Cyber Security
Providing Cyber-Immunity to Organizations Globally
A smarter way to secure a product is to make the product integrity and security a key factor during both design and development phases. Apart from the complete entities like web applications and devices, we assist our clients in testing the security of their proprietary protocols over a wired link, such as Ethernet, as well as the security of custom protocols over a wireless channel.
A brief overview of our service offering in this category includes.
Vulnerability Assessment
At CPS, we possess the expertise to examine all kinds of potential targets and attack vectors. We perform thorough vulnerability assessments of the targets by employing both manual and automated tool-based approaches. The combination of these techniques helps us to quickly identify the vulnerabilities in the underlying operating system, installed components, running applications, application misconfigurations, communication protocols and weak login credentials.
Web Application Security Testing
CPS cybersecurity team utilizes a blend of manual and automated testing tools and processes to provide complete coverage in web application security testing. Our testing approach is closely tied with the latest OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities as listed below:
- Broken Access Control
- Cryptographic Failures
- Injection
- Insecure Design
- Security Misconfiguration
- Vlinerable and Outdated Components
- Identification and Authentication Failures
- Software and Data Integrity Failures
- Secure Logging and Monitoring Failures
- Server-Side Request Forgery
Penetration Testing
During Penetration Testing, the vulnerabilities or security holes found during vulnerability analysis are actively exploited to gain access to the system, escalate privileges, and cause damage, etc. Penetration Testing provides a proof-of-concept about the extent of damage that will be caused, if a particular vulnerability is exploited. It is useful for business and companies that believes their defenses are strong and they want to test that assertion. We, at CPS, perform penetration testing on the target with the mindset of a motivated hacker.
Desktop Application Security Testing
CPS cybersecurity team specializes in techniques to bypass authentication and authorization checks. We use our knowledge to verify that an attacker has no way to access the data and functionality not intended for them. Furthermore, we thoroughly analyze the strength of checks that are implemented to prevent the information from being extracted from the files used by the application. We also check if there is any way to evade encryption or file integrity protection that may be placed on the configuration files used by the desktop application.
Security Awareness Training
According to online statistics, about 85% of the breaches involved a human element, while only 3% involved vulnerability exploitation. This shows how important it is for companies to provide their employees with proper training in security hygiene, such as phishing awareness, to reduce the likelihood of a data breach affecting their organization. Our cybersecurity experts and consultants can provide on-demand security training tailored to your employees at any level, from higher management to entry-level staff. Training can be customized to meet the needs of specific organizations and cover certain aspects in further detail depending on their target audience.
Risk Analysis
A security risk assessment identifies, assesses, and implements key security controls in applications and/or organizations. A typical Risk Assessment exercise involves five steps, i.e. Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond, and Recover (these are further divided into sub-categories and requirements). We can assist the management in making informed resource allocation, tooling, and security control implementation decisions. Thus, conducting an assessment is an integral part of an organization’s risk management process.
IOT Security
The number of connected IoT devices will reach 75 billion by 2025, which is a 300% increase as compared to the statistics of 2019. IoT is the future and everything will continue to become more connected through technology. However, IoT devices are inherently vulnerable and poorly protected, making them attractive targets to threat acts. We, atCPS, can help our clients mitigate the risk by doing in-depth analysis of their:
- Network of connected devices
- Communication protocols
- Embedded firmware
- Security configuration
