Penetration testing (pen testing) minangka authorized, simulated attacking kanggo nemokake exploitable vulnerabilities sadurunge real attackers — ethical hackers sing aktif nyoba break in. Iku nyedhiyakake realistic security assessment beyond automated scanning.
Apa iku pen testing
PENETRATION TESTING = AUTHORIZED simulated attacks on a system to find real, exploitable
vulnerabilities:
→ ethical hackers / security pros actively try to BREAK IN (think and act like attackers)
→ goes beyond automated scanning → finds complex, chained, and logic vulnerabilities
→ AUTHORIZED and scoped (legal, agreed boundaries) — unlike real attacks
→ "How would a real attacker compromise this, and what could they reach?"
