Penetration Testing
Penetration Testing, often referred to as “pen testing” or “ethical hacking,” is a cybersecurity practice in which trained professionals simulate real-world cyberattacks to identify vulnerabilities and weaknesses in a system, network, application, or organization’s overall security posture. The primary goal of penetration testing is to uncover potential security risks and help organizations proactively address them before malicious hackers can exploit them.
Penetration testing is a critical component of a comprehensive cybersecurity strategy and should be conducted by skilled and certified professionals who follow ethical guidelines and industry best practices. It complements other security measures, such as vulnerability assessments and security awareness training, to create a robust defense against cyber threats.
