The “Shiny Toy” syndrome has officially entered the world of cybersecurity. Many organizations believe that running an automated vulnerability scanner is the same thing as a penetration test.
This is a detrimental guess.
Automated tools are excellent at generating “noise”—thousands of alerts that lack context, empathy, or business logic. In the championship game of enterprise security, a scanner is just a stopwatch; it tells you how fast the problem is growing, but it doesn’t tell you how to stop the blitz.
At SimpliMeta, we’ve productized our years of elite hacking experience into SimpliProbed—a service-led penetration testing sub-product designed to lead you to success, not follow you to failure.
