# Cobalt Launches Autonomous Pentest

**[SD Times](https://daily.dev/sources/sdtimes)** · 3 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Cobalt has launched Autonomous Pentest, a new offering integrated into its Offensive Security Platform that combines AI orchestration with a community of ~500 vetted human pentesters to deliver penetration testing findings within 24 hours. Unlike traditional pentesting cycles (monthly or quarterly), this PTaaS approach enables continuous coverage at the speed of modern software development. The AI engine draws on 14 years of exploit data and over 10,000 critical findings to perform attack chain prediction and adaptive sequencing. Cobalt positions this as a complement to compliance-driven human-led pentests, not a replacement, targeting organizations that need continuous attack surface coverage between deeper regulatory engagements.
