Cobalt modernizes offensive security by combining a global network of vetted penetration testers with a SaaS Pentest-as-a-Service (PtaaS) platform. They deliver on-demand and continuous pentesting to find, validate, and help remediate vulnerabilities across web, mobile, and cloud environments. Their platform centralizes findings, prioritization, and remediation tracking to fit developer workflows and support compliance. Organizations use Cobalt to scale and speed up security testing compared with traditional pentest engagements.
