Automated Security Testing

Test 100% of your external attack surface across cloud, hybrid and privately hosted environments.

CyCognito Automated Security Testing (AST) tests from the outside-in to find security weaknesses across all exposed systems, including web apps and network services. Combining asset classification and active unauthenticated testing, CyCognito uncovers critical, hard-to-find issues and related business impact, such as an injection vulnerability on a payment application, or an unencrypted file exposing credentials in the cloud.

Reach Your Security Goals

Test what you’ve been missing.

Eliminate gaps in testing that leave you vulnerable to incidents. CyCognito automatically discovers and tests your entire external asset inventory, including web apps with DAST.

With over 80,000 remote checks spanning 35 threat and issue types, CyCognito’s regularly updated test catalog — including CISA’s Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) and other internally developed and third-party tests — ensures your organization stays ahead.

High Accuracy and Precision

Identify critical risks and exposures with precision.

Traditional scanners rely on banner grabs and basic version lookups for vulnerability information, leaving you with more questions than answers.

CyCognito goes further, using multi-layered testing with crafted payloads to validate real-world risks. CyCognito combines passive scanning, active scanning, and active testing to provide clear, high-confidence results — no guesswork, no wasted time, just actionable insights.

Maximize Coverage

Test the farthest corner of your exposed attack surface.

Eliminate staff and resource blockers that stop you from testing your full external attack surface.

Resource limits shouldn’t stop you from securing your full external attack surface. CyCognito removes discovery and testing roadblocks with a fully automated SaaS platform that scales effortlessly — analyzing billions of cloud, hybrid, and privately hosted assets. Our active testing validates remediation efforts, ensuring faster, more effective security operations.
