A penetration tester is compiling the final report for a recently completed engagement. A junior QA team member wants to know where they can find details on the impact, overall security findings, and high-level statements. Which of the following sections of the report would most likely contain this information?

Answer options

• A. Quality control
• B. Methodology
• C. Executive summary
• D. Risk scoring

Correct answer: C
