Penetration testing tools are designed to identify vulnerabilities in computer systems and applications by simulating cyberattacks. These tools target known weaknesses and various application components to attempt to breach core systems. Companies use penetration tests to discover new defects and assess the security of communication channels and integrations. Although penetration testing tools are associated with application security and vulnerability management software, they are distinct in their specific function of performing penetration tests. Additionally, several cybersecurity service providers offer specialized penetration testing services.
