Pentest Virtualizations - Security Check of VM Environments

Virtualizations or the containerization of operating systems or servers for better scaling are often part of modern infrastructure. The multi-layered configurations, orchestrations, and implementations should be checked by a pentest.

Definition and Explanation

What Is a Pentest for Virtualization Environments?

A Pentest of virtualizations - that is, a penetration test specifically for virtualized infrastructures - serves to specifically uncover vulnerabilities in the architecture, configuration, and orchestration. Virtualizations are often used to reduce costs and operate systems more efficiently. However, the complexity of these environments carries risks - from misconfigurations to security gaps in the software.

A professional penetration test for virtualizations assesses all security-relevant aspects of your environment - from the conception to the ongoing communication between virtual machines (VMs), containers, and APIs.

Cyber Security for Modern Infrastructure

Complex Relationships in Modern Infrastructure

In the interplay and orchestration of various components, misconfigurations or exploitable authorization schemes are analyzed through a comprehensive pentest. The communication, through APIs and networks, from the containers and virtualizations are at the center of the overall concept's IT security.

Penetration Tests for Virtualizations

Uncover IT Vulnerabilities in Software or Server Virtualizations!

The security analysis for virtualizations is planned, carried out, and evaluated by our specially trained pentesters according to recognized standards.

Infrastructure Components: We fundamentally test all types of virtualization environments, such as infrastructure, server and operating system virtualizations, application virtualizations and network virtualizations.
Virtualization or Containerization: Use our comprehensive security certificate to demonstrate to customers the high level of security of your applications and infrastructures. A successful accreditation is preceded by a cloud assessment or penetration test.
Compliance and Security Recommendation Adherence: Due to our experience in this modern field, we have our own test guidelines. There is no public standard for this.
