Predefined communication triggers are important because they establish clear guidelines for when the penetration testing team should communicate with stakeholders. These triggers ensure that critical information, such as high severity vulnerabilities or indicators of a prior compromise, is relayed immediately to maintain situational awareness and address potential risks efficiently. Without these triggers, important information might be delayed or overlooked, compromising the value and effectiveness of the test.
