What is Network Penetration Testing?

A penetration test means evaluating IT vulnerabilities that could be exploited by hackers in an organization’s applications, operating systems, and devices. This assessment is essential for the cybersecurity strategy as you identify but you also validate security defenses.

  

Why is Automated Penetration Testing Important?

– Risk assessment:

Identify the riskiest channels in your business.

 

– Regulations and Compliance

Necessary for activities that need to comply with certain laws

 

– Competition

Getting hacked has serious consequences especially when all your data are shared with your competitors.

 

 

 

What are the 5 Stages of the Penetration Test?

1. Planning

Determining the goals that we want to achieve at the end of the testing (Systems, test types, responsibilities, etc)

 

2. Discovery

Discovering information and understanding current vulnerabilities.

Info to search for: IP addresses, network domains, names, job titles.

 

3. Penetration Attempt

Deciding what attacks will be made and discovering the biggest and the most critical threats, but also the steps that are needed to defend them.

 

 

 4. Reporting

Creating a detailed report that contains the findings of all the steps including systems’ weaknesses, threats, recommendations.

 

5. Remediation

Cleaning any footprint that is left from the testing, and starting the remedy. Also, adding additional protection controls if needed.
