Cobalt adds Autonomous Pentest to scale application security testing

Cobalt has launched an automated penetration testing service that provides results within 24 hours to help organizations test applications continuously rather than on traditional quarterly or monthly schedules. The offering addresses the challenge of expanding attack surfaces and growing adoption of AI by both defenders and attackers.

Why it matters: Application security teams with limited resources should evaluate whether continuous automated testing can improve coverage across their software portfolios and reduce the window for exploitation.

Cobalt adds Autonomous Pentest to scale application security testing

Cobalt has launched Cobalt Autonomous Pentest, a service that delivers penetration testing results in as little as 24 hours to enable continuous offensive security testing across application portfolios. The offering addresses pressure from faster software development cycles and evolving attacker capabilities, alongside budget constraints that limit traditional quarterly or monthly penetration testing schedules.

Why it matters: Development and security teams relying on infrequent penetration testing cycles face growing risk as attack surfaces expand and adversaries automate reconnaissance and exploitation; rapid, continuous testing can help close that gap.
