“When we first went with Cobalt it was purely for PCI requirements, but we were looking to scale our program and pentest on a more continuous basis. Cobalt gave us the ability to pentest on a frequent basis with minimum effort from our teams. Saving us time and providing us quality results on a consistent basis.”

“A good pentest for us is the right people, doing the right tests. But then it’s also communicating that effectively and then partnering with our organization in order to actually close those vulnerabilities once they’ve been found.”

"I would recommend Cobalt to other banks and financial institutions. Simply put, you do the rotation for us. Pentesters rotate each time we do an engagement with Cobalt and that checks the box from an auditing standpoint."
