Regular penetration tests by companies show customers that they care about their security and can increase their reliability.
Penetration tests can increase the security awareness of an organization’s employees. The test results can help them to better understand security risks and take appropriate security measures.
Penetration tests are used to uncover vulnerabilities in a computer system or network.
Penetration tests
Our expert testers use advanced techniques to thoroughly examine your systems, identifying potential vulnerabilities that malicious actors could exploit. We simulate real-world attack scenarios to uncover hidden weaknesses in your network, applications, and infrastructure before hackers do.
In economically strong regions such as Stuttgart, Ludwigsburg, Frankfurt, Mannheim, Karlsruhe, Heidelberg, Freiburg, Nuremberg, and Munich, the demand for professional penetration testing (pentests) is increasing to ensure IT security at the highest level. Companies rely on Darksn as an experienced partner for thorough vulnerability assessments and attack simulations – targeted, GDPR-compliant, and practical.
Our security teams use tools like Metasploit Framework, Cobalt Strike, and Core Impact to perform realistic attack scenarios – either automated or manual. These tools enable testing of exploits, payloads, post-exploitation, and lateral movement – for a practical evaluation of your IT infrastructure.
For automated security assessments, we rely on leading vulnerability scanners such as Nessus, OpenVAS, and Qualys. These tools analyze networks, systems, and applications for known vulnerabilities – ideal for preparing and validating manual penetration tests.
We test web-based systems using Burp Suite Professional and the open-source tool OWASP ZAP. Both solutions allow precise analysis of security issues like SQL injection, XSS, or session hijacking – complemented by tools like Nikto for web server scans.
Using Hydra, John the Ripper, and Hashcat, we test the robustness of your authentication mechanisms through brute-force, dictionary, and hybrid attacks. Especially in Microsoft Active Directory environments, we use tools like Mimikatz and Responder to collect and analyze credentials.
With tools such as Nmap, Wireshark, Ettercap, Netcat, and Socat, we perform detailed network scans, protocol analysis, ARP spoofing, and port mapping. These technologies are essential for detecting hidden services and potential attack vectors.
Our advanced tests also include the Social Engineering Toolkit (SET) for phishing tests and Evilginx2 to simulate attacks against two-factor authentication systems. This way, we evaluate not only technology but also user awareness.
All tests are documented using Dradis and Faraday to create consistent, traceable reports. These platforms help systematically track vulnerabilities, monitor progress, and provide technical and management reports.
