Should I have penetration testing done?

Should I have Penetration Testing conducted on my business?

Penetration testing describes the activity we conduct using ethical hacking tools. It refers to testing the ability of a hacker to penetrate a computer, server, website or network and retrieve sensitive information, change settings or install a virus to corrupt the system.

Penetration testing should be conducted on your systems on a regular basis as things like software updates and changes in internet service providers can introduce new vulnerabilities into your system.

The methods used by hackers to penetrate systems also grow increasingly sophisticated and security safeguards that worked in the past may no longer be effective.

Businesses that are in any doubt about the security of their IT systems and networks should take professional advice as soon as possible. ITWiser will give you free advice.
