Notice: Function _load_textdomain_just_in_time was called incorrectly. Translation loading for the wordpress-seo domain was triggered too early. This is usually an indicator for some code in the plugin or theme running too early. Translations should be loaded at the init action or later. Please see Debugging in WordPress for more information.

The relevance of network penetration testing<\/strong><\/a> comes from the fact that most of the systems and devices are connected to a network for daily functioning, especially if the device is connected to the internet. In a network penetration testing procedure, the ethical hacking team is able to visualize how these devices connect to any network, how the network works in general, and if there are any flaws in these mechanisms. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With effective network pentesting, the firm is able to identify the existing flaws in the network security barriers, evaluate the responses to a potential hacking attempt, and map out the overall security posture. As technology<\/a> and the needs of the customer progresses, hackers adopt the latest methods to utilize security vulnerabilities in the operating system or the network. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What are the different kinds of network penetration testing techniques?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Security vulnerabilities in one\u2019s network could lead to the loss of sensitive data, violation of compliance standards, and the eventual loss of customer trust. Some of the key vulnerabilities discovered in a typical network pentest include outdated versions of software, misconfigured firewalls, and SQLi and social engineering attack possibilities. Here are a few types of network pentesting techniques that allow the ethical hacking team to explore and identify vulnerabilities within the network. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
