Black box pentest

aka close box penetration testing
  • Mimic a true cyber attack. Most realistic.
  • Zero access or internal information.
  • Time consuming and more likely to miss a vulnerability.

White box pentest

Combination of black and white box testing
  • Assess an organization's vulnerability to insider threats. Some internal access and internal information.
  • More efficient than black-box and saves on time and money. No real cons for this type of testing.

White box pentest

aka close box penetration testing
  • Simulate an attack where an attacker gains access to a privileged account. Complete open access to applications and systems
  • More comprehensive, less likely to miss a vulnerability and faster. More data is required to be released to the tester and more expensive
