Cyber threats don’t wait, and neither should your defenses. As attackers grow more sophisticated, businesses must choose tools that match the pace. While antivirus software handles familiar threats, Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) brings deeper visibility and faster action against advanced attacks. In this post, we break down how EDR and antivirus stack up and…

Starting a SOC 2 program means creating controls that fit your company’s goals, risks, and systems. These controls will vary depending on how your organization operates, the data you handle, and what your customers expect. SOC 2 is based on five Trust Services Criteria, each tied to a specific type of risk. Knowing which controls…

Not all SOC reports serve the same purpose. While they may sound similar, SOC 1, SOC 2, and SOC 3 each focus on different types of risk, audiences, and use cases. If you are unsure which one applies to your business or your customers are asking for one you are not familiar with, this breakdown…

You’ve probably come across SOC reports while researching how to show customers or partners that your company takes security seriously. There are a few types: SOC 1, SOC 2, and SOC 3. It can get a little confusing figuring out which one fits your needs. Most organizations focus on SOC 2, but SOC 3 appears…

The growth of Internet of Things (IoT) devices has brought new entry points for attackers. Many of these systems, such as medical wearables, factory controllers, and connected vehicles, operate without strict access controls or regular software updates.  IoT penetration testing focuses on finding weak spots in how these devices communicate, store data, and interact with…

As more companies move to the cloud, keeping those environments secure becomes a priority.  Cloud penetration testing is a way to simulate real-world attacks and spot weaknesses in cloud setups like misconfigured storage, exposed APIs, or overly broad permissions.  It focuses on the areas you control, since cloud providers and users share responsibility for security.…

Mobile applications are frequent targets for attackers who seek out security flaws to exploit sensitive user data, compromise device integrity, or gain unauthorized access. Mobile application penetration testing focuses on finding these weaknesses before real attackers do. This blog introduces mobile application penetration testing. You’ll get a clear understanding of how this testing works, what…

If you’re getting started with API Penetration Testing, it’s critical to understand not just how APIs work but also how they break. APIs handle sensitive data, enforce permissions, and link services, which makes them a frequent target for attackers. Testing them the way an attacker would is the only way to find the weak points…

Physical penetration testing exposes weaknesses that digital security measures often miss. This article explains what physical penetration testers examine, why these tests are essential, and how to apply the findings effectively. Updates will follow as new tactics and standards develop. Strong firewalls and cybersecurity tools do not protect against a weak door lock or an…

Achieving SOC 2 compliance in 2025 has shifted from a nice-to-have to a baseline requirement for technology companies. Auditors now demand proof that security controls function under real conditions, not just exist in policy documents. This article explains what SOC 2 expects from penetration testing in 2025. If you are managing security or compliance, you…
