Penetration Testing
The purpose of penetration testing is to footprint, enumerate and potentially exploit vulnerabilities in web application(s) and network infrastructure using automated tools and manual mechanisms, above and beyond what simple automated scanning tools can achieve.
Network and application penetration tests are different from vulnerability scans in that penetration tests are more manual. They attempt to actually exploit some of the vulnerabilities identified in scans, and follow practices used by hackers to take advantage of weak security systems or processes.
