What Is Network Penetration Testing?

Penetration testing (or “pen testing”) is a simulated cyberattack performed by ethical hackers. We safely attempt to breach your network, just like a real attacker would, to expose weak points in your:

Firewalls and VPNs

Internal devices and servers

Cloud-based platforms

User accounts and permissions

It’s a critical step for businesses that take cybersecurity seriously—and essential for meeting compliance requirements like HIPAA, PCI, and NIST.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is network penetration testing, and why do I need it?
Network penetration testing (or “pen testing”) is a simulated cyberattack performed by ethical hackers to identify vulnerabilities in your IT systems. It helps you understand how a real attacker could break in – and gives you a chance to fix those weaknesses before they’re exploited. Businesses in Louisville use penetration testing to meet compliance requirements, qualify for cyber insurance, or simply improve their overall security posture.
How much does a penetration test cost?
Costs vary depending on the size and complexity of your environment. A basic external-only test from our third-party partner for a small office network may cost less than $5,000, while a comprehensive internal + external test with multiple locations will cost more. We’ll scope your test during a quick consultation so you only pay for what you need.
How long does a penetration test take?
Most tests take 2-5 business days from start to final report. Smaller environments in Louisville may be completed in just a couple of days, while larger or more complex networks take longer. We’ll provide a detailed timeline before we begin.
Will a penetration test disrupt my business operations?
No – our tests are designed to be safe and non-disruptive. We’ll coordinate with your team, schedule testing during off-hours if needed, and avoid actions that could interrupt business-critical services.
What’s the difference between a vulnerability scan and a penetration test?
A vulnerability scan is automated and looks for known issues. A penetration test is manual and strategic – it simulates how a real hacker would exploit those vulnerabilities to gain access, escalate privileges, and move laterally through your network. We use both, but the human-led testing is what truly identifies risk.
What types of businesses in Louisville do you work with?

We work with a wide range of industries including:

  • Healthcare providers (HIPAA compliance)
  • Manufacturers with OT/IT integration
  • Financial institutions
  • Schools and public agencies
  • Small businesses concerned about ransomware and data breaches

If your organization relies on technology to operate, we can help secure it.

Do you offer penetration testing for cloud environments like Microsoft 365 or Azure?
Yes. In addition to traditional on-premise network testing, we also offer penetration testing and configuration reviews for cloud platforms, including Microsoft 365, Azure, and hybrid environments commonly used by Louisville-area businesses.
Can you help us fix the issues you find?
Absolutely! We don’t just drop off a report and walk away. Our team can help your internal IT staff or MSP address vulnerabilities—or we can handle the remediation for you, depending on your needs.
How often should we do penetration testing?
Industry best practices recommend at least once per year, or whenever you make major changes to your network (like adding locations, launching new apps, or migrating to the cloud). Some compliance frameworks require more frequent testing.
