Assume the not-so-distant future (or present) is ruled by 0day, which I totally agree with you on. What is the value-added from pen-testing/auditing?
It sounds like you have the wrong train of thought on this. The idea and value behind pentesting is not to show that you can be popped by one 0day, its to expose architecture and design flaws in your applications and network design. A correctly designed network should be able to withstand one or two 0day in major applications and still stay useful. If your infrastructure can be brought down by a single bug then you should look long and hard at its design. _______________________________________________ Dailydave mailing list Dailydave () lists immunitysec com https://lists.immunitysec.com/mailman/listinfo/dailydave
