Overview
What this template supports
A client-facing penetration test readout from a cybersecurity firm. It sets out the engagement scope and exclusions, severity stats, an embedded findings register from the findings database, the top findings with owners and targets, an attack path diagram, remediation targets by severity, testing caveats and the decisions for the readout call. It states that the test is a point-in-time assessment, not continuous monitoring.
