About this document
Understanding Penetration Testing Basics by Sunil Attri is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Penetration testing is a method of testing software systems for security weaknesses by attempting to break into the system. It involves compiling a list of vulnerabilities, devising penetration tests to attack the system from inside and outside the network, and fixing issues until unauthorized access is no longer possible. Penetration testing is performed by security consultants and network specialists using both scanning tools to find vulnerabilities and attacking tools to exploit weaknesses.
