DALLAS, June 23, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Cyber Group, a premier Dallas-based IT consulting firm and Salesforce certified consulting partner, recently engaged the services of Synopsys to perform a successful penetration test assessment on Cyber Group's Ignite product.

The Ignite integration platform is already getting significant traction with Cyber Group's customers and becoming an integration platform between Salesforce and other ERP systems such as NetSuite, Oracle, and Sage. Getting a stamp of approval from Synopsys signifies Cyber Group's commitment to limit information security exposures into our customer's environments. Integration platforms have become a key component of every enterprise and securing the information exchange between different systems is of the utmost importance.

About Synopsys Penetration Tests

The Synopsys Penetration Testing Essential (PT-E) is a time-boxed penetration test, with a focus on covering industry standards such as the latest OWASP Top 10 and NIST 800-63. An extensive manual checklist and goal-oriented business logic testing was used in addition to automated scanners using automated scanning tools to discover common vulnerabilities. PT-E supports testing of both web applications, REST APIs, and SOAP-based web services. Manual testing included validation of all issue types covered under the automated scan as well as checks for problems not typically found by automated scanners such as authentication, authorization, and business logic flaws. The overall approach included an initial assessment of the platform, followed by Synopsys's Retest 1, and then Retest 2. The purpose of these assessments was to assess the overall security posture of the application from a grey-box perspective. This includes determining the application's ability to resist common attack patterns and identifying vulnerable areas in the internal or external interfaces that may be exploited by a malicious user.

Following successful collaboration with Synopsys, the Ignite platform had no issue identified.
