🛠️ What is Pentesting?

Pentesting, or penetration testing, is a simulated cyber attack against your computer system to check for exploitable vulnerabilities. It is an essential process to ensure your web applications are secure from potential threats.

Penetration tests can involve the attempted breaching of any number of application systems, such as application protocol interfaces (APIs), frontend/backend servers, and more, to uncover vulnerabilities that are susceptible to cyber attacks.

Pentesting is typically performed by ethical hackers and security professionals who aim to identify and address security flaws before malicious hackers can exploit them.

The goal of pentesting is to enhance your security posture and ensure robust protection against cyber threats.
