Penetration Testing & Vulnerability Scanning
Find Weaknesses Before Hackers Do
Why Gugel–Tech
Cybercriminals don’t wait — they look for the easiest way in. Gugel-Tech’s Pen Testing and Vulnerability Scanning services simulate real-world attacks to expose hidden flaws in your systems, networks, and software — so you can fix them before they become a problem.
Whether you’re protecting customer data, staying compliant, or improving your security posture, we help you identify, prioritize, and resolve risks fast.
What We Do
- External and internal penetration testing
- Full vulnerability scans of your systems and networks
- Testing for web applications, endpoints, and firewalls
- Identification of misconfigurations and open ports
- Prioritized risk reports with recommended remediation
- Retesting to confirm security improvements
- Ongoing scanning for new threats
Why It Matters
- Most breaches happen due to known but unpatched vulnerabilities
- Compliance frameworks like HIPAA, PCI, and NIST require regular security testing
- Pen testing reveals how far an attacker could go inside your network
- Vulnerability scanning tracks changes, gaps, and evolving risks over time
- Peace of mind starts with knowing your weakest points — and fixing them
Penetration Testing (Pen Testing)
A pen test is a simulated cyberattack carried out by a security expert. The goal is to find and exploit vulnerabilities, just like a real hacker would, to determine how far an attacker could go if they gained access to your systems.
What It Provides:
- Real-world insight into how your defenses hold up under attack
- Discovery of chained vulnerabilities that automated tools might miss
- A clear picture of what data could be accessed, altered, or stolen
- Compliance with frameworks like HIPAA, PCI DSS, and ISO 27001
Best For:
- Annual security reviews
- Businesses under compliance requirements
- Companies concerned about active threat actors
- Organizations undergoing mergers or infrastructure changes
Vulnerability Scanning
A vulnerability scan uses automated tools to identify known security flaws across your network, systems, and software. It doesn’t exploit those weaknesses — it detects them and flags what needs attention.
What It Provides:
- Regular detection of outdated software, unpatched systems, and weak settings
- Low-impact scanning that can run weekly or monthly
- Risk scores and prioritization
- Broad visibility across your IT environment
Best For:
- Ongoing network health checks
- Patch management strategies
- Smaller businesses just starting with cybersecurity
- Organizations maintaining continuous compliance posture
Why Most Businesses Benefit from Both
Think of vulnerability scans as your regular checkups, and pen testing as the in-depth exam. When combined, they give you both a wide-angle and deep-dive view of your security posture.
Gugel-Tech helps you choose the right approach for your risk level, industry, and business goals — or combines both into a custom solution.
