How Can Penetration Testing Help My Business Avoid Attacks?

What Is a Penetration Test?

A penetration test is an authorized, simulated attack against your company’s IT infrastructure by one of our certified “hackers.” It is intended to identify and exploit vulnerabilities by seeing where a malicious person may access your business and do damage.

The end goal of a penetration test is to improve the overall security of your organization through result-driven insights and recommendations on how you can better protect your business.
