Web app penetration testing identifies the ever-growing list of network vulnerabilities so that businesses can take the appropriate steps to patch any flaws and prevent threats to their information.Penetration testing (or pen testing) is a security exercise where a cyber-security expert attempts to find and exploit vulnerabilities in a computer system. The purpose of this simulated attack is to identify any weak spots in a system's defenses which attackers could take advantage of.
