Core Impact

Core Impact is a powerful penetration testing platform designed to enable security teams to conduct advanced tests with ease. With guided automation and certified exploits, you can safely test your environment using the same techniques as today’s adversaries.

Rapid Penetration Testing

Use automated Rapid Penetration Tests (RPTs) to discover, test, and report in just a few simple steps.

Core Certified Exploits

Test with confidence using a trusted platform designed and supported by experts for more than 20 years.

Centralized Toolset

Gather information, exploit systems, and generate reports, all in one place.

Proving the presence of a security hole through penetration testing demonstrates the problem in the most direct way possible and Core Impact has been very useful to the university in providing us with the means to more quickly and reliably validate vulnerabilities across our systems and applications.

- Large Midwestern University,
United States

Running a penetration test used to be very risky, but now with Core Impact the testing and penetration processes are safer and more manageable. Also, Core Impact made my team and me more efficient, reducing our testing time from days to just minutes a week.

United States

The beauty of Core Impact is how dynamic it is; it has so many canned modules, but if I want to modify or create my own modules and take the test a step further I can. There’s also the issue of testing safely. With some testing products you can’t predict what might happen after you run a particular exploit, but with Core Impact you can, and you know that when you’re done testing everything will be removed.

Key Features

Multi-Vector Testing Capabilities

Utilize multi-vector testing capabilities to assess defensive technologies’ ability to identify vulnerabilities, stop attacks, and enable you to immediately remediate risks.

Strategic Automation

Core Impact's Rapid Penetration Tests (RPTs) are accessible automations designed to automate time consuming and repetitive tasks. RPTs help optimize the use of your security resources by simplifying processes, maximizing efficiency, and enabling pen testers to focus on more complex issues.

Certified Exploits

Leverage our professionally written and validated exploit library for real-world testing capabilities. This stable library of commercial-grade exploits has real-time updates of new penetration testing exploits and tests for additional platforms as they become available.

Extensive, customizable reporting

Comprehensive reporting capabilities can be used to validate compliance with industry regulations.

Leave no trace

Enable programmable self-destruct capabilities for agents at different levels (product, workspace, module/RPT). This means no agent is left behind after testing to drain resources or be used as a potential backdoor for attackers.

Pen Testing for Any Industry

Every industry has its own considerations, processes, and compliance requirements. Whatever industry you’re in, Core Impact works to find vulnerabilities before attackers can exploit them. Here’s a sampling:

FINANCIAL SERVICES

Core Impact contains more CVEs than any other system, making sure that you are covering the most vulnerabilities with each test.

HEALTHCARE

Correlate known exploits, attack patterns, network, and security data with identified vulnerabilities to create demonstrable attack paths to critical healthcare assets that can be used to produce an achievable remediation plan.

HIGHER EDUCATION

Universities are just as much a target as large enterprises. See how faculty, staff, and students would fare against attacks and educate them as needed.

ENERGY & UTILITIES

Numerous regulations like NIST, CIP, and NERC surround energy and utility companies. Core Impact can not only prove compliance,but also show if you are truly protected.

RETAIL

People trust stores every day to carry out transactions while keeping their information safe. Core Impact will help keep this trust, and meet mandatory criteria of Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI-DSS).

GOVERNMENT

With national security at risk, and regulations like FISMA requiring stringent controls, Core Impact can help prepare for audits and conduct regular assessments of user awareness.

Supported Regulations

Penetration testing is a vital way to stay compliant and prove adherence to external mandates. Core Impact helps organizations better protect their sensitive data and supports multiple regulations, including:
