It is no secret that in order to keep the IT environment fully operational, it is necessary to use methods that will ensure its maximum security – which in many cases may turn out to be a real challenge for many organizations and enterprises. A thorough verification of the effectiveness of the installed solutions is guaranteed by penetration tests, also known as pentests. In the article below, you will learn how to take care of the security of your website, store or application by conducting penetration tests, which are designed to find all errors and vulnerabilities, thanks to which we can protect ourselves against hacking and data theft.
Thanks to the pentests, it is possible to test the security measures in the event of a threat of hacker attacks. These tests relate directly to the security of the IT infrastructure whose application or network resources are analyzed for inaccuracies, gaps and errors detected in the applied security measures. Pentests also determine the degree of vulnerability of security measures to possible cyber threats.

Penetration tests are nothing more than orchestrated or simulated hacker attacks aimed directly at the IT resources of a given organization. They determine the actual security condition of a given facility. Their goal is to realistically assess the level of security of data resources, such as networks, all kinds of applications such as mobile applications, web applications, desktop applications as well as the entire IT infrastructure.
