In the continuous battle of cybersecurity, merely building defensive walls is not enough; you must know where the cracks in those walls lie. This is the essence of Offensive Security. Instead of waiting for a real attack to occur, our experts simulate the tactics of actual attackers to uncover vulnerabilities in your systems, applications, and infrastructure. Nozom Techs offers advanced offensive security services that help organizations in Saudi Arabia proactively strengthen their security posture.

Offensive security testing is a fundamental requirement within the controls of the National Cybersecurity Authority (NCA) and the Saudi Central Bank (SAMA), as these tests ensure the effectiveness of implemented defensive controls and contribute to raising the organization’s level of Cyber Resilience.

Nozom’s Offensive Cybersecurity Services

We offer a comprehensive suite of tests that simulate various types of threats:

1. Penetration Testing

Conducting a simulated real-world cyberattack on your network, web applications, or mobile applications. This test aims to identify vulnerabilities that can be exploited to access sensitive data, and it includes specialized Application Security services.

2. Vulnerability Assessment

Utilizing advanced tools and methodologies for comprehensive scanning of all digital assets to identify known weaknesses, prioritizing them based on their severity and business impact.

3. Advanced Attack Simulation (Red Teaming)

A comprehensive security exercise that simulates a long-term, targeted attack, testing not only technical systems but also the capabilities of the Security Operations Center (SOC) to detect and respond, as well as testing employee security awareness (social engineering).

4. Security Configuration Review

Verifying the correctness of system, server, and network configurations to ensure there are no vulnerabilities resulting from configuration errors or the use of insecure default settings.
