About the Webinar
This virtual webinar, led by a Senior Solution Specialist, addresses the transition from periodic network penetration testing to continuous security assurance. The session explores why traditional annual or biannual pentesting schedules fail to keep pace with the rate of change in enterprise IT environments, leaving organizations exposed to vulnerabilities between assessments.
Insights from 10,000 Penetration Tests
A central component of the webinar is the analysis of data from 10,000 penetration tests. This research identifies the most common critical findings across enterprise networks and highlights patterns in vulnerability exploitation. The session clarifies that the absence of critical findings in a single assessment does not indicate ongoing security, given how quickly network configurations and threat landscapes evolve.
Communicating Risk to Executive Boards
The webinar provides guidance on translating technical penetration testing results into business terms that resonate with board-level stakeholders. Attendees will learn three specific measures for presenting network security posture to executives, helping bridge the gap between security teams and organizational leadership.
Who Should Attend
The session is intended for IT leaders and security professionals responsible for network security in medium to large organizations. This includes CISOs, IT managers, security analysts and network administrators seeking to move beyond static annual assessments toward continuous security validation.
