What is the difference between White Box, Grey Box and Black Box for a network?
White Box provides access to network diagrams and configurations (most comprehensive, ideal before ISO certification). Grey Box simulates an employee or contractor with partial VPN access (most balanced for SMEs). Black Box tests from the outside with no prior knowledge, like a real attacker. Bexxo recommends Grey Box as the standard for SMEs.

What services does Bexxo offer to SMEs?
Bexxo offers 5 service categories: (1) Web and network security audits (ISO 27001, NIST CSF); (2) Penetration tests; (3) Vulnerability monitoring via CVE Find, integrating MITRE, NVD and CISA KEV data; (4) Phishing simulation via PhishTrainer, a Swiss software with client-side encryption; (5) Consulting and nFADP compliance. Our audits detect an average of 12 to 15 critical vulnerabilities per SME.
Why is the corporate network exposed to cyberattacks?
The corporate network is the primary target for attackers: it provides access to all systems, data and internal communications. Three factors increase SMEs' exposure:
- Long detection time — the average time to detect a breach is 204 days (IBM Cost of a Data Breach 2024), giving attackers time to exfiltrate data.
- Default configurations — firewalls, routers and switches delivered with non-hardened settings represent exploitable entry points.
- Uncontrolled remote access — VPN, remote working and partner access expand the attack surface without always being adequately secured.
