    Penetration Testing vs. Vulnerability Scanning: Which Do You Need?

    Answer: Both 

    Identifying vulnerabilities is the first step in keeping your organization safe from cyber threats—but how you do it matters.

    Vulnerability scanning is an automated process that regularly checks for common issues like outdated software, missing patches, and misconfigurations. It gives you ongoing visibility into your network's weaknesses, so you can address them before they become a problem.

    Penetration testing, on the other hand, simulates real-world attacks to see how your defenses hold up. By manually testing your systems, you gain insights into how a hacker might exploit vulnerabilities and where your security needs to be strengthened.

    Both are critical, but they serve different purposes. Vulnerability scans help you catch low-hanging fruit, while penetration tests reveal deeper issues that could lead to serious breaches.
