One-time security testing
Opting for one-time IT security testing, you get impartial security evaluation without vendor lock-in.
This cooperation approach may be helpful in forming an opinion on the vendor and making a decision regarding further cooperation with them.
Managed security testing
With this option, you can stay constantly aware of occurring security vulnerabilities.
After gathering the details on your IT infrastructure during the first security testing project, we perform end-to-end IT infrastructure security assessments on a regular basis, including software and application security testing services. As we get familiar with your IT infrastructure, our regular security testing activities will be even more cost- and time-effective.
Regardless of the cooperation model you choose, ScienceSoft provides:
- Detailed vulnerabilities report for your IT and information security professionals.
- Executive summary report for your business team.
The reports comprise recommendations (that differ in the number of provided details) on how to mitigate the existing security vulnerabilities and enhance your overall cybersecurity.
Upon the completion of security tests, we got comprehensive reports with the detailed information on the detected critical and non-critical security weaknesses and recommended measures to mitigate them. After we carried out the remediation of critical vulnerabilities, ScienceSoft’s security engineers retested the protection of our web application again to confirm its high security level and delivered an updated final report to us.
