Testing
Internal Penetration Testing
Protect your organization's most critical assets from insider threats by simulating attacks on your network. Testers will move laterally and escalate privileges to gain access to personal information, business infrastructure, and intellectual property.
Know Your Threats
Real-world internal attacks require more than scanners to detect and validate true risk.
Insider Threat Simulation
84% of breaches originate from inside the organization. Our testers use automated and manual attack execution to gain initial footholds on internal networks and demonstrate the real attack paths threat actors use to complete internal breaches.
Beyond Scanners
Sprocket testers perform advanced attacks such as kerberoasting, ADCS abuse, protocol abuse, Zerologon, and more every day using a Continuous Penetration Testing model to expose risks scanners will never catch.

Internal Testing Insights
After each internal engagement, testers document every attack path used, with exploited paths converted into Findings inside the Platform for validation, tracking, and remediation.
How It Works
A structured, real-world attack workflow that mirrors how internal breaches actually unfold.
Dropbox Setup
The foundation of your internal testing program.
A physical or virtual dropbox is deployed inside your environment to receive exfiltrated data and serve as the launch point for all attacks—replicating how a real attacker would operate from within your network or cloud.
Vulnerability Analysis
Identify exploitable weaknesses across your internal environment.
Testers analyze applications, services, assets, and configurations to uncover misconfigurations, outdated systems, and security gaps with actionable remediation context.
Credential Abuse
Turn exposed identities into real compromise scenarios.
Through advanced password attacks and authentication abuse, testers attempt to gain access using employee credentials; one of the most common and effective breach techniques.
Gain Foothold & Exploitation
Convert access into attacker persistence.
Using exploited vulnerabilities, abused credentials, or misconfigurations, testers establish a foothold on internal or cloud assets to simulate real adversary entry points.
Lateral Movement
Map how attackers spread inside your network.
Once inside, testers move laterally to reach sensitive systems, critical infrastructure, and high-value targets that attackers prioritize in real breaches.
Showcase Impact
Demonstrate the true business risk of exploitation.
Testers validate what sensitive data can be accessed or exfiltrated, clearly illustrating the real-world consequences of a successful internal compromise.
Why Continuous Testing is Better
Hear from three of Sprocket’s expert testers - Nick Berrie, Nick Aures, and Nate Fair - as they share why continuous security testing outperforms traditional, point-in-time pentesting. They break down how a continuous model uncovers real risk faster, more accurately, and with far greater impact.
