Offensive Security · Network Pentest

Attackers don't stop at the perimeter.

PTES and NIST SP 800-115 aligned external and internal network penetration testing.

Perimeter and internal networks tell different stories. Solvin's network penetration tests follow PTES and NIST SP 800-115 — external attack surface enumeration, service exploitation, then internal post-exploitation, lateral movement and privilege escalation — to show what an attacker actually reaches, not just what a scanner finds.

/ Capabilities

What's in scope.

External surface testing

Attack surface discovery, service exploitation and validated vulnerability findings on internet-facing assets.

Internal network testing

Assumed-breach and full internal pentests with lateral movement, privilege escalation and domain compromise paths.

Active Directory testing

Kerberoasting, ASREPRoasting, ACL misconfigurations, delegation abuse and Tier-0 asset compromise paths.

Wireless & segmentation testing

802.1X, WPA3 assessment and firewall / VLAN segmentation validation.

Assumed-breach is the default.

The perimeter will be breached. We start most internal engagements from an assumed-breach position (foothold given) to focus time on what matters most: blast radius, lateral movement and privilege paths.

AD is where campaigns are won.

Active Directory misconfigurations remain the single most-exploited path in enterprises. We invest disproportionate testing time there.

Common questions.

External or internal first?

For most enterprises we start with external, then move to assumed-breach internal. Combining both in one engagement is common and cost-effective.

Will testing take services down?

We coordinate with your operations teams, avoid destructive tests by default, and keep an emergency stop channel open throughout. Denial-of-service testing is out of scope unless explicitly requested.
