Description 

Are vulnerabilities in your network compromising your PCI compliance?

Thousands of vulnerabilities can be present in an organization’s network for months before they are identified. Payment card environments are of particular interest to criminal hackers and organizations (but for very different reasons) and should be safeguarded by supporting compliance with the PCI DSS.

IT Governance USA’s PCI Penetration Test aims to assess your security systems, public-facing devices and systems, databases, and other systems that store, process, or transmit cardholder data in order to discover your vulnerabilities before cyber criminals do.

Our service will help you determine whether and how a malicious user could gain unauthorized access to assets that affect the fundamental security of your system, files, logs, and/or cardholder data, and confirm the controls required by the PCI DSS are in place and effective.

We will assess key areas of your network, such as:

  • If the environment is securely segmented
  • Whether your environment has been appropriately patched and configured, and suitably hardened
  • Whether there are weak protocols being used to transmit cardholder data
  • How secure your authentication process is
  • How secure your password authentication services are and what measures have been put in place to confirm a user’s identity
  • Weaknesses in SSL/TLS configurations
  • The robustness of your server configurations
  • Whether user access privileges and effective session management configurations are in place

At the end of the test, you will receive a comprehensive report broken down into:

 Executive summary

A high-level, non-technical summary of vulnerabilities identified and your business’s risks, which will be based on the CVSS (Common Vulnerability Scoring System).

 Testing details

A detailed description of the methodologies followed, the scope of testing, and applicable PCI DSS requirements.

 Vulnerability findings

Overview, consultant’s commentary, and detailed descriptions of each technical vulnerability identified, with remediation advice.


Methodology

This test will be performed using IT Governance USA’s proprietary security testing methodology, which is closely aligned with the SANS, OSSTMM (Open Source Security Testing Methodology Manual), and OWASP (Open Web Application Security Project) methodologies. It supports compliance with requirement 11.4 of the PCI DSS.


Who is this service for?

This service is suitable for organizations that are obligated to comply with the requirements of the PCI DSS.
