An automated penetration test is a security assessment that uses specialized tools to detect vulnerabilities across your IT environment efficiently and continuously.
Unlike manual testing, where a security expert (pentester/ethical hacker) simulates attacks to uncover complex or hidden flaws, automated testing quickly identifies common weaknesses, like outdated software, misconfigurations, or weak passwords, while being safe for production systems.
With Patrowl, critical findings are also verified by our in-house pentesters, ensuring accuracy, reducing false positives, and providing actionable results you can trust.
