contents Conventional security solutions are insufficient to address the urgent cybersecurity challenge posed by insider attacks. While a great deal of research has been done in this area, our systematic literature analysis attempts to give readers a thorough grasp of penetration testing's role in reducing insider risks. We aim to arrange and integrate the body of knowledge on insider threat prevention by using a grounded theory approach for a thorough literature review. This analysis classifies and evaluates the approaches used in penetration testing today, including how well they uncover and mitigate insider threats and how well they work in tandem with other security procedures. Additionally, we look at how penetration testing is used in different industries, present case studies with real-world implementations, and discuss the obstacles and constraints that businesses must overcome. This study aims to improve the knowledge of penetration testing as a critical part of insider threat defense, helping to create more comprehensive and successful security policies.
