Professional Ethical Hacking and Pen Testing for Cyber Security
Hacking is ethical too! Yes. Ethical hacking is a planned process that involves an authorized attempt to gain unauthorized access to a computer system, application, or data. This is attempted to carry out an ethical hack involving duplicating strategies and actions of malicious attackers. Let us discuss more on this subject. The Penetration Test It is basically a simulated cyber-attack. A penetration test or pen test is carried out against a computer system to check for exploitable vulnerabilities. When it comes to the context of web application security, penetration testing is commonly used to augment a web application firewall. We call it WAF in short. This type of test involves the attempted breaching of application systems. It uncovers vulnerabilities, such as unsensitized inputs that are susceptible to code injection attacks. A number of application systems can be application protocol interfaces or APIs and frontend and backend servers. The main focus of the pe
