Penetration Testing as a Service (PTaaS)

Pentest as a service (PTaaS)

Continuous and selective penetration tests allow us to guarantee the security of your IT systems.

The annual penetration test is the cornerstone - it is supported by regular, selective pentests (aka PTaaS). This involves "on-demand" testing. For example, if a lot has suddenly changed or with a focus on a specific new function.

My Recommendation

Pentest-as-a-Service with personal support

Many PTaaS offerings hide behind portals and tickets. With us, you keep the same point of contact - including regular syncs on findings and roadmap.

What is PTaaS - Penetration Testing as a Service?

Change cycles are short, deployments happen daily - an annual penetration test is no longer sufficient. PTaaS embeds security into your product cycles: We continuously deliver short, focused assessments while you maintain full control over scope, priorities, and timing.

Our approach is hybrid. Experienced pentesters conduct targeted testing where business logic, roles, or new APIs are critical. Automated scans run in the background, Argos keeps Shadow IT in view. We consolidate results into clear reports - including ticket export, roadmap, and retest.

PTaaS adapts to your processes: monthly mini-pentests for new features, quarterly assessments for complete releases, or ad-hoc checks for urgent hotfixes. This keeps development, security, and management informed at all times.

The result: faster releases, fewer surprises, and a security posture that remains transparent even between major audits.

What gets tested?

We define scope and Go/No-Gos together. Whether web app, API, mobile, or infrastructure - PTaaS covers exactly the components that are changing.

Who is it suitable for?

Ideal for teams with frequent releases, multiple products, or high protection needs. We handle coordination with DevOps, Cloud, and suppliers.

We'll make you an unbeatable PTaaS offer!
