Raxis Strike

Penetration Testing Service

Raxis Strike offers traditional penetration testing as a powerful solution to uncover hidden vulnerabilities in your website through comprehensive, manual assessments conducted by our expert team. Our approach simulates real-world attack scenarios, providing in-depth insights and actionable recommendations to strengthen your security posture and ensure compliance with industry regulations.

Our Proven Approach to Penetration Testing Services

For over a decade, Raxis has been a trusted leader in cybersecurity testing, delivering top-tier penetration testing services through our renowned Raxis Strike offering. As a premier penetration testing company, we serve organizations of all sizes and industries, leveraging the industry-standard MITRE ATT&CK framework to provide a structured, effective approach. Our expert-driven process identifies and mitigates vulnerabilities with precision, ensuring your business benefits from the best penetration testing services available.

Scoping: Tailoring the Engagement to Your Needs

Every organization faces unique security challenges, so we begin by working closely with you to define the scope of the penetration test. This includes identifying the systems, applications, or networks to be tested and setting clear objectives for the engagement. Whether you need an external network test, internal system evaluation, or application-specific assessment, we tailor our testing scenarios to align with your specific needs and industry requirements.

Vulnerability Identification: Uncovering Security Weaknesses

Once the scope is defined, our expert penetration testers begin identifying vulnerabilities within your systems. Using a combination of manual techniques and advanced tools, we analyze your environment for weaknesses such as misconfigurations, outdated software, insecure protocols, or exploitable code. Unlike automated scans that often miss complex issues, our manual testing ensures a thorough assessment of even the most intricate systems.

Attack Simulation: Mimicking Real-World Threats

To provide a realistic evaluation of your security defenses, we simulate real-world cyberattacks on your systems. Our team employs the same tools and techniques used by malicious hackers to test your organization’s ability to detect and respond to threats. These simulations include testing for common attack vectors such as phishing attempts, privilege escalation, lateral movement, and data exfiltration.

Exploitation: Demonstrating Real-World Impact

Within the parameters defined during scoping, we take testing a step further by safely exploiting identified vulnerabilities. This controlled exploitation demonstrates how attackers could leverage weaknesses to gain unauthorized access or exfiltrate sensitive data. By showcasing the potential impact of these vulnerabilities through detailed proof-of-concept scenarios, we help you understand their severity and prioritize remediation efforts effectively.

Reporting: Delivering Actionable Insights

At the conclusion of testing, you receive a comprehensive report detailing all findings from the engagement. This report includes a prioritized list of vulnerabilities categorized by severity level (e.g., critical, high, medium), along with their associated risks and potential business impact. Each finding is accompanied by proof-of-concept exploits and clear remediation recommendations tailored to your technical team’s needs. Additionally, we provide a detailed storyboard that illustrates how an attacker could exploit multiple vulnerabilities in sequence.

Debrief: Collaborative Review of Findings

Our process doesn’t end with delivering a report—we believe in empowering our clients with knowledge. During the debrief session, our experts walk you through the results of the penetration test, answering any questions you may have and providing guidance on addressing vulnerabilities effectively. This collaborative review ensures that your team fully understands the findings and next steps for remediation.

Retest: Validating Remediation Efforts

If applicable, we offer retesting services to validate that all identified vulnerabilities have been successfully remediated. During this phase, we re-evaluate previously flagged issues to ensure they are no longer exploitable and confirm that no new risks have been introduced during remediation efforts.

Proactive Risk Identification

Raxis Strike enables organizations to uncover hidden vulnerabilities before attackers can exploit them. By leveraging real-world hacking techniques and manual testing, it identifies critical flaws that automated tools often miss, such as business logic errors, unconfigured systems, and complex security gaps.

Realistic Attack Simulations

Unlike traditional vulnerability scans, Raxis Strike employs ethical hackers who simulate sophisticated cyberattacks using actual hacker-created exploits. These simulations provide invaluable insights into how attackers could compromise systems, escalate privileges, and exfiltrate sensitive data.

Tailored Testing for Unique Needs

Every organization has unique security challenges based on its infrastructure, industry, and compliance requirements. Raxis Strike customizes its penetration tests to align with the customer’s specific environment, ensuring maximum relevance and effectiveness. Whether testing external networks, APIs, mobile applications, or IoT devices, the service adapts to meet diverse technology landscapes.

Industry-Specific Expertise

Raxis Strike brings industry-specific knowledge to every engagement, efficiently targeting vulnerabilities that are unique to the customer’s sector. This expertise ensures compliance with regulatory standards such as PCI DSS, HIPAA, GDPR, and ISO 27001 while addressing sector-specific risks.

Actionable Reporting and Guidance

Customers receive a detailed report outlining all identified vulnerabilities, categorized by severity and accompanied by proof-of-concept exploits. The report also includes prioritized remediation recommendations tailored to the customer’s technical team. Additionally, Raxis provides a debrief session where experts walk through the findings and offer guidance on addressing vulnerabilities effectively.

Black Box, White Box, and Grey Box Penetration Testing

Raxis penetration testing services are designed to uncover vulnerabilities and strengthen your defenses against real-world cyber threats. As a trusted penetration testing company, we adapt our expert-led assessments to your unique needs using industry-standard methodologies: Black Box, White Box, and Grey Box testing. Each approach provides a distinct perspective, ensuring comprehensive coverage—whether we’re simulating an external hacker or diving deep into your systems with your team’s collaboration

Black Box Penetration Testing

Our Black Box penetration testing services replicate the tactics of an external attacker with no prior knowledge of your systems. Raxis ethical hackers focus on your public-facing assets—web applications, networks, APIs, and more—without access to internal code or architecture. This method exposes weaknesses in your perimeter defenses, revealing risks that automated tools often overlook. It’s an ideal choice for organizations seeking to test their external security posture with expert-driven penetration testing services.

Grey Box Penetration Testing

Grey Box testing combines the best of both worlds, offering penetration testing services that blend limited system knowledge with external attack techniques. Raxis specialists might start with partial information—such as user credentials or network diagrams—to mimic a targeted breach, like a compromised vendor or employee. This hybrid method efficiently identifies vulnerabilities from misconfigurations and external exploits alike, providing a realistic assessment with practical remediation steps. It’s a versatile option for organizations seeking expert penetration testing services tailored to their specific risks.

White Box Penetration Testing

With White Box testing, Raxis offers penetration testing services that provide a thorough, insider’s view of your systems. Our certified experts—armed with full access to source code, configurations, and architecture—simulate advanced threats like insider attacks or breaches with stolen credentials. This detailed approach ensures no vulnerability goes unnoticed, making it perfect for businesses needing comprehensive cybersecurity testing for compliance with standards like PCI DSS, HIPAA, or SOC 2.
