In this episode, we’re digging into one of the most overlooked parts of a penetration test, when it actually makes sense to not fix a finding. Not every vulnerability deserves equal treatment, and sometimes accepting the risk is the most mature decision a business can make. We’ll cover how to recognize those situations, avoid common pitfalls, and document your choices so they stand up to scrutiny.
