Pentera safely performs the actions that a malicious adversary would — reconnaissance, sniffing, spoofing, cracking, (harmless) malware injection, file-less exploitation, post-exploitation, lateral movement and privilege escalation — all the way to data exfiltration. Without requiring agents or pre-installations, the platform gives security teams a complete attack operation view providing a true assessment of their resiliency against real attacks, and prioritizes remediation efforts with a threat-facing perspective. Pentera also applies the latest hacking techniques, including ransomware strains, enabling organizations to focus their resources on remediation of the vulnerabilities that take part in a damaging “kill-chain”. With Pentera, a company can continuously reduce cyber exposure and maintain the highest possible resilience posture by performing validation tests as regularly as needed - either daily, weekly, or monthly. This gives the organization a better grasp not only on security gaps, but also allows them to test the efficiency of their security stack and maintain consistency across the entire organization. Pentera does this by providing an automated security validation platform that gives organizations the remediation roadmap they need to confidently reduce cybersecurity exposure. > > Verdict: Rated **5.0/5** by 2 users.
