What It Solves:

Exposes real-world attack paths hackers could use to move laterally and reach critical assets.
Identifies misconfigurations, weak controls, and insecure defaults that scanners often miss.
⁠Reduces uncertainty for leadership by turning “Are we secure?” into concrete, evidence-based answers.
Supports compliance and customer confidence by proving you test and harden your environment.

What We Provide:

Attacker-style penetration tests across networks, applications, cloud, and external perimeter.
Clear, prioritized reports that show findings by real-world risk and business impact.
Concrete remediation guidance with specific configuration changes, hardening steps, and playbook updates.
⁠Retesting to validate fixes and demonstrate measurable improvement over time.

Why It Matters

Testing your security posture reveals what needs to be fixed. Our expert team gives you clear insight and actionable steps to strengthen your defenses.

What is penetration testing?

Penetration testing is far more than vulnerability scanning and noisy reports. It simulates real world attacks using the same techniques hackers use to break into systems. Our team uncovers what those attackers would find and validates what can actually be exploited. The goal is to identify weaknesses before attackers do, giving you a clear picture of your true risk and a practical path to strengthen your security. We focus on real, exploitable issues, not theoretical findings.

Web Application
Penetration Testing

Evaluates your web applications for real world attack paths such as injection flaws, broken authentication, and logic issues that could allow unauthorized access or data exposure. Includes authenticated and unauthenticated testing as well as full API testing.

Client-side Application
Penetration Testing

Assesses desktop applications for weaknesses in business logic, data handling, privilege controls, and interactions with the underlying system. Includes macOS, Windows, and Linux applications.

External Network
Penetration Testing

Tests your public facing infrastructure from the perspective of an external attacker, identifying exploitable entry points such as vulnerable services, configuration issues, and exposed assets.

Network Segmentation
Penetration Testing

Validates whether your segmentation controls effectively prevent lateral movement and restrict access between network zones. Includes confirmation of non CDE to CDE isolation.

Internal Network
Penetration Testing

Simulates an attacker with internal access, such as a compromised workstation or rogue device, to identify privilege escalation paths, lateral movement opportunities, and internal vulnerabilities.

Mobile Application
Penetration Testing

Assesses mobile applications for security issues in authentication, data storage, network communication, and platform specific risks. Includes testing for both iOS and Android.

Cloud Technology
Testing

Evaluates cloud environments and services for misconfigurations, excessive permissions, exposed assets, and weaknesses in identity and access controls that attackers could exploit.

Expert Remediation Support

Penetration testing is only as effective as the action that follows. Forge16 provides clear, structured reports supported by screenshots and proof of concepts, which we also showcase in sample report images on this page. Our team is available 24/7 to assist with remediation, patching guidance, configuration improvements, and verification of your fixes through complimentary retesting. We work directly with your engineers to ensure vulnerabilities are addressed thoroughly and efficiently.
