Many cybersecurity audits now ask whether penetration testing is conducted and how vulnerabilities are detected and tracked. These questions ask IT teams to consider how frequently security is tested from the outside via penetration testing and from the inside via vulnerability testing. File servers.

The internet of things (IoT), operations technology (OT), and the industrial internet of things (IIoT) also now connect to networks. Often auditing will be performed through the review of networking logs, but penetration testing and vulnerability scanning can also be used to check for proper implementation and configuration.

Penetration testing and vulnerability scanning should be used to test proper implementation and configuration. Similarly, spoofed domain name system (DNS) and IP addresses can redirect users from legitimate connections to dangerous and malicious websites. connections to IoT, OT, and rogue wi-fi routers.

DDoS: Overwhelming the Network. In the age-old denial of service (DDoS) attack, a fleet of attacker devices can overwhelm an organization’s web server, thus blocking access to legitimate users. More robust security for Domain Name Systems (DNS). Security Paradigms: Traditional Networks vs. Blockchains. Types of Endpoints Matter.
