Penetration Testing

Penetration testing is part of the security testing process to automate and discover security issues. Once the threats and vulnerabilities have been evaluated, the penetration testing procedure addresses the risks identified through the environment.

How It Works

Penetration testing can be broken down into multiple phases like planning and reconnaissance, scanning, gaining access, exploitation, evidence collection, and report generation. The penetration testing procedures will vary depending on the organization.

Steps in Penetration Testing

MAST

Manual Application Security Testing is done over binary to check for business logic flaws and deep-dive into issues detected in the Vulnerability Assessment phase. It is more elaborate form of testing and takes more time to conclude.

Penetration Testing

Penetration Testing attempts to identify insecure business logic, security setting vulnerabilities, or other weaknesses that a threat actor could exploit. Transmission of unencrypted passwords, password reuse. Penetration tests do not need to be conducted as often as vulnerability assessments but should be repeated on a regular basis.
