# Is it safe to test a production environment?

Beagle Security is configured to be production-environment friendly and follows strict protocols to minimize disruption. 

However, since our tests are designed to be thorough and mimic real-world attack scenarios, there is always a small risk involved. We aim to cover all possible vectors a malicious hacker might exploit, which may sometimes lead to unexpected behavior in sensitive environments.

For this reason, we strongly recommend running tests on a staging or development instance that closely mirrors your production setup, whenever possible.

If you need further clarification about testing production environments, feel free to contact us at support@beaglesecurity.com.
