Penetration Test Scheduling

Why automate?
How Cflow Helps:
Structured Pen Test Request Approvals
Cflow routes penetration test requests to designated security teams for approval, ensuring tests are authorized before execution.
Risk-Based Test Scheduling
High-risk tests require additional approval layers, while routine security scans can be automatically approved based on predefined rules.
Conflict-Free Scheduling
Cflow ensures that penetration tests do not interfere with production systems or critical business operations by coordinating schedules with IT teams.
Test Execution Documentation
Every approved penetration test is logged, time-stamped, and stored for audit purposes, ensuring security teams can track historical test data.
