Running a Security Program
Last updated on April 5, 2023
IMPORTANT - READ BEFORE USING THE SITE OR SERVICES FOR RUNNING A SECURITY PROGRAM.

These Running a Security Program terms (“Supplemental Terms”) form a part of the General Terms and you agree that you are a User of the Site and Services and you therefore have already agreed to and accepted the General Terms and Privacy Policy for being a User on the Site and Services. Terms not otherwise defined herein, shall have the meaning set forth in the General Terms.

Security Program Time Period

The Security Program initiates when it is listed on the Site and Services and has the status Live.

The Security Program will run until a written deadline agreed between You and Cobalt. This deadline will be listed on the Security Program.

Security Pentesters can only engage in testing on programs that are in status Live and the Security Pentesters have been invited to. When a program is past the test deadline, Security Pentesters are not allowed to engage in test activities other than re-testing / Patch verification specifically requested by You.

The date on which your test will start may depend on the Tier associated with your account. Each Tier permits test start dates within a defined minimum advance notice, measured in Business Days (“Minimum Notice Period”). For purposes of calculating the applicable period associated with your Tier, a “Business Day” falls within Cobalt Business Hours and excludes holidays and weekends, provided that a test must be assigned a test to “Planned” prior to 11 AM Pacific Standard Time of the first day of the Minimum Notice Period. “Cobalt Business Hours” are: for customers in EMEA, 8 AM - 5 PM Central European Standard Time; for customers in the Americas, 8 AM Eastern Time- 5 PM Pacific Time. Cobalt’s commitment to initiate a test within a certain period only begins when a test is listed as “Planned” and a start date is selected. Services must be scheduled to be completed within the applicable annualized period of the Order Term. When Services that are scheduled to begin within thirty (30) days of the expiration of the one-year period associated with the applicable Credit(s), test coverage may be reduced and retesting may be precluded due to time and resource constraints.

Third Party Integrations

Services may be configured to facilitate integration with certain third party software products or services leveraged by Cobalt Yous. The availability of such integrations is dependent on the specific Tier assigned to a Customer.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Cobalt reserves the right to deprecate any particular third party integration at its discretion.

By accessing or using Cobalt’s third party integrations, Customerrepresents and warrants that it has obtained all necessary licenses, credentials, or other rights to facilitate Customer leveraging such third-party integrations.

Cobalt hereby disclaims any and all obligations relative to such third party’s privacy or security posture.

Customer uses such third party integrations at its own risk. Cobalt does not make any warranty for and shall not be held liable or accept any liability, obligation, or responsibility for any loss or damage in connection with any third party integration. Cobalt has no control over such third parties and we are not responsible for the content of their services. Cobalt provides You with third party integrations only for Your convenience.

Retesting

Cobalt may offer retesting of vulnerabilities, depending on the Tier you purchased, as further described in Cobalt’s Tiers FAQ. Retesting consists of Cobalt Pentesters re-engaging via the same or similar methodologies in testing of specified vulnerabilities that were originally identified in a Cobalt Vulnerability Report. Retesting is applicable only to those vulnerabilities that you have taken steps to remediate and the intent of retesting is to validate the efficacy of your remediation efforts. Timing for retesting is at Cobalt's sole discretion. Customer cooperation with Cobalt operational requests (including without limitation, providing access to credentials and environments) is a condition to Cobalt’s retesting obligations. Cobalt Customers must request a retest by at least ten (10) days prior to the expiration of their Services term (unless Customer has executed a renewal). Retesting is subject to all terms and conditions otherwise applicable to the provision of Services by Cobalt.

