Penetration Testing
Maintaining Information Technology Security
What is a Penetration Test?
A penetration test (or “pentest” ) is an authorized attack against your IT systems to identify and exploit their security weaknesses, in order to evaluate the real-world risks they pose to your business.
The goal of a pentest is to proactively uncover your weakest links and identify the extent of damage a real malicious attacker could cause your business.
Who are your adversaries? Who could attack your systems to cause damage?
- Malicious outsiders (i.e. your competitors, hacktivists, nation states, or organized cyber criminals)
- Insiders (i.e. your own employees / ex-employees)
- Your customers , knowingly or unknowingly (through their compromised IT systems)
- Your vendors or business partners, knowingly or unknowingly (through their compromised IT systems)
