A Penetration Test, or Pen Test, is a simulated cyber-attack performed on your network to evaluate the strength of its security protections. A Penetration Test uses the same techniques an attacker would – the very same tools and processes – to identify the vulnerabilities of your network.
You might be thinking: Why does my company need a Pen Test?
Well, you’re connected to the internet, aren’t you? Think of that connection as a big back door made of glass. Without adequate protective controls, anyone can come by, day or night, and peer inside without you knowing. And as we know, some of those people are not very nice.
What’s more, if that big glass door has no lock, those not-so-nice people can simply walk in, snoop around and take anything they want.
Should you be concerned? If you’re interested in protecting your company’s assets, intellectual property, and customers’ data, of course you should. Bottom line: if you don’t discover where the weakness in your defenses are, the bad guys will find them for you.
