Data breaches have been increasing dramatically year over year, and more recently, the number of incidents has increased by 15.1%. This is especially alarming for businesses and organizations that rely on cybersecurity to serve their clients more efficiently and securely.

Partnering with managed cybersecurity services has been an effective solution in keeping hackers at bay.

The Need for Efficient Cyber-Protection

It is crucial to apply preventative measures to stop threats from becoming incidents. One of the preventive measures to employ is penetration testing. Penetration testing is a great means of knowing how hackers penetrate systems and how to stop them before they can succeed.

What Is Penetration Testing for application and product security?

involves breaching your own applications, such as back-end and front-end servers and application protocol interfaces (APIs). This will uncover hidden issues, including misconfigurations and hardware deficiencies that are vulnerable to code injection attacks. With penetration testing, you can patch these vulnerabilities and fine-tune your security policies.

 

Penetration testing is a simulated cyber breach or attack against your networks and systems to pinpoint vulnerabilities. Think of it as getting inside your hacker’s mind and figuring out his top strategies for breaching your network and stealing your data. This will give you the opportunity to address weaknesses before they are exploited by malicious actors.

Benefits of Penetration Testing

Making regular penetration testing a habit for your business has numerous benefits. It allows your organization to find and fill security gaps before a hacker finds them.

7 benefits you may want to keep in mind

1 Cybersecurity system assessment
The first step is to identify which systems need to be tested and the objectives of the test. This helps define the scope of the test and what needs to be accomplished.
2 Initial surveying or reconnaissance
In this phase, the testers gather as much information about the internal system and network as possible.
3 Identification of what’s working
The next step is to identify which security controls your company uses and which of them are effective. The team will also look at your breach history to see if there are any patterns or trends.
4 Initial attack
In this phase, the team will try to “attack” your system for the first time to find any vulnerabilities.
5 Continued discovery
As more vulnerabilities are revealed, the team will continue “attacking” your system to see how far they can get.
6 Outcome Reporting
After the team has gathered all the information, they will present their findings in a report and recommendations on how you can improve your cybersecurity measures.
7 Action plan creation
After evaluating the penetration testing report, you and your team will create an action plan to address the vulnerabilities. This plan will include short-term and long-term measures that need to be taken to improve your system’s security.
