What Is Continuous Penetration Testing?
Cyber penetration testing (pentesting) involves simulating real-world cyberattacks to identify vulnerabilities and assess the effectiveness of an organization’s security controls. This proactive approach helps businesses understand potential risks and implement remediation strategies to protect sensitive data. Professionals such as cybersecurity experts, IT administrators, risk management professionals, and compliance officers need to be knowledgeable about penetration testing to enhance their organization’s security posture and safeguard against potential threats.
Why Engage in Continuous Penetration Testing?
Strategize by Severity
There’s no such thing as a 100% impenetrable network. Ideally, 100% of your network’s vulnerabilities are not severe. By categorizing these vulnerabilities by severity, it gives leadership peace of mind regarding cyber resiliency.
Visually Identify Vulnerabilities
Vulnerabilities can exist in many forms across your network. Some vulnerabilities can be due to uninstalled software patches, others because of device configurations. A graphical view helps you mobilize remediation quickly.
Confirm Compliance
Pentesting is critical for FFIEC, NIST, SOC2, ISO27001, and more. Continuous pentesting keeps risk and compliance managers on the right side of an audit, examination, or round of due diligence.
