What's the Difference Between Penetration Testing And Ethical Hacking?

Ethical hacking and penetration testing are both essential components of cybersecurity testing, but they differ in their objectives and methodologies. Ethical hacking, also known as white-hat hacking, involves simulating the actions of a malicious hacker to identify vulnerabilities within an organisation's systems and networks. The primary objective of ethical hacking is to proactively identify and address potential security weaknesses before they can be exploited by unauthorised individuals.
