If You Want to Be a Pen Tester, You MUST Watch This!

Penetration testers, often known as pen testers, simulate attacks on a company's computer systems and networks.
These vulnerability assessments and tests aid in identifying security issues before hackers or bad actors may exploit them.
Often, a career as a pen tester begins with an entry-level cybersecurity role. And soft skills like collaborating with developers, speaking and presenting the results to executives are a crucial part of the role.
In this video, we'll go over what penetration testers perform, why this in-demand cybersecurity job could be right for you, and how to get started.
As a penetration tester, you will undertake ethical exploitation of a company's current digital systems in a proactive, offensive role in cybersecurity. These tests may use a range of hacking tools and methods to identify vulnerabilities that hackers may exploit. Throughout the procedure, you will meticulously record your activities and compile a report detailing what you did and how effective you were in breaking security standards.
Some tasks include:
Test apps, network devices, and cloud infrastructures
Create and execute simulated social engineering campaigns
Investigate and test various forms of hacks
Create penetration testing methodology
Examine code for security flaws
Reverse engineering
Document security and compliance
Automate testing approaches
Prepare technical and executive reports
Present findings to the executive leadership
In addition, pen testers typically perform additional testing to validate security enhancements and patches.
Pen Testing is truly a remarkable cyber security career!
