Pen testing techniques

["Atif Azim" <azim.atif () gmail com>]

Hello,
I am new to pen testing and am currently involved in doing an external
pen test for one of our clients.We are doing it through Core
Impact.Reconnaisance showed only port 80 as open and the web server
running IIS 6.0.Core Impact did not find any vulnerabilities in the
server and hence was unable to penetrate.The web application was also
tested for SQL Injection and PHP remote file inclusion and did not
find any vulnerabilities there either.

My question is what else can we do besides relying on Core Impact for
this pen test.And what impression can a client get if we say to them
that there are no vulnerabilites in your network or web app.Its
dificult to digest something like that for a security specialist that
everythings alright.

Looking forward to some great views.Thanks.

Regards,
Atif Azim
