pentesting

Pentesting, or penetration testing, is a cybersecurity practice where experts simulate cyberattacks on a computer system, network, or application to identify vulnerabilities. The goal is to find and fix security weaknesses before malicious hackers can exploit them. Think of it like a security audit for digital assets—testing defenses to ensure they are strong enough to protect sensitive data and operations. Pentesting helps organizations improve their security posture by proactively uncovering and addressing potential entry points for cyber threats.
