Penetration Testing as a Managed Security Add-On
Attack Surface Review is a managed penetration testing add-on from Remote Management NZ. It is built for organisations that want to go beyond basic security checks and understand how exposed they really are.
Traditional tools can tell you what is missing. Attack Surface Review is focused on showing what could be exploited, how far an attacker could move, and which weaknesses matter most. Vendor documentation for the underlying platform describes this as following the same broad methodology consultants use in manual tests, while automating delivery so testing can happen more regularly.
What Attack Surface Review helps uncover
- Externally exposed weaknesses that could be targeted from the internet
- Internal network weaknesses that could be abused after a compromise
- Misconfigurations, risky permissions, and paths to privilege escalation
- Gaps between your current security tools and your actual attack surface
The underlying platform supports internal and external network penetration testing, and newer documentation also references credential-based grey-box internal testing aimed at finding privilege escalation risks and permission issues.
What you receive
- A clear executive summary for management
- A technical findings report for remediation work
- Actionable recommendations prioritised by risk
- A repeatable testing service that can be run regularly as part of your security program
Why add it to your stack
Security tools are important, but they do not always show how an attacker could chain weaknesses together. Attack Surface Review adds a testing layer to your stack, helping validate whether your existing controls are reducing real attack paths or simply generating alerts.
This makes it a strong add-on for businesses that already invest in managed IT or managed security and want a more realistic view of risk.
