5 REASONS

Why Organizations Should Adopt It

Detects if system meets data security mandates

Showcases high priority assets

Envisions risk routes into the company

Helps prioritize budgetary decisions Uncovers lapses in security policies

Detects if system meets data security mandates

Pen testing is mandated by many industry-specific regulations. In the payment card industry, there is a mandate to follow the PCI-DSS regulations and pen testing is mandated in such systems. HIPAA supported applications also need pen tests to be done annually and they require both application and network layer testing.

Envisions risk routes into the company

Penetration testers think differently (Out of the box) and get into your system by some way just like a real attacker would do. This unique testing potentially discovers various vulnerabilities and showcases possible entry routes into the network.

Uncovers lapses in security policies

Most of the organization’s security policies concentrate more on how to prevent and detect attacks on their systems. But, during pen tests, it uncovers possible security lapses in the system and exposes them, even before they cause considerable damage to data.

Helps prioritize budgetary decisions

The results of pen tests and ethical hackers reports evidently show the aspects where the budget needs to be catered towards network and application security. All those factors are duly considered by the IT department while allocating the budget.

Showcases high priority assets

With a preliminary pen testing, it is not possible to secure the entire network security. Only after a wholesome assessment of worst case scenarios, it identifies assets that are at high risk and which needs to be prioritized within the network.
