Penetration Testing
摘要
Penetration testing, often abbreviated as pen testing, is a critical component of a comprehensive cybersecurity strategy. This process involves evaluating the security of an organization's IT infrastructure by simulating attacks from malicious outsiders and insiders. The objective is to identify and exploit system weaknesses, clearly showing the organization's defensive posture. Unlike routine security assessments, penetration testing delves deeper, aiming to mimic the strategies and techniques of actual attackers. Doing so helps organizations understand the potential impact of vulnerabilities and the real-world risks they pose.
