Minimize Risk with Offensive Security Testing

Leverage Offensive Security to minimize cybersecurity risks efficiently and effectively, making the most of your limited security resources and investment.

Discover how Cobalt can be your strategic partner with top to bottom cybersecurity services.

OVERVIEW

What is Offensive Security?

Implementing offensive security, defense in depth, and layered security across your tech stack helps to minimize risk and protect business value. By assessing security controls like a malicious actor, you can efficiently evaluate the effectiveness of your current approach. This mindset and focus allows you to allocate valuable resources to maximum risk management. Instead of speculating and guessing what tactics attackers may employ to breach your company, offensive security enables you to make well-informed predictions, allowing you to concentrate your efforts in an intentional and coordinated manner.


Offensive security is the process of proactively identifying vulnerabilities and weaknesses in your networks, software, and endpoints that could be exploited by simulating real cyberattacks and actively strengthening defenses– rather than waiting for attackers to strike.

BENEFITS
