Application Security
Vulnerable web-facing applications are rapidly becoming the most popular attack vector of malicious hackers. Application code vulnerabilities and design flaws in content-rich, web-based, thick-client, and mobile apps can be targeted to penetrate networks and steal sensitive information. To mitigate these threats, application security assessments must be built into the development and release lifecycle.
Cloud Security
Coalfire’s approach to analyzing cyber risk in cloud native or hybrid cloud ecosystems provides visibility into the controls, processes, cyber threats, and risks to your SaaS, PaaS, APIs, and other cloud service provider deployments. The resulting perspective on the cyber risks encountered, transferred, or shared enables leadership to make informed cyber risk-based decisions, improve deployment orchestration and automation, and identify ROI on cloud security investments. Following the cloud security risk assessment, we prioritize the results, identifying process and control weaknesses, threats, and potential impacts of a cyber event on your organization. We leverage this information to develop a tailored roadmap for reducing your cloud ecosystem’s cyber risk and improving cyber resilience

PCI Forensic Investigators
Our application security assessments identify weaknesses in your proprietary or third-party applications and propose fixes that enhance your system’s security posture. By combining the use of leading tools with targeted, expert manual analysis of your application, we diagnose threat susceptibility and provide you with repeatable, measurable, transparent, and actionable results. Through the evaluation of hundreds of technology stacks for government agencies, Fortune 500 companies, and cloud service providers, Coalfire Labs has developed a comprehensive approach to analyzing solutions and built standard frameworks and completely custom implementations.
Penetration Testing
Our penetration testing engagements identify threats to your organization, key assets that may be at risk, and the threat agents that may attempt to compromise them. Each engagement is customized to your requirements and may span from breaching a single host to gaining deep network access. We begin by identifying assignment objectives, as well as the attack vectors and scenarios that we’ll use. Throughout the engagement, we provide ongoing status reports, immediate identification of critical risks, and knowledge transfer to your technical team. At the end of the process, we ensure you have a complete understanding of the exploitable vulnerabilities in your environment and recommended remediation strategies.
Qualified Security Assessor
The white paper is based on an independent review of Bluefin’s PayConex™ PCI P2PE Solution by Coalfire Systems Inc. (Coalfire), a respected PCI P2PE Qualified Security Assessor (QSA) company. On March 18th, Bluefin introduced the first, and to date the only, PCI-validated solution for point-to-point encryption (P2PE) in North America.
Social Engineering
Many organizations go to great lengths to protect their sensitive data with firewalls and access security systems, yet fail to realize that the weakest link in their data defenses is their own people. Social engineering is the most common – and highly successful – tactic used by adversaries to gain unauthorized access to a network. Social engineering is a non-technical intrusion that tricks unsuspecting employees into breaking normal security procedures and giving network access to attackers.
Vulnerability Management
Our vulnerability assessment services help you assess on-premise hosts, databases, and web applications to identify potential configuration and asset management deficiencies. From there, you can strengthen your cyber defenses and ensure consistency and completeness of your security processes. Coalfire does this on a regular basis to ensure continued identification and resolution of potential security issues.
