Cobalt Reviews & Product Details

Cobalt identifies vulnerabilities in our website that could be exploited by hackers. They provide recommendations for fixing the issues, and after the fixes are implemented, they review and offer feedback on the resolution. Good Customer support they offer and ease in understanding the issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

They do pentesting for 8-10days and in between that timeframe if site fail in that case the timeframe will be less for testing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Very easy to get into the platform and be interative. You can do one test and quickly move onto another without having tio go through the process of another engagement. The customizeable reporting and integrations come in handy. Well defined interface, can get expensive if you do a lot of testing but don't need a dedicated individual.

The initial login is a little confusing. It could use a little more hand holding, especially if you have already registered and forgotten.

Feedback cycles vary depending on the individual working on you engagement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The pen-test experience with Cobalt works just great for us. The main pros I enjoy when working with them are the following:

- Ease of setup. In your Cobalt account, you set up your app details, which have to be tested. Even if you're new to all this stuff, the form contains enough instructions to guide you through the whole process. If that information is not enough, you get in-person support, which will help you through the process.

- Quick start and turnaround. As soon as you decide to launch your test, it only takes Cobalt 48 hours to find test engineers according to your requirements. Or you can easily plan for many months. All will start on time.

- Real-time reporting. You don't need to wait two weeks for the test to be fully finished to learn about the findings. Once a vulnerability is identified, its details are added to your Cobalt account. If you're using Jira for project management, you can also set up an integration, which will create a Jira issue with all the vulnerability details. Your developer can jump straight on it and fix the problem without switching to any other account. Additionally, all vulnerabilities found come with remediation instructions.

- Ongoing communication. You get a Slack channel organized with the testers who report to you daily, who you can ask questions and get explanations. We asked to assign us the testers who can communicate during our timezone for better collaboration.

Adversary Simulation and Red Teaming. Cobalt Strike isn’t your run-of-the-mill penetration testing tool. It goes beyond finding unpatched vulnerabilities and misconfigurations. Instead, it simulates the tactics and techniques of an advanced adversary within a network. Imagine slipping into the shoes of a stealthy, long-term infiltrator—someone who’s quietly embedded themselves in the digital shadows. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Professional and timely service for our compay Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hard to reach over an extended time period Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is easy to schedule and the portal is easy to use and see findings as the test is happening. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing comes to mind - we have had good experiences working with them Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

That they will retest for many moths after the test ends, providing time to evaluate and take actionon their findings Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

They don't pay attention to resolutions to reported problems, and report the same low and medium severity "issues" over and over again, even when tghey are resolved as by design or nbot significant. I shouldn't have to start over with a baseline of zero everytime, as it just creates noise and obscures whatever real issues they might have identified Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
