Security practice that tests and educates your employees on recognizing and avoiding phishing attacks. By simulating phishing emails, we assess your organization's vulnerability to social engineering tactics.
In most cases, attacks on companies, their websites, apps, and systems are conducted with the goal of making money. Industries that tend to be targeted are media companies, e-commerce businesses, finance, manufacturing like automotive industries. These industries are targeted because they possess data with high monetary value, such as customers' personal information or proprietary technologies.
Cybercrime is borderless, and there is a risk of attacks from anywhere in the world on Indonesian companies. Some small and medium-sized business owners believe that they won't be attacked and that they are safe. However, this is not true, and there are many cases of such businesses being victimized.
While large and well-known companies are frequently targeted by attacks that are tailored specifically to them, smaller businesses are often hit with random attacks. These attacks involve targeting IP addresses and exploiting vulnerabilities. While large company attacks are often reported in the news, small and medium-sized businesses are not as widely recognized, despite the fact that they are frequent hacked.
Implementing security measures can be costly, but the costs of an attack are exponentially higher. While determining how much security to implement is difficult, the first step is to assess the level of vulnerability of your digital assets.
In 2024, cyberattacks have become more sophisticated, targeting a range of vulnerabilities from outdated WordPress plugins to weak access controls. For example, a recent breach exploited broken access controls, allowing hackers to escalate privileges and access sensitive files within a company’s cloud-based system.
At the same time, phishing attacks remain a top threat, with attackers using personalized emails to trick employees into revealing login credentials, which were then used to deploy stealer malware that harvested passwords and financial data or ransomware to take hostage of victim data. In another case, a supply chain attack compromised trusted software, infecting thousands of downstream users, reminiscent of the SolarWinds breach. These evolving threats underscore the urgent need for businesses to adopt proactive measures like penetration testing to identify and fix vulnerabilities before they are exploited.
Learn Our Penetration Testing ServicesType of malicious software designed to block access to a system or encrypt valuable data, making it inaccessible until a ransom is paid, usually in cryptocurrency. Attackers often gain access through vulnerabilities in outdated software, weak credentials, or via phishing attacks, where unsuspecting users click on a malicious link or download an infected attachment, inadvertently triggering the ransomware.
Vulnerability allowing attackers to bypass authentication or permission restrictions. This vulnerability can lead to unauthorized access to sensitive files, user accounts, or admin-level controls. With the increased use of remote work and cloud-based systems, misconfigured access controls are a prime target, as demonstrated by recent breaches where attackers manipulated user roles to escalate their privileges.
In these attacks, victims are tricked into revealing sensitive information such as login credentials, credit card details, or other personal information via fake emails, messages, or websites. Modern phishing schemes are becoming increasingly targeted and sophisticated, using personalized social engineering techniques to deceive even the most cautious users. These attacks can lead to identity theft, corporate espionage, or widespread data breaches when internal systems are accessed.
Presents a growing concern. This type of malware specifically targets and steals sensitive information such as passwords, financial data, and browser history, often operating undetected until the damage is done. Stealer malware is frequently spread through phishing emails, malicious downloads, or compromised websites, and is a favorite tool for cybercriminals seeking to harvest login credentials for further exploitation or sale on the dark web.
Hackers are infiltrating trusted software providers to insert malicious code that infects thousands of end users downstream. The infamous SolarWinds breach is an example of how a single vulnerability in third-party software can have catastrophic consequences, compromising multiple organizations simultaneously.

Artikel Terkait Cyber Security
Cybersecurity is a term that refers to a set of technologies, processes, and practices designed to protect networks, devices, programs, and data from attack, corruption or unauthorized access. Cyber security can also be referred to as information technology security.
Cybersecurity is one of the important things that all companies from various industrial fields must pay attention to. Nowadays, more and more cyberattacks are targeting corporate systems or networks and illegally taking sensitive and valuable data from them. Without a strong security strategy, companies cannot defend themselves, thus they become easy targets for cybercriminals/hackers.
Cyberattacks can affect every company regardless of its size. When companies are unable to protect their business from cyberattacks, they would be at risk of experiencing various losses ranging from financial losses, decreased productivity, reputation damage, legal liability (sanctions/fines), and problems with further business continuity.
Companies need to take a layered approach to cybersecurity for defense, surveillance, and repair. In addition, companies also need to provide training to their employees or human resources on cybersecurity best practices.
Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Test refers to the process of identifying security risks or vulnerabilities that exist in computer networks, systems, applications, or other parts of the IT ecosystem. This process can give companies insight into what vulnerabilities hackers can exploit. This way, companies can quickly roll out fixes by patching the riskiest vulnerabilities or weaknesses before hackers can exploit them.
In Blackbox pentesting, the tester only uses the URL information and has no prior knowledge of the system. The tester simulates an external hacker trying to exploit the system from the outside without any technical details. In Greybox pentesting, the tester has limited access to certain information, such as documentation or user accounts with restricted privileges, which facilitates the identification of security vulnerabilities without having full knowledge of the entire system. With either method, you will still receive a pentest report and improvement recommendations.
Both methods are equally effective, but they differ in the approach and perspective of the testing. Greybox pentesting evaluates security from a semi-internal viewpoint, where some information might already be known to outsiders or users with restricted access. On the other hand, Blackbox pentesting simulates attacks from an external perspective with no access or knowledge, providing a more realistic representation of a cyberattack by an unknown entity.
Please consult with our team to discuss your specific needs. We offer a variety of pentesting services, including Blackbox, Greybox, and Whitebox testing. Additionally, for a more straightforward solution, we can provide Vulnerability Assessment (VA) services. VA involves using automated tools to scan systems, identify vulnerabilities such as misconfigurations, missing security patches, or outdated software, and provide remediation recommendations. The difference between VA and pentesting lies in the depth of vulnerability findings. With VA, you will receive a general overview of the vulnerabilities in your system or digital assets.
We can assist in testing your system or website and identifying security vulnerabilities through penetration testing (pentest). It’s important to note that pentesting is different from digital forensics. Pentesting focuses on prevention by testing weaknesses in the system, while digital forensics is concerned with post-incident investigation to trace the source and impact of an attack.
Through pentesting, we will provide improvement recommendations that can serve as a guide to prevent further ransomware attacks. Additionally, ransomware attacks can occur when employees inadvertently click on phishing links in emails or similar communication channels. To mitigate this risk, LOGIQUE offers phishing simulation services that can assess employees' awareness and vigilance regarding cybersecurity.
Phishing is a type of fraud where cybercriminals will impersonate a trusted person or institution to trick targets into sharing sensitive information, opening malicious links, or sending them money. This type of cyberattack can pose many risks to companies such as:
Managed Detection and Response (MDR) is a cybersecurity service that we provide to monitor, detect, and respond to active threats in your company's IT ecosystem. This service will provide a non-stop protection for your business from various cyber threats.
Basically, the MDR service will remotely monitor, detect, and respond to threats detected within your company. This service will use a combination of automated security tools and human skills to monitor your network.
ISO 27001 is an international standard for information security management. This standard helps businesses to properly establish, manage, implement, monitor, and maintain an information security management system. ISO 27001 certification is required by all industries to ensure that companies are able to identify and manage risk in an effective, consistent, and measurable manner.
Currently, LOGIQUE does not hold ISO 27001 or BSSN certification and is in the process of preparing to obtain these certifications. However, we have extensive experience in conducting penetration testing for clients to meet ISO 27001 requirements and other cybersecurity standards in Indonesia. Additionally, our pentest reports have been accepted by various regulations in Indonesia. Please consult with our expert team regarding these regulations.
