【谷歌翻译 未经校对】Pentest-as-a-Service(PtaaS)公司Cobalt周四宣布,已在B轮融资中筹集了2900万美元。
The funding round, which brings the total raised by the firm to $37 million, was led by venture capital firm Highland Europe, with participation from several angel investors. Cobalt says it will use the money to improve its platform and expand its global usage.
该轮融资使该公司筹集的资金总额达到了3,700万美元,由风险投资公司Highland Europe牵头,几位天使投资人参与其中。Cobalt表示将用这笔钱改善其平台并扩大其全球使用范围。
Founded in 2013, Cobalt has designed a platform that connects vetted ethical hackers with organizations looking to test the security of their products.
Cobalt成立于2013年,设计了一个平台,该平台将经过审查的白帽子与希望测试其产品安全性的组织联系起来。
Cobalt assigns pentesters whose skills match the targeted application stack. These testers will look for a wide range of vulnerabilities, with findings being reported in real time on the Cobalt platform. Once the customer patches the identified flaws — a process in which they can receive assistance from the pentesters — everything is re-tested and verified. Customers pay a fixed price based on the size of their application and the frequency of testing.
Cobalt会分配其技能与目标应用程序堆栈匹配的测试人员。这些测试人员将寻找广泛的漏洞,并在Cobalt平台上实时报告发现的漏洞。一旦客户修补了发现的缺陷(他们可以从渗透测试人员那里获得帮助的过程),便会重新测试和验证所有内容。客户根据应用程序的大小和测试频率支付固定价格。
Cobalt says it has roughly 300 pentesters and more than 500 customers, including Axel Springer, GoDaddy, MuleSoft and Vonage.
Cobalt说,它大约有300个渗透测试者和500多个客户,包括Axel Springer,GoDaddy,MuleSoft和Vonage。
“As someone who oversees security for a large and diverse portfolio of web applications, traditional pentesting simply cannot keep pace,” said Henning Christiansen, CISO at Axel Springer. “We need real-time insight. Cobalt’s unique delivery model meets this need. All our business units have embraced the platform, which is testament to its ease of use, quality of the test findings, and ability to deliver real results.”
Axel Springer的CISO Henning Christiansen说:“作为监督大量不同Web应用程序安全性的人,传统的渗透测试根本无法跟上步伐。” “我们需要实时洞察力。Cobalt独特的交付模式可以满足这一需求。我们所有的业务部门都接受了该平台,这证明了该平台的易用性,测试结果的质量以及交付真实结果的能力。”
