Network Penetration Software

Cybersecurity threats are in constant evolution, with attackers increasingly going after weaknesses in perimeter network devices and application security vulnerabilities like SQL Injection and Cross-site Scripting (XSS), one of the best ways for organizations to keep up with the onslaught of security vulnerabilities is through Penetration Testing. Penetration testing, also known as “Pen-Testing” is a process in which a security professional, typically called a penetration tester (pen tester), conducts a series of tests looking for security issues in external networks and web applications. Their findings are usually compiled into a report and sent to development teams to fix vulnerabilities. While manual application testing can help organizations with “point-in-time” security, unfortunately, manual penetration tests are not only expensive and time consuming, but they do not scale well when organizations have several hundreds or even thousands of web applications to test. Fortunately, there are automated penetration testing tools like Acunetix – an automated web vulnerability scanner which allows organizations to scan anywhere from a handful to thousands of web applications quickly, cost effectively and, most importantly, continuously. Moreover, Acunetix also comes with built-in vulnerability management, allowing you to track vulnerabilities from discovery to remediation.
