What is an Internet Attack and Penetration Testing for the Retail Industry?
Attack and Penetration testing is also known as Ethical Hacking. From the perspective of an attacker outside of your retail organization, ethical hackers work to find and exploit known and unknown vulnerabilities. On average, Internet attack and penetration testing finds at least three times as many vulnerabilities that can affect your retail company than vulnerability scans do.
Why do Internet Attack and Penetration Testing for Retail?
For many industries like retail, external Internet attack and penetration testing is required as part of PCI Compliance regulations. It is easier than ever to compromise an Internet host. In fact, new exploits are being released every day and last year public exploit release was at a record high. An external attack and penetration assessment will identify areas of vulnerability and offer advice for strengthening your retail business' data security.
