NEW YORK, Dec. 17, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Security testing refers to a set of activities performed to locate and isolate the flaws in the security mechanisms of a software or application to ensure data protection and functionality as intended. The process reveals hidden vulnerabilities within software which can be easily exploited by a hacker or virus. Security testing has become a priority for organizations across all industry verticals and the demand for security testing is being driven by the growth of mobile and web applications.

Both these techniques are used widely in security testing.
