Founded in 2005, the company has built a reputation for combining deep technical expertise with innovative approaches to adversarial testing. The firm serves Fortune 500 companies and high-growth technology companies with services spanning application penetration testing, network testing, red teaming, cloud security assessments, and their continuous attack surface management platform called Cosmos.
