Build vs Buy Agentic Pentesting and What the DIY Path Costs
Everyone can build a working pentest agent in a weekend. Owning it for two years is the hard part: the four costs nobody adds up, and the seven requirements a demo never has to meet.
Funding rounds, leadership changes, incidents, new capabilities and announcements across the vendors in this catalog — collected automatically from vendors' own public feeds. Product release versions are on their own page, so the landing feed here never reads as one vendor's changelog.Where this comes fromEvery item links to the vendor's own published source: a GitHub release feed, a changelog, a status page, an SEC filing or a company blog. Nothing here is written or editorially reviewed by 0-Doubt, and nothing is a recommendation — it is machine-collected public record, labelled the same way as all other baseline content on the platform. Coverage is uneven by design: a vendor that publishes no public feed will not appear, and that absence is not a judgement about the vendor.
1,428 matching stories — in Attack Surface Management (ASM) — showing up to 3 per vendorPer-vendor capWhile browsing, no single vendor may fill more than three slots on any one page, so a vendor with a chatty release cadence cannot buy the page you are looking at. That means a page can render fewer stories than the count above. Searching a headline or naming a vendor turns the cap off, because then you have asked to see everything that matches.

Getting PCI DSS Requirement 11.4 Right From the Start Enterprises often know they need PCI compliance penetration testing but remain uncertain about what makes a test compliant. PCI DSS v4.0.1 Requirement 11.4 involves considerably more than scheduling an annual external assessment. Scope, internal and external testing, methodology, tester qualifications, segmentation validation, remediation, retesting, and evidence all influence whether the work will satisfy assessor scrutiny. This guide explai
Vendor questionnaires support due diligence, but NIS2 and DORA require ongoing supplier oversight and evidence.
The first in CloudSEK's "Caught in 4K" series, where we pull ransomware operations out of the shadows and show exactly how they work. A misconfigured server opened a window straight into an Aurora ransomware operator's playbook: attacker tools, AI-assisted planning, and a look inside the actual negotiation panel where a victims and the operator settled on payment. In partnership with TRM Labs, we traced that payment on-chain, into a wider laundering network moving money across multiple victims.
Penetration testing proposals are rarely easy to compare. One vendor prices by application, another by testing days, another by credits, and another by AI test runs. Choosing the right penetration testing vendor therefore requires more than comparing report length, brand recognition, or the initial quote. This guide provides an enterprise checklist and weighted scorecard for evaluating scope, methodology, tester quality, finding validation, reporting, remediation, governance, and total program c
