How to Assess Your Exposure

Start with these questions:

When was your last penetration test?: If it was more than 12 months ago, your results are stale. The attack surface changes faster than annual testing can track.
Did it cover SQL Injection specifically?: Generic vulnerability scans check for known CVEs. They do not test for the underlying weakness (CWE-89) in your custom code and configurations.
Are your detection tools tuned for this?: Run a controlled test. If your SOC does not alert on a SQL Injection attempt, your monitoring has a gap.