Confidentiality. During the Term, and continuing after expiration or termination of the Agreement, each party shall retain in confidence, and not use (except for the purposes described in this Agreement), the Confidential Information of the other party. The receiving party will use the same degree of care and discretion (but not less than reasonable care) to avoid disclosure, publication or dissemination of the disclosing party’s Confidential Information as it uses with its own confidential or proprietary information of a similar nature. Except as authorized in this Agreement or a Sales Order, the receiving party will not disclose the Confidential Information of the disclosing party to a third party other than to its or its Affiliates’ employees, contractors, agents or advisors in connection with its performance of this Agreement who are bound by terms no less protective of a disclosing party’s rights as those set forth in this Agreement and the receiving party shall be liable to the disclosing party for any violation of this Agreement by such persons.

Running a Security Program

Last updated on April 5, 2023

IMPORTANT - READ BEFORE USING THE SITE OR SERVICES FOR RUNNING A SECURITY PROGRAM.

These Running a Security Program terms (“Supplemental Terms”) form a part of the General Terms and you agree that you are a User of the Site and Services and you therefore have already agreed to and accepted the General Terms and Privacy Policy for being a User on the Site and Services. Terms not otherwise defined herein, shall have the meaning set forth in the General Terms.

Security Program Time Period

The Security Program initiates when it is listed on the Site and Services and has the status Live.

The Security Program will run until a written deadline agreed between You and Cobalt. This deadline will be listed on the Security Program.

Security Pentesters can only engage in testing on programs that are in status Live and the Security Pentesters have been invited to. When a program is past the test deadline, Security Pentesters are not allowed to engage in test activities other than re-testing / Patch verification specifically requested by You.

The date on which your test will start may depend on the Tier associated with your account. Each Tier permits test start dates within a defined minimum advance notice, measured in Business Days (“Minimum Notice Period”). For purposes of calculating the applicable period associated with your Tier, a “Business Day” falls within Cobalt Business Hours and excludes holidays and weekends, provided that a test must be assigned a test to “Planned” prior to 11 AM Pacific Standard Time of the first day of the Minimum Notice Period. “Cobalt Business Hours” are: for customers in EMEA, 8 AM - 5 PM Central European Standard Time; for customers in the Americas, 8 AM Eastern Time- 5 PM Pacific Time. Cobalt’s commitment to initiate a test within a certain period only begins when a test is listed as “Planned” and a start date is selected. Services must be scheduled to be completed within the applicable annualized period of the Order Term. When Services that are scheduled to begin within thirty (30) days of the expiration of the one-year period associated with the applicable Credit(s), test coverage may be reduced and retesting may be precluded due to time and resource constraints.

Third Party Integrations

Services may be configured to facilitate integration with certain third party software products or services leveraged by Cobalt Yous. The availability of such integrations is dependent on the specific Tier assigned to a Customer.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Cobalt reserves the right to deprecate any particular third party integration at its discretion.

By accessing or using Cobalt’s third party integrations, Customerrepresents and warrants that it has obtained all necessary licenses, credentials, or other rights to facilitate Customer leveraging such third-party integrations.

Cobalt hereby disclaims any and all obligations relative to such third party’s privacy or security posture.

Customer uses such third party integrations at its own risk. Cobalt does not make any warranty for and shall not be held liable or accept any liability, obligation, or responsibility for any loss or damage in connection with any third party integration. Cobalt has no control over such third parties and we are not responsible for the content of their services. Cobalt provides You with third party integrations only for Your convenience.

Retesting

Cobalt may offer retesting of vulnerabilities, depending on the Tier you purchased, as further described in Cobalt’s Tiers FAQ. Retesting consists of Cobalt Pentesters re-engaging via the same or similar methodologies in testing of specified vulnerabilities that were originally identified in a Cobalt Vulnerability Report. Retesting is applicable only to those vulnerabilities that you have taken steps to remediate and the intent of retesting is to validate the efficacy of your remediation efforts. Timing for retesting is at Cobalt's sole discretion. Customer cooperation with Cobalt operational requests (including without limitation, providing access to credentials and environments) is a condition to Cobalt’s retesting obligations. Cobalt Customers must request a retest by at least ten (10) days prior to the expiration of their Services term (unless Customer has executed a renewal). Retesting is subject to all terms and conditions otherwise applicable to the provision of Services by Cobalt.
