Secure Your Business from Internal Attacks | Social Engineering VAPT Services

Social Engineering in VAPT

Ethical hackers or security professionals perform social engineering in Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing (VAPT) to simulate real-world attacks and assess an organisation's susceptibility to social engineering techniques. The goal is to identify vulnerabilities in your organisation's security posture and provide recommendations for improvement.

Conducting social engineering assessments can be a proactive step that your organisation can take to protect its systems, networks, and sensitive information from evolving threats.

RankSecure’s complete social engineering services can help you identify vulnerabilities in your organisation’s security structure, raise cybersecurity awareness, mitigate risks, comply with regulations, and enhance incident response capabilities.

Our VAPT experts are skilled at providing a variety of social engineering assessments, including:

Phishing & Vishing Assessments

These assessments involve simulating phishing attacks to test your employees' ability to recognise and respond to malicious emails. This includes sending fake emails or impersonating a legitimate caller, such as requests for login credentials, or manipulating the target into performing certain actions over the phone.
Phishing & Vishing assessments measure how many employees fall for these attempts and provides insights into areas for improvement.

Tailgating Assessments

This form of social engineering assessment evaluates an organisation's physical security controls by testing employees' compliance with access control measures. Our expert VAPT testers attempt to gain unauthorised access to restricted areas by following an authorised person through secure entry points without proper authentication. This assessment helps identify weaknesses in physical security practises.

Baiting Assessments

Baiting assessments involve leaving physical devices, such as USB drives or CDs, in strategic locations within an organisation's premises. These devices are designed to appear enticing or valuable to employees. If an employee picks up the device and connects it to their computer, it may trigger a malicious action or compromise their system. This assessment measures your employees' adherence to policies regarding the handling of unknown devices.

Protect your organisation from internal threats & attacks with RankSecure

Social engineering techniques simulate real-world attack scenarios. By mimicking the tactics used by malicious actors, you can gain a realistic assessment of your security controls and identify any weaknesses or gaps that need to be addressed.

To ensure that this intricate process is executed seamlessly, you need experienced professionals to implement it for you. At RankSecure, we follow a systematic approach towards social engineering assessment, that not only involves discovering and classifying potential vulnerabilities but also helping you understand the ways in which they can be mitigated.

Here is an overview of our approach to VAPT:

Our approach towards providing reliable, complete Social Engineering Assessment services

1. Planning & Inspection

Our first step is to gather information about your organisation, which includes understanding your structure, employees, and technology infrastructure, as well as an evaluation of publicly available information (websites, social media profiles, employee directories, and more).

Based on this information, we identify potential targets within your organisation. These targets could be employees, departments, or specific systems that are likely to have access to valuable assets or sensitive information.

2. Pretext Development

Our VAPT team then creates a plausible scenario or pretext to engage the target. This could involve crafting a convincing email, phone call, or in-person interaction.

The pretext is designed to exploit human vulnerabilities and obtain the desired response from the target, such as gaining sensitive information or performing certain actions.

3. Execution

We then use a suitable method to simulate the social engineering attack while gathering data, such as passwords, access credentials, or other sensitive information. It helps the experts assess your organisation’s vulnerabilities and the effectiveness of your security controls.

4. Reporting & Remediation

We then use a suitable method to simulate the social engineering attack, while gathering data, such as passwords, access credentials, or other sensitive information. It helps the experts in assessing your organisation’s vulnerabilities and the effectiveness of your security controls.

Uncovering the benefits of dependable social engineering assessments

While organisations invest in various technical security measures, the human element remains critical to overall security. Employees can ultimately become the weakest link if they fall victim to social engineering attacks.

By employing the services of expert testers and evaluating your employees' susceptibility to such attacks, you can gauge the effectiveness of your security awareness programmes and create a more robust security structure.
