Penetration Testing

Penetration testing, or "pen testing," is the practice of simulating cyber attacks on computer systems and networks to identify vulnerabilities and weaknesses.

Penetration testing, or "pen testing," is a critical process in ensuring the security of Internet of Things (IoT) devices and networks. It involves simulating cyber attacks on IoT systems and networks to identify vulnerabilities and weaknesses, which helps organizations to better understand their security posture and improve their security measures.Penetration testing for IoT involves specialized security controls and technologies to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information. The process includes identifying potential attack surfaces, conducting vulnerability scans, and attempting to exploit identified weaknesses to gain unauthorized access or perform malicious activities.
