CBTS has launched a new Penetration Testing as a Service (PTaaS) offering that provides continuous security assessment capabilities for enterprise environments. The service combines automated penetration testing technology with security expertise to help organizations identify exploitable vulnerabilities and validate potential attack paths on an ongoing basis.
The launch responds to a fundamental shift in enterprise security challenges. Modern organizations face rapidly expanding attack surfaces driven by cloud infrastructure, SaaS applications, connected systems, third-party integrations, and AI implementations. Traditional penetration testing, typically conducted quarterly or annually, cannot keep pace with the speed at which these environments change and new vulnerabilities emerge.
CBTS's PTaaS platform addresses this gap by enabling continuous testing rather than point-in-time assessments. The service automatically identifies exploitable risks as infrastructure evolves and helps security teams prioritize remediation efforts based on actual attack path validation. This approach allows organizations to maintain current visibility into their security posture rather than relying on assessments that may be weeks or months out of date.
The timing aligns with current threat trends. According to industry breach data cited by CBTS, vulnerability exploitation has now surpassed stolen credentials as the primary method attackers use to compromise organizations. This shift makes continuous vulnerability identification and validation increasingly critical for defensive strategies.
Organizations implementing PTaaS can expect ongoing assessment of their security controls with expert analysis to guide remediation priorities. Security teams should evaluate how continuous testing fits into their existing vulnerability management programs and consider whether their current testing cadence adequately covers their evolving infrastructure. The service aims to help organizations move from periodic snapshots to continuous security validation across their entire attack surface.
