I ran across these publications in an ISSEP seminar; the first link covers a
lot of publications addressing all things security, the second contains
specific details on security audits/penetration testing.

Try:

Specifically:

Anyone have any documents they are willing to share on the scope of work for
a pen-test? I have looked online but was unable to find any available
documentation. If anyone could provide me with a some links or
documentation outlining a pen-test/network audit it would be greatly
appreciated.
