Penetration Testing vs Ethical Hacking - What's the Difference?

[@knewdist]

Penetration testing, or pentesting, is a security testing methodology where skilled professionals, often called ethical hackers or penetration testers, simulate cyberattacks on a system, network, or application. The objective is to identify and exploit vulnerabilities to assess the overall security and help organizations strengthen their defenses against potential real-world threats.

I hear those platforms trying to compare these roles but they always use the word 'vulnerability.' That got me more confused. I was able to understand after seeing this video because you were able to explain it with security control. I got to understand what a pentester is focused on
