What is Penetration Testing?
Penetration testing is a proactive and controlled cybersecurity assessment aimed at identifying vulnerabilities within a system, network, or application.
This process involves simulating potential attack scenarios to exploit weaknesses and security gaps that malicious actors could exploit.
By mimicking the tactics, techniques, and procedures employed by real attackers, penetration testing helps organizations uncover and address security vulnerabilities before they can be leveraged for malicious purposes.
This iterative process provides valuable insights into the overall security posture, enabling organizations to fortify their defenses and enhance their ability to withstand cyber threats.
