The rise in cyber-attacks and data breaches has led to an increased need for organizations to secure their systems and networks from malicious attackers. One of the most effective ways to assess the security of a system or network is through penetration testing. Penetration testing, also known as pen testing, is a process of evaluating the security of a system or network by simulating an attack from a malicious outsider or insider. The goal of a penetration test is to identify vulnerabilities that could be exploited by attackers and to provide recommendations to improve the security posture of the system.
