Threat-Led Penetration Testing — A controlled security test designed around realistic threat intelligence and adversary behavior.
Why Threat-Led Penetration Testing matters in finance
It is especially relevant to financial-sector resilience testing of critical functions.

In financial services, threat-led penetration testing should be understood in relation to operational continuity, data integrity, payments, market infrastructure and interconnected dependencies. A control can be technically effective while still leaving material resilience risk if critical services cannot continue or recover during disruption.
