With penetration testing being the most common practice for validation, Cyber Security Hub and Pcysys recently decided to field a survey to capture enterprise pentesting practices from cybersecurity project influencers and decision makers. Data has been collected from enterprises that currently conduct penetration testing. The findings are brought to you in their raw format for you to draw your own conclusions.
