A controlled attack that exposes vulnerabilities in systems.
In a penetration test, specialised testers attempt to infiltrate systems using the methods of real attackers in order to identify vulnerabilities. A distinction is made between Black-, Grey- and White-Box tests as well as internal and external tests, depending on the level of information available. The result is a report containing identified vulnerabilities and recommendations, which often serves as the basis for remediation measures. Regular pentests are required by many security standards and regulatory frameworks.
For service providers, pentests are a frequent audit point in security questionnaires: clients want to know whether testing is carried out regularly, by whom, and how the results are handled. The full report is rarely shared, but a summary and statements on the methodology usually are. This information has to be formulated anew for every inquiry. Those who keep the key statements about their pentests structured and readily available can answer such questions quickly and without having to consult the security team every time.
With Tendry, you keep the key statements and evidence relating to your penetration tests readily available as verified knowledge. This allows you to answer questions about your testing activities immediately and consistently, without having to share the full report.
