Have you ever had your own students do a penetration test against the University systems?  Both inside and out?

Bradley University has a class on penetration testing; they did a “red team” attack against an outside company.  The 
idea was to do outside and inside the following year (they had to get people on-board).  They did a presentation at 
ForenSecure this year.

Hi All,

We do one every couple years by an outside vendor but we would like to start doing more on our own; possibly every 6 
months.  So, I’m looking for any penetration testing plans or the process used for conducting pen testing on your own. 
Any thoughts or ideas welcomed, thanks again.

Looking forward to your responses.

Have a Great Day!
