Network Penetration Testing aids in the prevention of data breaches. Much like a fire drill, the process prepares the application against data breaches by identifying the vulnerabilities beforehand.
Network Penetration Testing is a technique that identifies security vulnerabilities in the application by applying different malicious processes to break network security. It is one of the best practices in cyber security that ensures your application is properly secured and threats are appropriately handled. We at Precise Testing Solution have performed extensive tests to help organizations to unearth any hidden security vulnerabilities. Our experts also make recommendations to fix the issues in the network that have been discovered during the network penetration testing. At the end of the network security testing process, we hand out the resorts that list the issues and recommendations.
A standard Network Penetration Testing process is essential for the proper working and reliability of an application because –

In this step, the network security professionals emulate the hackers with the aim to find potential vulnerabilities in the system. The step has both a technical and social aspect. In the technical aspect, the network professionals try to look for weaknesses in the network, peripherals, ports, etc. In the social aspect, social engineering loopholes like phishing scams are discovered.
In this phase, the testers make use of the information gathered in the Reconnaissance phase that is used to run tests which in turn identify issues.
Information obtained from the Discovery Phase is used to test exploits in the network devices and IT systems.
