About

Cobalt.io is a pentest as a service platform that replaces the traditional engagement model for penetration testing — multi-month sales cycles, fixed-scope contracts, and point-in-time PDF reports — with an on-demand platform that connects companies with a curated network of vetted security researchers to run targeted, time-boxed pentests that deliver results in days rather than weeks. The platform's core innovation is the application of talent marketplace mechanics to security testing: companies define their test scope and objectives through the Cobalt platform, and vetted pentesters with relevant expertise are matched to the engagement, perform testing, and submit findings through a structured findings interface that delivers actionable vulnerability data in real time rather than in a post-engagement report delivered weeks after testing completes.
