Automation vs. Intuition: Why your compliance posture needs both. 🤖+🧠
As frameworks like NIS2 et ISO 27001 demand more rigorous security testing, a common question arises: “Is an automated scan enough?”
The short answer: No.
Reputable sources like NCC Group and Bridewell highlight a critical truth: while automated tools are excellent for speed and catching “low-hanging fruit,” they lack the contextual reasoning of a human attacker.
Why Manual Pen Testing is Non-Negotiable for True Posture:
1️⃣ Complex Logic Flaws: Automated tools follow algorithms; they can’t “think” through a multi-stage business logic exploit. Manual testing uncovers the subtle gaps that AI misses.
2️⃣ Chained Vulnerabilities: Attackers rarely use one hole. They chain minor issues together to create a major breach. A manual tester mimics this creative persistence.
3️⃣ Contextual Risk: A tool might flag a “medium” vulnerability that, in the context of your specific infrastructure, is actually a “critical” gateway to your most sensitive data.
The ComplianceRT Approach:
Through our 360vue engine, we advocate for a Hybrid Approach. We use automation for continuous scale and manual expertise for depth. This is “The Core” of a modern security posture—especially for those navigating the new requirements of NIS2.
Security isn’t a “set and forget” scan. It’s an orchestrated effort to stay one step ahead.
