An assessment of the in-place physical security infrastructure is made in order to determine potential weaknesses which may be exploited by malicious actors.

In order to assess the functionality and practicality of current security tactics, techniques, and procedures, PWT Solutions consultants serve as third-party observers of various company internal drills. From the information gathered, a thorough after-actions review will be conducted in order to assess the effectiveness of the emergency action plans in place.

In coordination with organization leaders, PWT Solutions consultants will conduct a physical penetration test of target facilities. The test consists of three phases: a reconnaissance phase, execution phase, and an after-actions report/review phase. During the reconnaissance phase, PWT Solutions staff will both actively and passively collect information regarding your organization’s security procedures, as well as security infrastructure. From the information gathered, live-exploitation of weaknesses (within pre-determined scope) will take place in order to gain access. Upon completion of the exercise, a comprehensive report outlining the methods used by PWT Solutions staff will be provided and reviewed with the client management, staff, and interested parties.

Following the completion of the physical penetration test, PWT Solutions consultants along with organizational security managers, conduct an intensive review of company internal security standard operating procedures. Any identified weaknesses will be addressed and met with threat mitigating solutions in order to remove exploitable gaps from the present security posture.
