What is Pentest as a Service (PTaaS)?

Pentest as a Service, or PTaaS, is a SaaS delivery model for managing and orchestrating pentest engagements. Pentests are authorized simulated cyberattacks on an organization’s attack surface, performed by human security experts to find and assess the severity of vulnerabilities. Pentests are time bound, typically two weeks in duration, and driven by a methodology checklist, ending with a detailed report of findings.

How does Pentest as a Service work?

PTaaS solutions provide a means for human pentesters to submit findings in real time and for customers to consume results, interact with testers, and manage pentest programs on an annual basis. PTaaS, in some cases, also provides access to a community of vetted, background-checked ethical hackers for a larger pool of testers with the potential for more diverse perspectives, skills, and tactics.
