USE CASE

SOC Compliance Enhancement

For an enterprise client, SPCNXT leveraged Gen-AI, specifically Meta AI’s LLama2 and LLama3,to significantly improve the SOC compliance process. By utilizing the input documents provided
by the enterprise, SPCNXT’s AI-powered solution was able to assess the level of compliance
more comprehensively and efficiently compared to the traditional sampling method. This usecase demonstrates SPCNXT’s ability to streamline compliance processes and ensure higher
accuracy in meeting regulatory requirements.

VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT & PENATRATION TESTING

PENETRATION TESTING SERVICES APPROACH

This methodology covers everything related to a penetration test. Right from the initial communication, information gathering it also covers threat modeling phases to get a better understanding of the target through vulnerability research, exploitation and post exploitation.

1.
Define Scope

Discussion on In Scoped and Out Scoped Parameters

2.
Enumeration /Recon

Passive & Active Information Gathering

3.
Assessment Scanning

Identification & Validation of Vulnerabilities

4.
Exploitation

Exploit the True Vulnerability to gain unauthorized access

5.
Post Exploitation

Escalate the Privilege level and Extract the sensitive data

6.
Reporting

Report all the Findings with Remediation to fi the identified

tools used for va&pt
