Automated Penetration Testing

David Friede from Neo Cyber-security participates in Risk Roundup to discuss Automated Penetration Testing. Automated Penetration Testing Cyber-security vulnerabilities are a growing global problem. As the security attacks grow rapidly in both frequency and sophistication in cyberspace, it poses a critical threat to individuals and entities across nations: its government, industries, organizations, and academia (NGIOA). One of the biggest challenges in cyber-security today is determining whether the tools and techniques we have in place, are giving us the level of security we need across NGIOA in cyberspace, geospace, and space (CGS). If we, that is individuals and entities across NGIOA are to protect our information in all formats, it’s important that we get informed about “security vulnerabilities” in our computer and network ecosystem. But how to do that? Perhaps through penetration testing. There are many who believe that penetration testing, commonly known as pen-testing is perhaps an answer to the complex security vulnerabilities from cyberspace. Automated penetration testing plays an important role in the security community as these tools can quickly evaluate the security of systems, networks, and applications against a wide variety of security threats in cyberspace and from cyberspace. It is time to take a closer look at automated penetration testing tools! For more please watch the Risk Roundup Webcast or hear the Risk Roundup Podcast About the Guest David Friede from Neo Cybersecurity is passionate about network security and believes that cybercrime will become one of the most important issues facing our increasingly interconnected societies. Hacking is modern warfare, with millions of people affected. Companies need to make security a priority and direct resources to counteract this new brand of terrorism. His organization, Neo Cyber Security believes that thorough and frequent penetration testing is the only way to truly deter cybercriminals. Neo offers a free VM tool for clients and managed service providers to perform a simulated hacking event on their networks as often as they desire and address vulnerabilities before they are exploited.
