Benefits of PCI Penetration Testing
Our PCI Penetration Testing services ensure that you meet the necessary compliance requirements, avoiding costly fines and potential reputational damage. We help you navigate the complexities of PCI DSS standards, providing clear guidance and support throughout the compliance process.
Beyond compliance, there are other benefits associated with regular penetration testing.
Overall Cybersecurity Enhancement
It’s crucial that businesses stay ahead of ever-evolving and escalating cyber threats. Penetration testing, including PCI penetration testing, helps you proactively detect and address security issues that could be exploited and reduce the likelihood of a data breach.
Risk Mitigation
Regular pentests help identify vulnerabilities that may be overlooked during routine security assessments. By simulating real-world attacks, we can pinpoint security gaps and provide recommendations to strengthen your defenses which in turn helps you reduce risk.
Market Trust
Achieving and maintaining PCI DSS compliance demonstrates your commitment to securing sensitive payment card data—which helps you build and maintain the trust of your customers, partners, and stakeholders. Enhanced market trust leads to stronger customer relationships, loyalty, and a positive brand reputation.
Your Trusted Partner
We’ve helped organizations understand IT and cybersecurity risks for over two decades.
Drummond’s Qualified Security Assessors (QSA) work with your organization to understand your cardholder data environment, determine the scope of the assessment, and select samples. Once any post-assessment deficiencies are remedied, Drummond’s team of experts can deliver a Report on Compliance (ROC) and Attestation of Compliance (AOC).
As a PCI QSA and cybersecurity expert, our extensive multi-stakeholder cybersecurity, threat identification, and risk assessment services offer a greater level of assurance.
Finance-Specific Pentesting, to Protect Your Transactional Data
The Drummond team is here to help you meet your Penetration testing requirements and help you determine how attackers might gain unauthorized access to assets that affect the fundamental security of your systems, files, logs, and cardholder data. Our testing also confirms that the applicable controls required by PCI DSS – including scope, vulnerability management, methodology, and segmentation – are effectively implemented.
To ensure comprehensive security evaluation, we offer three distinct types of penetration tests:
Black-Box Assessment
In a black-box assessment, our testers simulate an external hacking attempt with no prior knowledge of your network or applications. This approach mimics a real-world attack, providing insights into how a potential intruder could penetrate your defenses from an outsider’s perspective.
White-Box Assessment
In a white-box assessment, you provide our testers with full and complete details of your network and applications. This includes architecture diagrams, source code, and configuration files. With this information, our testers can conduct a thorough examination of your systems, identifying vulnerabilities that might be missed in a black-box assessment. This method is ideal for uncovering deep-seated security issues.
Grey-Box Assessment
A grey-box assessment strikes a balance between black-box and white-box testing. You provide our testers with partial details of the target system, such as network infrastructure, credentials, and other relevant information. This approach allows our testers to perform a focused and efficient evaluation, combining the perspectives of both external and internal threats.
