Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) environments, ensuring the resilience of critical infrastructure against cyber threats. Our approach is tailored to industrial environments, balancing security assessments with operational safety.

Starting as a least privileged user we attempt to gain access to other systems, identify sensitive information, escalate privileges on the network, and pivot to other areas of the network using a local system with only normal user credentials provided by you. The level of access used as a starting point simulates what an attacker may have gained through a successful phishing email campaign or by imitating an employee or contractor. This item is meant to highlight the “unknown unknowns” and assist your company with understanding what can happen and how ultimately allowing you to raise the bar on your internal security.

Adversary Simulation is a cybersecurity testing method where expert teams replicate advanced threat actor behaviors. These exercises simulate tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) employed by adversaries, including insider threats, external attackers, and nation-state actors, to measure the resilience of your security infrastructure.

Our Adversary Simulation service replicates real-world attack scenarios to help organizations evaluate and enhance their cybersecurity defenses. By simulating the actions of skilled adversaries, UNIT5 identifies vulnerabilities, assesses security gaps, and tests the effectiveness of your detection and response mechanisms.

Purple teaming is a security methodology whereby red and blue teams work closely together to maximize cyber capabilities through continuous feedback and knowledge transfer.

Through joint exercises, we identify vulnerabilities and test your defenses, providing real-time feedback to improve security controls, monitoring systems, and incident response procedures. This continuous collaboration ensures that both offensive and defensive strategies are aligned, helping your organization become more adaptive and resilient to evolving threats. With UNIT5’s Purple Teaming, you can effectively bridge the gap between attack and defense, building a stronger and more cohesive security posture.

Advanced Threat Emulation (ATE) is a proactive cybersecurity approach that simulates sophisticated cyberattacks to test and improve an organization’s security posture. By emulating advanced persistent threats (APTs), ransomware, malware, and other evolving attack methods, ATE enables organizations to identify vulnerabilities, validate defenses, and refine their incident response strategies in a controlled environment.

UNIT5’s Advanced Threat Emulation (ATE) service is designed to proactively identify and mitigate cybersecurity vulnerabilities by simulating sophisticated cyberattack scenarios. Our ATE offering empowers organizations to test their defenses against evolving threats and enhance their overall resilience.
