Penetration testing, or pen testing, is a widely used testing strategy to find, investigate and remediate found vulnerabilities in your network or applications. Pen testers use the same tactics, techniques and procedures (TTPs) as cyber adversaries to simulate a genuine attack against your organization.
With a routine pen testing cadence, your organization can reduce cyber risk by finding vulnerabilities and addressing them before cybercriminals can compromise your infrastructure, systems, applications or personnel.
Kroll has built the foundation and experience needed to handle large-scale, complex penetration testing engagements, including for the world’s top companies in industries from media and entertainment to critical infrastructure.
We’ve developed a sophisticated approach that includes a comprehensive, in-house team dedicated to providing you with the structure and management background needed to scale and adapt your pen testing program based on your business drivers.
Kroll also boasts a very unique pen testing advantage: the insights provided by our world-class incident response practice, which feed our certified cyber experts the information they need to test against the exploits attackers are executing today.
Organizations with a high level of security maturity should, ideally, regularly perform both penetration testing and red teaming exercises.
Penetration testing focuses on exploiting specific vulnerabilities at a network or application level.
Red teaming goes further, providing a holistic assessment of how your people, processes and technology work together to form an effective defense against threats like ransomware and social engineering.

Agile pen testing, or continuous pen testing, is a method for integrating regular testing into your software development lifecycle (SDLC), rather than testing at infrequent points in time.
Whereas, traditional pen testing impacts product release cycles, Agile pen testing works with your release schedule to ensure that new features are secure and don’t translate into risk for your customers.
