Penetration Testing Planning and Scoping

This Penetration Testing Planning and Scoping training covers how to decide what networks, applications, databases, accounts, people, controls, and assets will be targeted in a given penetration test and define them for the testers. A penetration test is a good way to double-check your network's security posture but if you're not careful, you can waste a lot of time and money when you do it. You can include networks or devices you're not interested in, or you can check for vulnerabilities you've already identified or that you know aren't valid.
