Cresco Penetration Testing is a professional service offering that conducts simulated cyberattacks to identify vulnerabilities and security weaknesses in computer systems, networks, and applications. The service follows methodologies aligned with OWASP and OSSTMM industry standards. The penetration testing process includes defining scope and goals, gathering intelligence about target systems, conducting vulnerability assessments, exploiting identified vulnerabilities, and delivering detailed reports with remediation recommendations. The service combines manual testing techniques with automated tools to examine infrastructure components. Cresco offers three testing approaches: black-box testing (simulating external attacks with no prior system knowledge), grey-box testing (partial system knowledge), and white-box testing (complete access to system architecture and code). The service portfolio includes external penetration tests targeting online infrastructure like email, web applications, cloud resources, and VPNs; internal penetration tests simulating attacks on internal networks and systems; and application penetration tests focusing on web-based, mobile, or desktop applications. Testing evaluates aspects such as input validation, authentication, session management, business logic flaws, security misconfigurations, user access privileges, and potential for lateral movement within networks. The company conducts over 100 projects annually with more than 5000 penetration testing hours per year.
