  1. Why should you choose Certified Penetration Testing?

  2. What is Penetration Testing? A pen test is a set of authorised cyberattacks, used to discover and verify the vulnerabilities and flaws of an information system. Penetration testing is the method of assessing the security of a network or computer system by emulating an attack from a malicious source.

  3. Types of penetration Testing • External Network Penetration Test • Internal Network Penetration Test • Web Application Penetration Test • Social Engineering

  4. What makes Certified Penetration Testing differ from malicious hacking?

  5. Pen tester's social engineering attacks are there to raise awareness and as it is for strictly professional there wouldn’t be security threats to occur. And a Pentester will be having a prior approval professional management to instruct. But for Hackers, their social engineering attacks are there to trick the DMV into divulging sensitive information about their targets. That might be for personal or professional uses. In penetration testing, testers not only, discover vulnerabilities that could be used by attackers but also exploit vulnerabilities, where possible to access what attackers might gain after successful exploitation.

  6. To learn more about penetration testing let us divide its process into 5 steps. • Planning and reconnaissance Test goals are defined, and intelligence is gathered. • Scanning Scanning tools are used to comprehend how a target responds to institutions. • Gaining access Web application attacks are staged to uncover the target’s vulnerabilities.

  7. Maintaining access APTs are limited to see if a vulnerability can be used to maintain access. • Analysis and WAF configuration Results are used to configure WAF settings before testing is run again.

  8. Opportunities that Penetration testing open ups. Penetration testing opens job opportunities in various professions like financial service, health care, and government. The technology sector also hires penetration testers in a large number, as every business sector is involved in the cyberspace, everyone needs to ensure its security. Financial service sectors like banks, credit card companies, payment processors, and brokerages. Also, they are in one of a certified penetration tester as they need to guarantee the safety of their costumer’s data and as a part of their quality assurance commitments.
