Understanding the limitations and boundaries of the test environment goes hand in hand with the client requirements, which can be justified as intentional or unintentional interests. These can be in the form of technology, knowledge, or any other formal restrictions imposed by the client on the infrastructure. Each limitation imposed may cause a serious interruption to the testing process and can be resolved using alternative methods. However, note that certain restrictions cannot be modified, as they are administered by the client to control the process of penetration testing. We will discuss each of these generic types of limitations with their relevant examples as follows:
