Читать книгу Penetration Testing For Dummies - Robert Shimonski - Страница 15

You can hire a consultant to conduct a pen test for you or your firm. Consultants are for hire either as independent contractors or as part of firms you can hire. This may save you time and money in the future.

Consultants at times work for firms that specialize in security or provide security services under a contract. This means that they can scan remotely (externally) or come onsite and scan internally and do more intrusive testing. Either way, consultants allow a smaller organization to retain top talent for a reasonable price and still get the services needed to be current and secure. This route also paves the way for those entering into the field of pen testing an opportunity to gain employment through a company or a contract to conduct security services.
