From containerized workloads to microservice architectures, developers are rapidly adopting new technology that allows organizations to scale their products at unprecedented rates. In order to make sense of these complex deployments, many teams are abstracting applications away from the environments in which they run. Because of this trade-off, developers and security teams lose the access to the unified context from infrastructure to application needed to fully secure their services.

Testing is therefore a critical aspect of creating robust applications. It’s what ensures the developed software meets the desired quality expectations. This blog examines one of the vital testing methods: white box penetration testing.
