The Vulnerability Testing Plan outlines a comprehensive approach to assess various security aspects of a system, including authentication, input validation, session management, and access control. It includes specific tests for weaknesses such as weak passwords, injection attacks, and insider threats, as well as recommendations for secure coding and deployment practices. The plan emphasizes the importance of logging, monitoring, and physical security, alongside testing for social engineering and business logic vulnerabilities.
