What is Continuous Attack Surface Penetration Testing or CASPT? Continuous Penetration Testing or Continuous Attack Surface Penetration Testing (CASPT) is an advanced security practice that involves the continuous, automated, and ongoing penetration testing services of an organization's digital assets to identify and mitigate security vulnerabilities. CASPT is designed for enterprises with an evolving attack surface where periodic pentesting is no longer sufficient. Unlike traditional penetration testing, which is often performed annually or semi-annually, CASPT is an ongoing process that integrates directly into the software development lifecycle (SDLC), ensuring that vulnerabilities are discovered and addressed in real-time or near-real-time. CASPT is a proactive security measure designed to stay ahead of potential attackers by continuously evaluating the security posture of an organization. It enables security teams to identify critical entry points that could be exploited by attackers, validate the effectiveness of existing security controls, and ensure that any newly introduced code or infrastructure changes do not introduce new vulnerabilities. Users can run baseline tests to share changes or new updates across assets and associated vulnerabilities providing a roadmap for pentesting teams as soon as changes are detected. What Continuous Attack Surface Penetration Testing is Not While CASPT shares similarities with traditional penetration testing, there are distinct…Read More
