In this research paper we have conducted a literature review on the work done by the various researchers in the area of Penetration (PEN) testing. We have tried to review the various aspects related to the PEN testing.

We have also studied the various tools used for PEN testing in terms of their utility, technical specifications, date of their release, Platform compatibility etc. various aspects related to the PEN testing.
