THE RISE OF SECURITY TESTING

This paper will outline the increasing recognition of comprehensive security testing as a best practice for addressing issues of organizational risk related to vulnerability assessment and remediation planning, identification and validation of exposure to data breaches, assessment of defense mechanisms and policies, and maintenance of regulatory compliance. It is meant to highlight the rapidly expanding scope of security and compliance issues facing organizations in today’s computing environment -- and the ability of proactive security testing to address those challenges as the most important element of vulnerability assessment in meeting the shifting expectations of management, customers, business partners, shareholders and auditors.
