What is Penetration Testing?
A measure of the operational effectiveness of security controls, penetration testing demonstrates what a malicious individual could accomplish. Performed under controlled conditions, penetration testing — also called pen testing — identifies vulnerabilities that can be leveraged by an attacker to gain access, and provides detailed recommendations to proactively implement countermeasures to prevent real world exploitation of identified vulnerabilities. Penetration testing services demonstrate what a malicious individual could accomplish while simultaneously measuring the effectiveness of existing security controls.
Why conduct Penetration Testing?
- Baseline external and internal pen testing to validate the effectiveness of security controls
- Recurring testing programs to minimize zero-day threats
