Bithex NSA™ Penetration Testing, Security Assessments and Risk Assessment

Bithex NSA is a technical security assessment and penetration testing of information systems where Bithex consultants follow a detailed methodology to test for, and analyze, security aspects and vulnerabilities of information systems such as network servers and software solutions.

Vulnerability scanning is performed, software configuration errors are tested for, exploit code and methods are analyzed and executed. Firewall settings, VPN and IDS/IPS system settings are tested.

Compliance to standards and regulations and risk assessments

Today, many companies are required to fulfill standards and regulations on regular security assessments and vulnerability analysis of information system assets.

Bithex NSA security assessments are useful in such cases and can be used to test for several requirements mandated by standards such as ISO/IEC 27001, PCI DSS and other.

Sample requirements tested include controls against malicious code, information security of network services, password use, network access restriction, information leakage, documentation and control of technical vulnerabilities, annual security scans and penetration tests and more.
