Who We Are

Cobalt was founded on the belief of a fundamental human aspiration: the desire to live better and safer. It all started in 2013 when our founders realized that pen testing could improve. Today, our diverse, fully remote team is committed to helping organizations of all sizes with seamless, effective, and collaborative Offensive Security Testing that empowers organizations to OPERATE FEARLESSLY and INNOVATE SECURELY.

Thanks to the powerful combination of our SaaS platform and an exclusive community of testers known as the Cobalt Core, our customers can start a pentest in as little as 24 hours and integrate with advanced development cycles. Accepting just 5% of applicants, the Cobalt Core boasts over 400 closely vetted and highly skilled testers who jointly conduct thousands of tests each year and are at the forefront of identifying and helping remediate risk across a dynamically changing attack surface.
