Why Penetration Testing is Important?
Pen testing aims to identify vulnerabilities and risks in the system which may impact the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the data by emulating a real DDoS attack. In this approach, the organization employs security analysts who work as hackers (ethical hackers) to identify the uncovered security loopholes. The only thing that separates a penetration tester from an attacker is permission. A pen tester will always have consent from the owner of the computing resources that are being tested and will be accountable to provide a report.

It is important for the pen-testers to keep comprehen
