SIMNJ Roundtable Discussion – Penetration Testing – How Much is Enough?

Penetration testing is one type of ethical or white hat hacking technique that helps security leaders evaluate the effectiveness of their security armor before hackers do.  

With cyberattacks increasingly sophisticated and forever on the rise, it is more important than ever that organizations perform regular penetration testing to identify their exposures, block holes, and ensure that cyber controls are working as intended. 

How much testing is enough and what approaches provide the best results?  

On March 15th at noon, Joseph W. Fisher, President and Founder of Affinity IT Security Services, will host this Zoom session to further discuss the latest strategies in penetration testing.
