Know what attackers see before they get in.
Stop trusting your controls. Start proving them. Most breaches start when weak passwords, stale patches, or loose permissions inside your network give an attacker room to move. Network Security Penetration Testing safely simulates those paths so you can fix them before someone else finds them.
Network Security Penetration Testing
Annual point-in-time pen tests answer what happened one afternoon. Our Network Security Testing option keeps an on-site appliance exercising credentialed paths and misconfigurations across the devices you authorize, month over month, with autonomous probing so you get proof and prioritization instead of a vague heat map that ages out before you patch. Supports HIPAA Security Rule technical evaluation requirements under 45 CFR § 164.308(a)(8).
Network Security Penetration Testing is automated internal penetration testing from your LAN: non-destructive, repeatable, and scoped to the desktops, servers, and network gear you authorize (plus optional unmanaged devices for test scope only). A small on-site appliance exercises credentialed attack paths the way real intruders would—chaining misconfigurations, weak credentials, and lateral movement toward high-value assets—month after month, instead of a one-day snapshot that ages out before you patch.
What the test looks for
Weak or reused credentials, unpatched software, excessive permissions, misconfigurations that allow lateral movement, and chained paths toward critical systems or data.
Safe and repeatable
Testing is automated and non-destructive. Re-run after remediation to prove issues are closed, not just marked done in a spreadsheet.
Scoped to your footprint
Managed desktops, servers, and network devices from your signup counts, plus optional unmanaged devices that count for testing only.
Attackers pick targets by opportunity, not by company size. Breaches often succeed because internal systems trust each other too much, old fixes were never retested, or a routine IT change opened a new hole. Pen testing answers practical questions: if someone got in, how far could they go, which systems would fall first, and what should you fix now instead of later?
We email pentest reports to the subscriber on the interval you choose at signup. Full reports list vulnerabilities and recommended fix actions. That fee covers the report only. Hiring Tates PC to mitigate findings is optional, quoted on request, and depends on our availability. Qualified IT staff, your regular MSP, and many clients can close the issues using the fix-actions report. Full reports are billed yearly with testing at $105.00 per report.
Executive Report Only is a yearly summary: a count of vulnerabilities and of devices that have vulnerabilities. It does not include detailed fix-action directions. It is billed as one report per year ($105.00).
- $4.00/device/mo, billed yearly — Network Security Penetration Testing (minimum 5 devices in test scope).
- Emailed reports with vulnerabilities and fix actions, billed yearly with testing at $105.00/report (monthly, quarterly, or every 6 months). Executive Report Only is a yearly count of vulnerabilities and affected devices, without fix-action steps, billed as one report ($105.00). Reporting only; remediation by Tates PC is separate if requested.
- On-site appliance hardware and setup $1,000.00 once per organization.
What you receive
Emailed reports with prioritized findings and fix actions your IT team, MSP, or Tates PC can work from.
Prioritized findings
Vulnerabilities ranked by risk so remediation starts where impact is highest.
Proof and context
Each issue includes how an attacker could use it, not just a CVE number and a shrug.
Fix and verify
Findings come with proof and remediation guidance, not a vague heat map. After you close an issue, re-run testing to confirm the path is actually gone—turning security into a fix-and-verify loop instead of an annual PDF that sits unread.
How it fits the Tates PC stack
Network Security Penetration Testing works best alongside Ai PC Fix for patching and endpoint protection, Tates PC Cloud Protect and Tates PC Immutable Backup & Disaster Recovery when you need recoverability after ransomware, and Microsoft 365 identity controls when email and sign-in are part of the attack story. Every Tates PC service stays optional and modular; you add testing when you want proof, not because a bundle forced it.
Who it is for
Businesses with cyber-insurance or compliance questionnaires, organizations handling regulated or sensitive data, teams that have never run internal penetration testing, and anyone who wants continuous proof instead of a once-a-year checkbox exercise.
Pen testing is about clarity, not fear. Turn on Network Security Penetration Testing in the signup builder when you want dated evidence for management, insurers, or auditors, not a vague sense that things are probably fine.
