Data breaches cost businesses millions of dollars and can cripple an organization. Penetration testing business applications is one of the most effective ways to prevent data breaches due to application coding or configuration errors. However, many organizations struggle to pentest their applications effectively and frequently enough to make a difference. Some struggle to find the right talent to perform the test. Others find it difficult to work proper testing into their development lifecycle. Often, companies feel like the only option is to pay expensive consultants to do the work for them.
 
Through customer interviews and case studies, ESG validated that Cobalt’s Pentest as a Service (PtaaS) model provides a cost-effective way to reduce risk and accelerate results. Cobalt provides skilled testers who collaborate with development teams during the test and help them fix vulnerabilities before they become an expensive data breach. Organizations no longer need to engage with expensive consultants that disappear for weeks to test their applications before dumping a cryptic list of vulnerabilities on their doorstep. ESG models found that customers using Cobalt’s services reduce the time that vulnerabilities stay exposed by 66%, while lowering the total cost of the pentest by 53%, resulting in an expected return on investment (ROI) of 176% per engagement. With Cobalt, collaboration and highly skilled testers lead to excellent results and a massive reduction in risk exposure for companies of all sizes.
