With the rising prevalence of cybercrime, there is a growing need for penetration testing in organizations. This legitimate form of cyberattack allows organizations to proactively assess their network and system security, helping them avoid financial losses, comply with security laws, and address vulnerabilities in both their on-site and remote IT infrastructures. It is conducted more often in organizations with massive IT infrastructures that process vast business assets and financial data. The most common testing offered by information security vendors is black-box, white-box, and grey-box penetration testing. The level of access and knowledge provided to the Penetration Tester at the beginning of the project is used to categorize these penetration testing assignments. Table of Contents
