tested?”][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]Usually not, but it cannot be completely ruled out. Therefore, penetration tests are ideally carried out in a non-productive but equivalent environment in order to completely minimize the risk of disruption. In practice, this is not always possible, but the Limes experts are used to working in productive environments. The remaining risks are mitigated by appropriate planning, a transparent approach and a focus on communication with the customer.[\/vc_column_text][\/toggle][toggle color=”Extra-Color-1″ heading_tag=”h3″ heading_tag_functionality=”default” title=”Does a penetration test prove that a system is secure?”][nectar_responsive_text inherited_font_style=”default” text_direction=”default”]The result of the penetration test shows the vulnerabilities that could be identified and exploited based on the defined and allocated resources. By applying a risk-based approach, the respective technical results are only valid for a specific point in time. Limes Security therefore maps discovered technical vulnerabilities to the respective supporting process that failed or was insufficiently applied. This enables the vulnerabilities to be remedied at a higher level and thus promotes security in the long term.[\/nectar_responsive_text][\/toggle][toggle color=”Extra-Color-1″ heading_tag=”h3″ heading_tag_functionality=”default” title=”What is the difference between a penetration test and a vulnerability scan?”][nectar_responsive_text inherited_font_style=”default” text_direction=”default”]It is often not clear what the difference is between penetration tests and vulnerability scans. This can lead to a vulnerability scan being sold as a penetration test, which it is not. While vulnerability scanning is usually an automated process and part of an initial phase of penetration testing, penetration testing also involves manual testing steps by experienced experts. This is necessary to create a common context of different vulnerabilities and to cover vulnerability categories that cannot be detected by automated scans at all.[\/nectar_responsive_text][\/toggle][toggle color=”Extra-Color-1″ heading_tag=”h3″ heading_tag_functionality=”default” title=”When is the best time for a penetration test?”][nectar_responsive_text inherited_font_style=”default” text_direction=”default”]Ideally, penetration tests are carried out parallel to the entire life cycle of a system or component, with a different focus being placed on each phase. Penetration tests before the go-live\/release and after major changes are particularly important.[\/nectar_responsive_text][\/toggle][\/toggles][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” row_position_desktop=”default” row_position_tablet=”inherit” row_position_phone=”inherit” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” flex_gap_desktop=”10px” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][nectar_global_section id=”9420″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
