Following the research, many insights emerged about the need for a simple and accessible design that will allow Client’s senior management and the cyber security teams to easily understand the test results and what is required to protect the systems from cyber threats.

Pain Points

New threats

Difficulty in coping with rapid development of cyber threats to operational systems

Operational Disruptions

Concern of critical system disruptions during penetration testing.

Financial loss

Need of a large team of experts for comprehensive checks

Accuracy and consistency

Quality of penetration tests changes according to the tester skills, may lead to missing critical vulnerabilities

Data Presentation

Difficulty in making security gaps accessible to senior management


Limited resources

Time limits make it difficult to perform a thorough inspection of all systems, which leads to security gaps
