Most organizations believe they are moving fast enough until they see the data on how quickly the world’s most mature security teams actually resolve high-risk findings. There is a staggering divide in the industry today—a gap measured not in days, but in seasons—between those who treat pentesting as a checkbox and those who treat it as a continuous defensive engine.

Join Gunter Ollmann, CTO at Cobalt, and Wade Baker, founding partner at Cyentia, as they dissect the latest research into how the world’s leading security teams are—and aren't—adapting their pentesting cycles for the era of machine-speed threats.

Join this webinar to learn:

  • Why the industry’s top performers are able to neutralize high-risk findings in a fraction of the time it takes the average organization.
  • Practical methods for reducing your total exposure window to high-risk findings, ensuring you stay ahead of automated adversarial tactics.
  • How to measure your team’s performance against new industry data to determine if your exposure window is widening or shrinking.
