Snapshot-in-time penetration tests are limited in scope, limited by human testers, limited by time, and limited by findings based on what the testers are presented with during the testing period. The results have a very short shelf life with little insight into how to properly prioritize and correct the findings. Continuous Security Testing allows an organization to understand their security posture every day, discover new issues immediately, and prioritize findings based on the business's needs. Finally, Continuous Security Testing allows an organization to immediately validate remediation.

Key learning objectives:

• The limitations of penetration tests
• The importance of continually testing your security settings, controls, and team
• How to quickly implement a continuous security testing program
