As cybersecurity threats continue to escalate across industries, CyberNX, one of India’s leading cybersecurity companies, has announced the expansion of its penetration testing services to help organizations uncover vulnerabilities before attackers exploit them. With this strategic move, CyberNX aims to strengthen digital defenses across sectors like finance, healthcare, retail, and education—where data protection is critical.
The announcement comes at a time when businesses are facing a sharp rise in ransomware attacks, data breaches, and supply chain vulnerabilities. CyberNX’s new services offer real-world attack simulations, giving enterprises a proactive method to identify and fix weak points in their security infrastructure.
Real-World Cyber Attacks Need Realistic Security Testing
According to a report by IBM Security, the average cost of a data breach in India reached INR 17.9 crore in 2023—a figure that continues to climb. This trend highlights a critical need for security measures that go beyond antivirus tools and firewalls.
Penetration Testing (also known as ethical hacking) is a proven method to assess an organization’s true cybersecurity posture. It involves simulated cyberattacks performed by certified professionals who replicate the tactics used by real attackers.
“With the rise in targeted and sophisticated cyber threats, organizations can’t afford to guess if their systems are secure. Our penetration testing services give them clarity—identifying exploitable weaknesses before hackers find them,” said a senior cybersecurity consultant at CyberNX.
What Included in CyberNX’s Penetration Testing Services?
CyberNX updated penetration testing offering includes a comprehensive suite of assessments, specifically designed for modern IT environments:
-
Web & Mobile Application Testing: Detection of flaws like SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), and insecure APIs.
-
Network Security Testing: Identifies risks in both internal and external network configurations.
-
Cloud Infrastructure Testing: Assesses environments on AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud for misconfigurations and access risks.
-
Wireless Network Assessment: Discovers rogue access points and weak encryption protocols.
-
Social Engineering Simulation: Tests employee awareness through simulated phishing and vishing campaigns.
-
IoT and Smart Device Testing: Examines vulnerabilities in connected devices and communication protocols.
Each test is tailored to the client’s business environment, with manual and automated techniques to ensure thorough coverage.
A Growing Need for Regulatory Compliance
With increased focus on data privacy laws such as the Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act in India, GDPR, and sector-specific mandates like RBI cybersecurity guidelines, organizations must demonstrate that they have strong security practices in place.
CyberNX's penetration testing services are designed to help organizations meet regulatory compliance by providing detailed reports, including:
-
Risk scores and severity levels
-
Technical descriptions of vulnerabilities
-
Real-world impact demonstrations
-
Remediation recommendations
-
Retesting options post-fix
“Our clients don’t just need to secure their systems—they need to prove that they’ve done so. Our reports are compliance-ready, and designed to support audits, certification efforts, and executive decision-making,” said a CyberNX spokesperson.
Who Should Consider Penetration Testing?
CyberNX recommends penetration testing for any organization that:
-
Stores or processes sensitive customer data
-
Hosts public-facing web or mobile applications
-
Uses cloud-based services or infrastructure
-
Has remote employees accessing corporate systems
-
Is subject to regulatory compliance or third-party vendor assessments
-
Wants to validate its incident response capabilities
Even companies with mature security teams are encouraged to conduct regular third-party assessments to uncover blind spots and validate controls.
CyberNX’s Vision for Cybersecurity in India
With over a decade of industry experience and a growing client base across sectors, CyberNX continues to invest in strengthening India’s cybersecurity posture. The company also provides services like Managed Detection & Response (MDR), Threat Hunting, Cloud Security, and Virtual CISO consulting, making it a full-spectrum security partner.
“Our goal is not just to test, but to educate and empower our clients to stay ahead of the curve,” added the CyberNX consultant.
