VAPTs, or Vulnerability Assessments and Penetration Testing, are the ultimate security check-ups for your digital infrastructure. But before any ethical hacker dives in with their tools, there’s a crucial first step: cybersecurity reconnaissance.
The shadowy world of malware is constantly evolving, with new threats emerging alongside the persistence of old ones. One such persistent foe is the Bifrost Trojan, a backdoor Trojan horse that’s been around for over two decades, targeting Windows systems since the 90s and recently making a resurgence with variants aimed at Linux.
As CEOs in the automotive industry, we understand data’s critical role in every aspect of our operations, from design and development to manufacturing and after-sales service. This valuable information, however, is constantly under threat from cyberattacks. Breaches can disrupt production, damage our reputation, and lead to hefty fines and legal repercussions.
This is where TISAX (Trusted Information Security Assessment Exchange) comes in.
Software Testing: Makes sure the house is built correctly and works as planned (lights turn on, doors open, etc.). They check for bugs and defects like leaky faucets (improper functionality) or uneven floors (bad user experience).
Penetration Testing: Tries to break into the house like a thief (ethical hacker) to find any weak spots (vulnerabilities) that real criminals could exploit. They might discover unlocked windows (security flaws) or weak walls (exploitable vulnerabilities).
