Vulnerability Assessment
A vulnerability assessment attempts to find holes in the Client’s security systems and practices. The assessment asks the question, “where can an intruder gain unauthorised access to IT infrastructure, databases, and applications”. Nexus Cybernet check network and Web Application Components. The checks include the search for known and unknown vulnerabilities, including missing patch levels, out-of-date operating systems, out-of-date software revisions, and open and exposed ports.
The assessment checks:
Checks Network equipment (Servers, Routers, Firewalls etc.)
Checks Web Applications (Websites, Portals etc.)
Penetration Testing
Penetration Testing, also known as Pen Testing, is a simulated cyber attack on a computer system or network to identify vulnerabilities and weaknesses. Nexus CynerNet’s Penetration Testing-as-a-Service (PTaaS) uses the same tools, techniques, and methodologies as malicious hackers to simulate a real-world attack on your IT infrastructure. Unlike a real attack, our PTaaS is conducted in a controlled environment, allowing you to discover and fix problems before they can be exploited by attackers. Our PTaaS service produces a comprehensive report that not only identifies security vulnerabilities but also provides recommendations on how to improve your overall security posture.
Dark Web Monitoring
Nexus CyberNet SOC is dedicated to keeping your corporate domains and employee data safe by continuously monitoring them against a database of breached data lakes on the dark web. In the event of a breach, our SOC team immediately alerts you through a triaged escalation process, led by a human analyst, and works with your team to take corrective actions. At Nexus CyberNet, our mission is to make the web a safer place by disrupting darknet underground activities. Through proactively protecting our customers against stolen corporate credentials or compromised machines, we strive to prevent bad actors from profiting off of stolen corporate data.
Security Awareness Training
85% of all successful data breaches in 2023 involved the human element.
Every organisation’s first line of defence against cyber threats is its employees, but unfortunately, they’re also the weakest security link. To protect your business from cyber attacks, your employees must be equipped with the knowledge and skills to recognise cybersecurity risks such as phishing scams and password hacks and trained to respond and share information appropriately. Rigorous cybersecurity awareness training is the key to turning this human weakness into a strength.
The first step towards a more secure business is always cybersecurity awareness. It’s self-explanatory—employees can’t avoid phishing attempts if they don’t know what one looks like. Effective cybersecurity awareness training keeps all employees up-to-date on cyber threats and how to handle them. By providing proactive cybersecurity training, employees can adopt best practices across all platforms, minimizing the risk of a successful cyber attack.

Cybersecurity Skillset GAP
Hiring and Training Security team inhouse is expensive. Keeping a pace with ever increasing threat landscape is also one of the biggest challenges in inhouse SOC.
High Dwell Time
Detecting & Containment of the attack quickly is the sole success criteria of SOC. Dwell Time of inhouse SOC is 45+ days- Higher time means higher risks and cost.

FAQ’s
Penetration Testing, in contrast, is a more comprehensive approach that includes identifying vulnerabilities and exploiting them using real-world methods. It also helps identify the potential impact of discovered vulnerabilities on business operations and provides recommendations to address those weaknesses.
Pentesting should be performed at least once or twice a year to detect and remediate new or unknown vulnerabilities. It is also recommended to conduct Pentesting whenever substantial upgrades or modifications are performed to the organisation’s infrastructure or the applications used in the environment.
Once the security recommendations have been implemented, you can conduct Remediation Verification Vulnerability Assessments or Penetration Testing to validate if the appropriate measures have been taken to counter the risks identified.
Conducting Pentesting can provide an in-depth and detailed report containing an executive summary of the results, highlighted security concerns, and recommendations. This report allows organisations to understand where their security is weak and how it may affect their operations.
Dark Web functions primarily as a black marketplace where cyber criminals can sell or broker transactions involving compromised accounts, stoles employee PII data, corporate asset information, stolen credit card data, along with other illicit goods such as drugs, weapons etc.
Corporate employee info can end up on the Dark Web in several ways. Some of the most common attack vectors to steal information or credentials are a phishing attack, a broader breach during a cyberattack, malware attacks via email or web, or ransomware attacks.
Dark Web functions primarily as a black marketplace where stolen data acts as a form of currency on the Dark Web. Bad actors broker stolen data to buy and sell to facilitate targeted corporate cyber-attacks, public data leaks, or initiate ransomware attacks.
Socially engineered messages are messages that “appear legitimate and from a trustworthy source” sent by a malicious entity to direct users into performing specific actions such as opening an attachment, visiting a website, revealing account credentials, providing sensitive information, or transferring money. Socially engineered messages are likely to be work-related, infer a sense of urgency, or target a specific interest of users. They may also appear to come from someone known to users, such as a colleague, senior manager, or authoritative part of their organisation (e.g., the information technology, human resources, or finance areas).
Security Awareness Training educates your employees on how to identify false messages so that they project their and your information.
