Infrastructure Penetration Testing – Protecting your Data & Dollar

Infrastructure Penetration Testing

Assess, fortify, and future-proof your underlying network, cloud, and on-premises systems against advanced adversaries with Tranchulas’ tailored infrastructure security evaluations.

Today’s infrastructure is an intricate tapestry of legacy servers, virtualized machines, container clusters, load balancers, cloud APIs, and ephemeral compute instances—all interwoven with complex identity and access mechanisms. At Tranchulas, we dissect these layers with a specialist’s lens. By simulating advanced attack patterns—from perimeter breaches to deep lateral movement—our experts validate your security assumptions, pinpoint critical misconfigurations, and reinforce your foundational defenses. The goal is to ensure that no matter how rapidly your infrastructure evolves, it remains a resilient stronghold against modern cyber threats.

Why Infrastructure Penetration Testing?

Your infrastructure forms the backbone of your IT operations. A single misconfigured firewall rule or an unsecured orchestration tool can open a backdoor to threat actors. Infrastructure penetration testing identifies weak trust boundaries, overlooked legacy segments, and subtle misconfigurations lurking beneath the surface. With Tranchulas penetration testing methodologies, you gain the confidence that your environment—from physical servers and VLANs to Kubernetes clusters and serverless functions—is prepared to withstand real-world infiltration attempts.

Layer-by-Layer Insight

Delve into every operational layer—network edge, virtualization hosts, container orchestration, storage systems—exposing vulnerabilities invisible to superficial scans.
Advanced Lateral Movement Testing

Experience attacker-like techniques such as pivoting through compromised endpoints, exploiting Active Directory misconfigurations, and escalating privileges to simulate APT-style infiltration.
Zero-Trust Validation

Confirm the effectiveness of your zero-trust strategies, ensuring that no device, account, or service slips by without proper scrutiny.
Adaptive to Modern Workloads

Validate the resilience of ephemeral environments, serverless services, and cloud-native infrastructures that scale dynamically and demand continuous security attention.

Our Approach & Methodology

Tranchulas bridges cutting-edge automation with expert-led scenario crafting:

Discovery & Mapping

We methodically enumerate hosts, services, and dependencies, uncovering shadow IT assets, legacy endpoints, and hidden network segments.

Misconfiguration & Segmentation Testing

We probe firewall rules, routing tables, IAM policies, and container orchestrators to expose weak perimeter controls, overly permissive security groups, and insufficient network segmentation.

Privilege Escalation & Persistence

Using tools like BloodHound to map Active Directory trust paths, and leveraging infrastructure-as-code (IaC) scanning for policy drifts, we simulate attackers burrowing deeper into your environment—elevating privileges, capturing credentials, and establishing persistence.

Exploitation of Emerging Attack Surfaces

We test against novel attack vectors—container escape scenarios, identity federation misconfigurations, misused cloud APIs—ensuring your defenses stay current with evolving threat landscapes.

Actionable Remediation Guidance

Beyond reports, we provide strategic advice: how to harden network segmentation, refine zero-trust policies, enforce least-privilege access, and continuously monitor ephemeral assets. Our recommendations integrate seamlessly into your DevSecOps workflows, promoting sustained resilience.

Technology & Standards Alignment

We align infrastructure penetration testing with leading frameworks and standards while embracing next-gen tooling:

MITRE ATT&CK

Map detected vulnerabilities and weaknesses directly to known adversarial TTPs.

CIS Benchmarks & IaC Security

Evaluate compliance against hardened baselines for Kubernetes, AWS, Azure, GCP, and more.

OWASP & Cloud Security Alliance Guidance

Ensure cloud and container environments comply with accepted best practices.
