External Penetration Testing can play an important part in securing a company's private information and data. Hackers all around the world work nonstop in the attempt to find vulnerabilities within an organizations server, website, or firewall. Once the vulnerability is accessed, they then try to exploit it which in turn compromises important company data.
At †he Sheppard Way, we specialize in finding the vulnerabilities and testing each one to verify if it is exploitable. We find information that should be hidden and reveal it to the customer, in order for them to secure it before a hacker exploits it.
We test many types of items such as:
- Firewalls
- Linux Servers
- Windows Servers
- Domain Name Services (DNS)
- Email Servers
- Virtual Private Network (VPN)
- Web Sites
These are just some of the many items we test thoroughly and proficiently, all at the lowest prices guaranteed. At †he Sheppard Way, we believe that people shouldn't get overcharged for wanting better security.
Domain Name Services (DNS) Testing
DNS testing is particularly important for Mail Servers. Many time a mail server is not configured correctly and becomes used as an open relay for spammers. This means that there is a high chance the server is now on several blacklists which in turn can cause users from not being able to send or receive emails from several domains. †he Sheppard Way runs over 100 DNS tests to verify if a Mail Server is configured appropriately.
SQL Injection Vulnerability Testing
SQL Injection is one of the more popular web site attacks used by hackers in order to steal important data from organizations. It is one of the most common attack techniques used today, and one of the most successful.
At †he Sheppard Way, we perform several tests specifically for SQL Injection vulnerabilities, and use top of the line tools to verify what is acceptable to these type of attacks. We guarantee that if a hacker is able to find out what's vulnerable, we can find out first if given the opportunity.
File tampering testing involves detecting if an intruder has deleted or modified important files on the company server in order to steal information, and leave a backdoor in order to gain access back into the system whenever possible.
Common Problems in Web Applications
Several types of common problems that exists in web applications are issues such as Remote Code Execution, Format String Vulnerabilities, Cross Site Scripting, Username Enumeration, etc. At †he Sheppard Way, we are award of the common problems that exist within web applications and make it our goal to find out what problems exist within a business.
I had my website tested by The Sheppard Way for
vulnerabilities, and any other security measures I should be
concerned about. I am not the most computer tech savvy person in the
world, so I was afraid I would not be able to understand the
information I would be receiving back, regarding my site. I knew
these tests needed to be done, so I took a chance, and had it
checked out. I was informed about a minor exploit on the server I
was using, and other Wordpress vulnerabilities that I further need
to look into. I was pleased with not only the results, but also the
format of the report itself. For me being an average computer user
who runs a simple Wordpress blog, I found the report very easy to
follow, and understand. I feel much safer knowing my sites
weaknesses so I can get to them before someone else does, and I can
thank The Sheppard Way for that.

I'm a business owner who also owns several domains that brings in a lot of traffic and revenue. I am fully aware of what hackers can do and so I called upon The Sheppard Way to help in making sure my server was secure. I was blown away by the report generated, and even after The Sheppard Way's services were completed, they still helped me to secure the files they found. Thanks to The Sheppard Way, I know my private information is safe from the public.
