Penetration testing – External Testing External penetration testing, often referred to as external or external network penetration testing, focuses on assessing the security of an organization's external-facing systems, networks, and applications. The goal is to identify vulnerabilities that malicious actors could exploit to gain unauthorized access, disrupt services, or compromise sensitive information, from the outside.

Penetration testing – Internal Testing Internal penetration testing focuses on evaluating the security of an organization's internal network, systems, and applications. Unlike external penetration testing, which assesses external-facing assets, internal penetration testing simulates attacks that could occur from within the organization's network. The goal is to identify vulnerabilities that could be exploited by an insider or an external threat actor who has gained access to the internal network.
