Summary

Penetration testing is often performed by large consultancy groups using a "one-size-fits-all" approach, which can lead to less than ideal results as the assigned personnel may not be the right fit for the project. This approach has become outdated due to changing industry needs and compliance regulations, with 56% of security leaders expressing dissatisfaction with their current penetration tests. Traditional methods are being replaced by crowdsourced security platforms like Bugcrowd, which offer more efficient and effective testing methods, reducing time to launch and delivering higher-value findings per test.
