FAQ

What is continuous penetration testing?

Continuous penetration testing combines vulnerability scanning and manual techniques to identify potential vulnerabilities in an organization's systems, networks, and applications. It is a proactive approach that involves conducting tests on an ongoing basis, rather than waiting for an annual, point-in-time assessment.

What are the benefits of continuous penetration testing?

The ongoing nature of continuous pen testing means that you can respond faster to potential security threats and minimize the risk of a security breach. This approach to security testing is particularly important in today's rapidly evolving threat landscape, where new vulnerabilities are constantly being discovered and exploited by attackers.

As your vulnerabilities will be reviewed by experienced professionals, you will also benefit from the removal of false positives and further analysis where necessary. This saves you time by allowing you to focus on the security issues that matter most, and gives you the best possible understanding of the real risks to your organization.

What is Intruder’s Rapid Response?

Intruder’s Rapid Response is manually carried out by our security team to check for the latest critical weaknesses hitting the news, including some that our scanners don't have checks for yet or ones that are better detected by a person.

When a threat is identified, we'll scan your systems and notify you if we suspect that any could be affected. We will also send you an advisory with further details and recommendations.

How does Intruder’s Continuous Network Scanning work?

Intruder continuously monitors your network, giving you peace of mind and ensuring your network view is always accurate. As soon as you add a target to the platform, Intruder will initiate the first scan. Once that scan is complete, subsequent scans will be automatically scheduled at regular intervals.

What scanning engine does Intruder use?

Our Vanguard plan is built upon Tenable Nessus – a commercial-grade scanning engine, used by large organizations and international Government bodies. This solution caters to those with a vast number of systems exposed to the internet; but it doesn’t stop at just the external perimeter, it covers internal systems and lots of enterprise software too.
