The growth of Internet of Things (IoT) devices has brought new entry points for attackers. Many of these systems, such as medical wearables, factory controllers, and connected vehicles, operate without strict access controls or regular software updates.  IoT penetration testing focuses on finding weak spots in how these devices communicate, store data, and interact with…

As more companies move to the cloud, keeping those environments secure becomes a priority.  Cloud penetration testing is a way to simulate real-world attacks and spot weaknesses in cloud setups like misconfigured storage, exposed APIs, or overly broad permissions.  It focuses on the areas you control, since cloud providers and users share responsibility for security.…

Mobile applications are frequent targets for attackers who seek out security flaws to exploit sensitive user data, compromise device integrity, or gain unauthorized access. Mobile application penetration testing focuses on finding these weaknesses before real attackers do. This blog introduces mobile application penetration testing. You’ll get a clear understanding of how this testing works, what…

If you’re getting started with API Penetration Testing, it’s critical to understand not just how APIs work but also how they break. APIs handle sensitive data, enforce permissions, and link services, which makes them a frequent target for attackers. Testing them the way an attacker would is the only way to find the weak points…

Physical penetration testing exposes weaknesses that digital security measures often miss. This article explains what physical penetration testers examine, why these tests are essential, and how to apply the findings effectively. Updates will follow as new tactics and standards develop. Strong firewalls and cybersecurity tools do not protect against a weak door lock or an…

Achieving SOC 2 compliance in 2025 has shifted from a nice-to-have to a baseline requirement for technology companies. Auditors now demand proof that security controls function under real conditions, not just exist in policy documents. This article explains what SOC 2 expects from penetration testing in 2025. If you are managing security or compliance, you…

Social Engineering Penetration Testing is a social engineering assessment that evaluates how vulnerable an organization’s personnel are to manipulation. Instead of targeting a computer system or software, this form of security testing focuses on people, examining how easily attackers could exploit human behaviour to gain access to confidential information or secure areas. According to the…

Wireless Penetration Testing is a security assessment method that targets wireless networks and devices. It simulates attacks against Wi-Fi infrastructures to identify misconfigurations, vulnerabilities, or insecure implementations. The goal is to expose flaws in how wireless technologies are set up or protected so they can be fixed before actual attackers take advantage. Key Takeaways Types…

Over 90% of cyber attacks begin with phishing or other client-side tactics that target employees directly. Attackers exploit everyday tools such as email clients, browsers, and document readers to gain initial access. Client-side penetration testing focuses on these high-risk entry points, helping organizations find and fix vulnerabilities before they’re used in real attacks. Key Takeaways…

Web application penetration testing is a security assessment that simulates attacks on a web application to find vulnerabilities before malicious actors do. It targets flaws like injection points, broken authentication, insecure configurations, and exposed sensitive data.  Web applications are a top target for attackers. According to the 2023 Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report, web applications…
