Penetration Testing Automation: The Key to Streamlining Your Cybersecurity
Automate the security testing for all you needs
Penetration Testing Automation
As the digital landscape continues to evolve, so too do the threats that organizations face. One of the most effective ways to protect against these threats is through penetration testing, which simulates a cyber attack on your systems to identify vulnerabilities and weaknesses. However, traditional penetration testing can be time-consuming and costly, which is why many organizations are turning to penetration testing automation to streamline their cybersecurity efforts.
At Cyber Legion, we understand the importance of staying ahead of the curve when it comes to cybersecurity. That’s why we offer a pay-as-you-go service for various security testing, including cloud platforms like AWS, Azure, and GCP, as well as containerization applications on Kubernetes and Docker. By automating the penetration testing process, we are able to provide our clients with a more efficient and cost-effective solution to identifying and mitigating vulnerabilities in their systems.
Penetration Testing Pay-as-you-go
Penetration testing automation allows organizations to schedule regular, automated tests of their systems, which can help identify vulnerabilities in a more timely and consistent manner. This is especially important for organizations that use cloud services, as these systems are constantly changing and evolving, making it difficult to keep up with potential vulnerabilities.
Additionally, automation allows for more comprehensive testing, as it is able to scan all parts of a system, including applications, networks, and devices. This ensures that no vulnerabilities are left undetected, which can help organizations stay ahead of potential threats.
At Cyber Legion, we are committed to providing our clients with the best possible security solutions. Our pay-as-you-go service allows organizations to easily and affordably access the latest and most effective tools to keep their systems safe. By automating the penetration testing process, we can help organizations identify and mitigate vulnerabilities in a more efficient and cost-effective way.

Frequently Asked Questions – FAQ’s
What do I need to get started?
To order our pay-as-you-go Built-in Security Test & Report service, you must register on the Cyber Legion client portal for free, sign the NDA and the consultancy service agreement, and submit and pay for the service using the Work Request Form.
Once these steps are completed and we have your approval for the targets within the scope of the scan/test, we can schedule the service according to your specified time frame.
What is a target?
A target is a system that we can scan/test using our tools.
e.g web app, application repository, mobile app, IP etc
What is a security scan?
Security scanning, or vulnerability scanning, can mean many different things, but it can be simply described as scanning the security of a website, web-based program, network, or file system for either vulnerabilities or unwanted file changes.
What is Drupal Security Test?
A Drupal Security Test is a process of identifying and evaluating security vulnerabilities and risks in a website or web application built using the Drupal content management system. It includes a series of checks and tests to ensure that the website is protected against known security threats, such as hacking, injection attacks, and unauthorized access to sensitive data. The test may include reviewing the website’s code, configurations, and security settings, as well as performing simulated attacks to identify vulnerabilities. The goal of a Drupal Security Test is to ensure that the website is secure and that any identified issues are addressed promptly.

What is the difference between an Authenticated and an Unauthenticated assessment?
Unauthenticated Scan
This tests the hosts in scope for any identified vulnerabilities in software versions or configuration issues on exposed services. It does not login to the system, therefore does not run more detailed checks that would only be possible when using local administrative user credentials.
Authenticated Scan
This tests the hosts in scope for any identified vulnerabilities in software versions or configuration issues, by logging into the host as an administrative user. This performs a much more detailed review and covers patch checking and configuration issues for the unexposed services on the host. If you wished to check all patching levels of systems across your network, an authenticated test would be the best option.
The Scanner is able to scan the target web application as an authenticated user. You can provide us with authentication credentials in several ways:
- User/Password Authentication: When this option is chosen, the scanner will first try to authenticate to the provided login URL and obtain a valid session cookie. This cookie will be used with all the HTTP requests done to the server, performing an authenticated scan. You have the option to check if the authentication was successful before actually starting the scan.
- Cookie Authentication: With this option you can specify an already valid session cookie (or multiple cookies) that will be sent with each HTTP request to the server. You have to first get the session cookie by manually logging into your target application with a web browser and transferring the cookie from the browser to the scanner (copy/paste).
- Headers Authentication: This option allows you to specify custom HTTP headers that will be sent with each request to the target application. These can be used for authentication (e.g. JWT tokens, Basic Authentication, etc.) or for other specific application functionality.
What qualifications does the security testing team possess?
Our specialized team of security professionals hold industry qualifications such as CREST, OSCP, CISSP, CISM, CEH and Cloud security certification such as AWS, azure, GCP etc.
