WHAT IS 
PENETRATIO
N  TESTING
A penetration test, also known as a pen test, is a simulated cyber attack 
against your  computer system to check for exploitable vulnerabilities. In 
the context of web  application security, penetration testing is commonly 
used to augment a web  application firewall (WAF).
Pen testing can involve the attempted breaching of any number of 
application systems,  (e.g., application protocol interfaces (APIs), 
frontend/backend servers) to uncover  vulnerabilities, such as unsanitized 
inputs that are susceptible to code injection attacks.

PENETRATION 
TESTING  
External testing METHODS
External penetration tests target the assets of a company that is visible on the internet, e.g., the web 
application  itself, the company website, and email and domain name servers (DNS). The goal is to gain 
access and extract  valuable data.
Internal testing
In an internal test, a tester with access to an application behind its firewall simulates an attack by 
a  malicious insider. This isn’t necessarily simulating a rogue employee. A common starting scenario 
can be  an employee whose credentials were stolen due to a phishing attack.
Blind testing
In a blind test, a tester is only given the name of the enterprise that’s being targeted. This 
gives  security personnel a real-time look into how an actual application assault would take 
place.
