 |
|
Penetration tests are valuable for several reasons:
Determining the feasibility of a particular set of attack vectors
Identifying higher-risk vulnerabilities that result from a combination of lower-risk vulnerabilities exploited in a particular sequence.
Identifying vulnerabilities that may be difficult or impossible to detect with automated network or application vulnerability scanning software.
Assessing the magnitude of potential business and operational impacts of successful attacks.
Testing the ability of network defenders to successfully detect and respond to the attacks.
Providing evidence to support increased investments in security personnel and technology.
