Introducing the scope of pentesting
In simple words, penetration testing is used to test the information security measures of a company. Information security measures entail a company's network, database, website, public-facing servers, security policies, and everything else specified by the client. At the end of the day, a pentester must present a detailed report of their findings such as weaknesses, vulnerabilities in the company's infrastructure, and the risk level of particular vulnerabilities, and provide solutions if possible.
