SFUA’s Physical penetration test specialists create simulated attacks that mimic criminals' actions to gain unauthorized access to sensitive equipment, data centers, or sensitive information. Some tested barriers might include doors and locks, fences, intrusion alarms, or even security guards and other employees. Our security consultant/agent may leverage social engineering techniques to convince well-intentioned employees to provide building access that they should not have. They might even gain access to a meeting room and pick up credentials, access badges, or information left unattended.
Our security consultants know precisely how criminals might access computer systems and buildings. A security consultant may rely upon any or all these methods to gain access to the specified locations during a physical penetration test and identify damage that could be done once that access is gained.
