Report Writing and Post Testing Actions

Jeffry, a penetration tester at Repotes Solutions Pvt. Ltd., encountered a problem while testing a firewall. After consulting other penetration testers and considering alternative penetration-testing approaches, he made critical decisions about how to test the firewall and ultimately tested it successfully for vulnerabilities.

In which section of the penetration-testing report will Jeffry document this situation?

  • A Timeline
  • B Evaluation purpose
  • C Assumptions
  • D System description
Explanation

A penetration-testing report’s timeline records the events and progress of the engagement, including significant testing activities, obstacles, decisions, and their outcomes. The consultation and change of approach that enabled successful firewall testing are therefore timeline information. OWASP identifies the timeline as a report section for the engagement’s duration.
