00:00:00,300 --> 00:00:07,530
Let's discuss about the term vulnerabilities and penetration testing, you will hear these words many

2
00:00:07,530 --> 00:00:09,180
times in upcoming videos.

3
00:00:09,390 --> 00:00:12,310
I don't want you guys to get confused at that time.

4
00:00:12,330 --> 00:00:14,280
That's why we are discussing these terms.

5
00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:18,090
First of all, we will discuss computer vulnerability.

6
00:00:18,420 --> 00:00:24,820
A computer vulnerability is a cybersecurity term that referred to a defect in our system that can leave

7
00:00:24,820 --> 00:00:26,700
a system open to attack.

8
00:00:27,510 --> 00:00:34,350
This vulnerability could also refer to any type of weakness, presenting a computer itself in a state

9
00:00:34,350 --> 00:00:40,910
of procedure or in anything that allows the information security to be exposed to a threat.

10
00:00:41,490 --> 00:00:48,960
It is possible for network staff and computer users to protect computers from vulnerabilities by regularly

11
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:51,480
updating software and security patches.

12
00:00:51,990 --> 00:00:54,720
Nowadays, everyone is using smart phone.

13
00:00:55,140 --> 00:01:01,080
Have you ever noticed why smart phone companies give you security updates on a regular basis in your

14
00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:01,750
smartphone?

15
00:01:02,130 --> 00:01:08,910
So this is the reason they found some vulnerabilities in their system so that they give you a security

16
00:01:08,910 --> 00:01:10,840
patch update to fix that bug.

17
00:01:11,340 --> 00:01:18,620
Now we will discuss penetration testing, penetration testing, also called SBN testing or ethical hacking.

18
00:01:18,870 --> 00:01:25,740
It is the practice of testing a computer system, network or web application to find security vulnerabilities

19
00:01:25,890 --> 00:01:27,870
that an attacker could exploit.

20
00:01:28,350 --> 00:01:34,040
Penetration testing can be automated with software applications or performed manually.

21
00:01:34,050 --> 00:01:39,900
Also, the main objective of penetration testing is to identify security weaknesses.

22
00:01:40,230 --> 00:01:45,450
Penetration testing can also be used to test an organization's security policy.
