Let’s face it—cyber threats are evolving fast. Hackers aren’t just working out of basements anymore. They’re using advanced tooling, automation, and now even artificial intelligence (AI). So the real question is— is your business ready for what’s coming next? At FORTBRIDGE , we believe AI in network penetration testing isn’t just a trend—it’s a necessity. If your business is online (and whose isn’t?), securing your network is more critical than ever. AI is already changing how we test and protect systems—and it’s only getting smarter. What Does AI Have to Do With Pentesting? Let’s break it down: ·       AI (Artificial Intelligence) is technology that learns from patterns and adapts over time. ·       Pentesting (Penetration Testing) is the practice of simulating cyberattacks to identify and fix weaknesses before real attackers exploit them. Now imagine combining the two. AI in Network Pentesting means your infrastructure is ...

Cyber threats are increasing every day, and businesses need robust security to stay protected. That’s where network penetration testing comes in—it helps organizations identify weaknesses before attackers do. But here’s the catch: pentesting also comes with legal risks and ethical challenges. If not conducted properly, it can lead to serious legal consequences. So, how can businesses stay compliant while ensuring their systems are secure? Let’s take a closer look. Understanding the Legal Risks in Network Pentesting Before testing any system, it’s essential to have proper authorization. Without the right approvals, even well-intentioned testing can land you in legal trouble. Key Legal Risks to Be Aware Of: ·       Unauthorized Testing is a Crime – Laws like the UK’s Computer Misuse Act make unauthorized access illegal. ·       GDPR and Data Protection – Handling personal data without proper consent may breach the General Data Protection...

  Web applications are an integral part of everyone, especially for business. We can see an increase in the reliance on web apps which can also bring some security risks. Web applications are prime targets for cybercriminals and attackers who are looking to disrupt services, exploit vulnerabilities, and steal sensitive data. To solve these risks, organizations must focus on the availing the service of Web application pentesting . This service helps in evaluating the effectiveness of systems, strategies, or defenses in terms of attacks or challenges. Wondering about the key benefits of web application pentesting for an organization? Don’t worry check here: Detection of potential risks   Web application penetration and Security Architecture allows businesses to detect errors, problems, and vulnerabilities in the network system. It is useful for the early detection in the development phase of the lifecycle. If you know what the error is, it becomes easy to apply the right solut...

  We are living in a digital age where smartphones seem to be part of us. Mobile phones are used for everything from banking to social networking, online shopping and also monitoring one’s health status. However, such convenience has its own problems. Cyber attackers might find easy targets in mobile apps hence making it important to keep them safe. At FORTBRIDGE we conduct Mobile Application Pentesting which is an extremely intensive procedure intended to discover weaknesses in your mobile applications ahead of adversaries who may wish to exploit them. Below is our approach on how we achieve this: In-depth analysis : A thorough understanding of your app’s structure, including possible weaknesses is first. Code review: The source code is closely examined by our professionals to detect security loopholes that could be used against it. Real-world attack simulation : Cyber-crimes mimic real attacks on your app in order to investigate its performance under stressful circumstances. Ex...

  Network Penetration Testing, simply known as Network Pentesting is like testing for your network’s defense mechanisms; think of it as a simulated cyber attack conducted by security experts in search of, and then rectifying any possible gaps before hackers can misuse them. Why Network Penetration Testing Matters Find The Weaknesses : Finding the weaknesses or vulnerabilities which exist within a network is important in protecting it from attack. Cybercriminals could take advantage of these if they are not corrected.  Prevent Breach of Data : The early fixing of these weaknesses lowers the probability of data breaches, as well as protecting confidential data.  Checking for Compliance and Assurance : When done often, penetration tests help meet the requirements in industries and give investors trust in the ways used to secure their information. How FORTBRIDGE Does It At FORTBRIDGE , ethical hackers on our team use both automated tools and hands-on methods to completely te...

  Pentesting, or penetration testing, is the art of testing up security of applications. By simulating a cyber-attack, pentesters can evaluate if certain (combination of) vulnerabilities are present and could be exploited by malicious people. This blog post will cover mobile application pentesting, web application pentesting & API pentesting. Mobile Application Pentesting Any statement you see on the news or online is up for question. Mobile application pentesting focuses on identifying vulnerabilities specific to mobile apps, whether they are hosted on iOS or Android platforms. This includes the app's code, backend services, and communication protocols. Key Areas of Focus Authentication and Authorization: Ensuring that user credentials are securely managed and that unauthorized access is prevented. Data Storage and Transmission: Check for secure data storage practices and encryption during data transmission to safeguard sensitive details. Platform-Specific Vulnerabilities: Id...
