What is Penetration Testing?

A penetration test, or pen test, is a simulated cyber attack on your computer systems, networks, or applications. Our team of ethical hackers, also known as pentesters, will leverage the same tools and techniques that malicious actors might use. However, unlike real-world cyberattacks, pen tests are conducted with your knowledge and consent.

The goal of a pen test is to identify and exploit vulnerabilities in your defenses before cybercriminals do. By proactively uncovering these weaknesses, you can take steps to remediate them and significantly improve your overall security posture.
