Cobalt.io Integration with DefectDojo
Cobalt.io is a Penetration Testing as a Service (PtaaS) platform that provides on-demand access to a vetted community of expert security researchers to conduct penetration tests, secure code reviews, digital risk assessments, and other offensive security services across web applications, mobile applications, APIs, networks, and cloud infrastructure. The platform combines real-time collaboration tools, workflow automation, and comprehensive reporting capabilities to enable organizations to identify, prioritize, and remediate security vulnerabilities faster than traditional pentesting approaches, with the ability to launch tests in as little as 24 hours.
