Penetration tests

You can perform penetrations tests under prior consultations in order to inspect and take measures for security vulnerabilities in the cloud environment as well as comply with regulations.

Penetration test guide

NAVER Cloud Platform actively cooperates with penetration tests by customers. This enables more convenient execution of security activities for customers that need to perform penetration tests for various regulatory compliance purposes such as "vulnerability inspection and measures" of the ISMS/ISMS-P (personal information and information security management system certification) certification standards, and "infringement response training and inspection" of the public cloud security certification (CSAP) certification standards.
If you wish to conduct a penetration test for your resources (assets) and services, see the following penetration test policy (terms and conditions) and request an advance consultation. Any penetration test for NAVER Cloud Platform's infrastructure and all components requires a prior agreement with the company. Penetration testing without the agreement may result in blocked or suspended customer accounts without notice. Penetration testing for other customers' resources is not available.
