Hi all,

I did a lot of research, but got the point where I wonder: Is there any real meaningful infosec certification a company could gain?

I can follow a lot of frameworks and do certifications on them (like ISO 27001, NIST CSF, ISACA COBIT, TISAX, etc.), but they all are looking at documents and processes which kind of prove the mindset, but not actual security.

I think about something like “company survived a 5-day pentest or regulary does blue team exercises”, etc., which show that the company can detect and respond and not only write documents.

Does anyone know about something like that? Or does this simply don’t exists yet?

Thanks for the input!

Not likely, remember security is a process not a product. That is why things like SOC and iso 27000/27001 exist to show as a company you have processes in place to protect their own data and customer date

company survived a 5-day pentest

While I like the thought, I would think threat actors would take that as a challenge.

I don’t think any major company I know of could get through a pen test without the hackers getting through.
