Emphasizes the importance of risk management, control objectives, and ensuring that IT systems and processes are secure and reliable. Within this context, penetration testing can be an essential tool for identifying vulnerabilities and ensuring the effectiveness of security controls.
Control 20: Specifies that organizations should conduct penetration tests periodically to identify vulnerabilities.
Requirement 11.3 mandates regular penetration testing of network segments and systems where cardholder data is stored, processed, or transmitted.
Requires organizations to have a risk management process, and penetration testing can be a key part of that process to identify vulnerabilities.
Requires regular penetration testing to ensure the security of its network and services.
NIST SP 800-53: Recommends penetration testing as part of its security control assessments.
CMMC Level 3: Penetration testing is implied as part of the requirement to conduct regular security assessments, vulnerability scanning, and remediation efforts. CMMC Level 4 and Level 5: Penetration testing is explicitly mentioned as part of the practices required to ensure robust cybersecurity.
Requires organizations to implement robust security controls to meet these criteria, which often includes penetration testing as a best practice.
Requires financial institutions to protect the privacy and security of consumers' personal information. The act is enforced through several rules, with the Safeguards Rule being the most relevant to cybersecurity practices, including penetration testing.
Requires measures that may involve penetration testing as part of compliance: CIP-005, CIP-007, and CIP-010.
The HIPAA Security Rule requires covered entities to conduct regular assessments of potential risks and vulnerabilities to electronic protected health information (ePHI), which can include penetration testing.
Premarket Submissions for Management of Cybersecurity in Medical Devices (2018) and Postmarket Management of Cybersecurity in Medical Devices (2016)
FISMA mandates federal agencies to develop, document, and implement an information security program to protect their information systems and data. According to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) guidelines, which provide the framework for FISMA compliance, penetration testing is a valuable component of the security assessment process.
Requires public companies to implement controls to ensure the integrity of financial reporting, which can include penetration testing as part of the IT controls.
Article 32 requires the implementation of appropriate technical and organizational measures to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk, which can include regular testing, assessing, and evaluating the effectiveness of security measures, such as penetration testing.
strongly recommends it as a part of a comprehensive cybersecurity strategy. For instance, in their "10 Steps to Cyber Security" guidance, the NCSC highlights the importance of regular testing and assessment of security measures, which includes penetration testing.
Recommends regular vulnerability assessments and penetration testing to ensure compliance with its certification requirements.
organizations adopting PAS 55 may choose to include penetration testing as part of their overall risk management strategy, particularly if their assets include critical information systems that could be vulnerable to cyber-attacks.

Penetration testing, also known as “pen testing,” is a simulated cyberattack conducted by security experts to evaluate the security of your systems, applications, or network. The objective is to identify and address vulnerabilities before attackers can exploit them.
Penetration testing helps companies proactively identify and mitigate security risks, ensuring the protection of sensitive data, compliance with industry regulations, and the overall resilience of their IT infrastructure against cyber threats.
We offer a range of testing services, including:
• Network Penetration Testing: Evaluates your network infrastructure and identifies security weaknesses.
• Application Penetration Testing: Assesses web, mobile, and desktop applications for vulnerabilities.
• API Penetration Testing: Focuses on testing the security of your APIs to prevent unauthorized access or data breaches.
• IoT Penetration Testing: Tests the security of IoT devices, firmware, and communication protocols.
• Cloud Penetration Testing: Evaluates the security of your cloud infrastructure.
• Wireless Penetration Testing: Assesses wireless networks and devices for potential risks.
It’s recommended to perform penetration testing at least once a year or after significant changes, like deploying a new system, making major updates, or experiencing a data breach. Regular testing helps maintain a strong security posture.
A vulnerability scan is an automated assessment that detects potential vulnerabilities, whereas a penetration test is a hands-on, in-depth analysis performed by security experts to actively exploit and evaluate vulnerabilities, providing more comprehensive insights and recommendations.
