Penetration testing is the method that involves simulating real-world attacks to identify vulnerabilities in a system. This type of testing mimics potential adversaries' actions to uncover exploitable weaknesses and assess the security posture of an organization. Adversary emulation is also closely related, as it involves replicating specific tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) used by potential attackers.
