Network Pentest

A network pentest walks a target through Cybrium's reconnaissance, scanning, and gaining access phases. It discovers live assets, fingerprints services, and flags vulnerabilities that are reachable over the wire.

What it discovers

  • Live hosts, subdomains, and related infrastructure picked up during reconnaissance.
  • Open ports and services with protocol and version fingerprinting.
  • Known CVEs and exposures tied to each service, enriched with EPSS and exploitability hints.
  • Weak credentials or misconfigured services surfaced during the optional gaining-access phase.

When to use it

Use a network pentest before opening a new environment to the internet, after every significant infrastructure change, or on a recurring schedule for any asset that faces the public internet.

Requires authorisation

Any scan against a target you do not own requires a signed consent form and a live target-ownership check before the scan leaves the queue.

Launch from the chat bar

  1. Open a workspace and type a natural-language request such as pentest 10.0.4.0/24 or scan example.com.
  2. Cybrium classifies the intent as a network pentest and prompts for authorisation if the target is new.
  3. Confirm the authorisation dialog. The scan enters the queue and the phase tracker switches to the Reconnaissance phase.

Launch from the dedicated UI

  1. Go to Scans -> New Scan -> Network.
  2. Enter one or more targets (host, CIDR, or domain), pick a scan profile (Quick, Standard, Deep), and choose whether to allow the gaining-access phase.
  3. Click Start scan.

What findings look like

Each finding shows the affected asset, service, CVSS severity, a plain-language description, and a remediation block. Findings tagged exploitable include a replay payload and chain context so you can see why the finding matters in your environment.

Where results appear

  • Live in the Topology tab as nodes and edges are discovered.
  • In the Findings tab, grouped by asset and severity.
  • In the Report tab once the scan completes, with an executive summary and a technical appendix.
