Penetration Testing is a simulated cyber attack on a computer system, network, or web application to identify vulnerabilities that could be exploited by malicious actors. This process involves ethical hackers, often referred to as white hat hackers, who use various tools and techniques to assess the security of the target. The goal is to uncover weaknesses before they can be exploited by real attackers. After conducting the tests, the findings are documented in a report that outlines the vulnerabilities discovered and provides recommendations for improving security. Organizations use this information to strengthen their defenses, ensuring better protection against potential cyber threats.
