As cyber threats become more sophisticated, attack surfaces continue to expand, and regulations such as NIS2 and DORA raise expectations, organisations are rethinking their approach to penetration testing.
Join LRQA and Simbian for a practical discussion on the future of security validation. We’ll explore why traditional annual penetration testing is no longer enough, how continuous validation is reshaping cyber security strategies, and what organisations should be doing today to prepare for tomorrow’s threats.
Register now to discover what effective penetration testing should look like in the years ahead.
Why attend?
Many organisations still rely on annual penetration tests to demonstrate compliance. But in an environment shaped by cloud adoption, AI-driven threats, and constantly evolving attack surfaces, point-in-time assessments can leave critical gaps.
In this webinar, we’ll discuss:
- Why traditional penetration testing approaches are becoming less effective
- The limitations and risks of annual testing cycles
- What continuous security validation looks like in practice
- How AI is changing the landscape for both attackers and defenders
- The impact of emerging regulations including NIS2 and DORA
- What boards, CISOs, and security leaders should be asking for now
What you will learn:
By attending, you’ll gain insights into:
- The biggest blind spots organisations face today
- The differences between penetration testing, red teaming, and attack simulation
- How to align testing activities with business risk and resilience objectives
- Future trends that will shape security validation over the next 3–5 years
- Practical actions to strengthen cyber resilience beyond compliance requirements
Who should attend:
This webinar is ideal for:
- Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs)
- IT and Security Leaders
- Security Managers
- Risk and Compliance Professionals
- Cyber Security Practitioners
- Digital Resilience and Governance Teams
