TETA seeks a qualified service provider to conduct comprehensive penetration testing on its IT infrastructure, including web applications and critical business systems, to identify vulnerabilities and enhance cybersecurity measures.
The Transport Education and Training Authority (TETA) is inviting proposals from experienced service providers to perform a thorough penetration test of its IT infrastructure. This initiative aims to simulate real-world cyberattack scenarios to validate the effectiveness of existing security controls, identify exploitable weaknesses, and ensure compliance with cybersecurity governance frameworks. The testing will encompass TETA's office locations in Cape Town, Durban, Limpopo, and Nelspruit, covering all network infrastructure, systems, and users. Key areas of focus include the Financial Management System, Learning Management System, Payroll System, and Document Management System, among others.
The selected provider will be expected to deliver a detailed technical report outlining findings, risk ratings, and actionable remediation recommendations. The project will also require a robust methodology aligned with industry standards such as NIST SP 800-115 and OWASP Testing Guide. With a project duration of three weeks, this engagement presents an opportunity for cybersecurity firms with a proven track record in vulnerability assessments and penetration testing to contribute to enhancing TETA's cybersecurity posture.
This tender is suitable for cybersecurity firms and IT service providers with expertise in penetration testing, vulnerability assessments, and a strong understanding of cybersecurity frameworks and compliance requirements.
