  • Why Raxis Attack is a Huge Win for Organizations

    Why Raxis Attack is a Huge Win for Organizations

    I’m excited for the new launch of Raxis Attack.  We’ve already seen traditional penetration test clients transition to Attack and leverage its advantages for on-going penetration testing and communication with the Raxis team.

    The new Raxis Attack offering takes a brand new approach to penetration testing. Instead of a point in time assessment, Raxis Attack is more like having a fractional penetration testing team available to you all year long. Not just one engineer – but literally an entire team – all at your fingertips.

    Easily see your risk in one pane of glass

    Attack gives our customers the ability to request unlimited penetration testing all year long. It’s the best “phone a friend” option for offensive security assessment on the market.

    Our built-in ongoing threat management systems provide you with updated findings. See a finding in your system that gives you pause – send it to the Raxis team for penetration testing and reporting. Made changes to your environment? Ask the team at Raxis to assess the entire environment or just the changes. Concerned about something in your network? Live chat with our engineers or schedule a video call to discuss it.

    Attack Asset Management
    Drill into full details of each asset. Assign names and tags for easy sorting.

    On top of that, the Raxis team is your team. If we see something that concerns us, we’ll investigate and report. Our activities and findings are constantly tracked through the Raxis One portal. The interactive portal puts you in control of your environment with expert advice at your fingertips. Need that traditional PDF report for compliance reporting? Request one at any time in the portal and our team will assemble it and have it ready to go (usually within 2 business days).

    Raxis Attack puts an entire Raxis team at your disposal often for less than the cost of performing two full penetration tests a year. Even if you’re considering hiring a full-time employee to test your environment, Attack gives you the full Raxis team at a fraction of the cost of one salary.

    Whether you’re outsourcing all your assessment needs to Raxis Attack or using us to supplement your existing team, the collaboration and professional assessments that Raxis is already known for are a great addition to your existing solutions.

    With the threat landscape always changing, the way you assess risk should evolve as well. Want to take it for a test drive? Reach out with our contact page, and our team will be happy to schedule a demo and let you decide if Raxis Attack is right for you.

  • Raxis listed as a Sample Vendor for Penetration Testing as a Service in two Gartner® Hype Cycle™, 2024 reports

    Raxis listed as a Sample Vendor for Penetration Testing as a Service in two Gartner® Hype Cycle™, 2024 reports

    We’re proud to announce that Raxis is recognized as a Sample Vendor for Penetration Testing as a Service technology in the recent Gartner® Hype Cycle™ for Security Operations, 2024 and Hype Cycle™ for Application Security, 2024 reports.

    According to the Hype Cycle for Security Operations report, “PTaaS complements vulnerability scanning and application security testing, and provides cost optimization and quality improvement of pentesting output and validation of vulnerability status. PTaaS enables organizations to elevate their security posture through continual assessment, and can integrate validation earlier in the software development life cycle compared with traditional pentesting phases by giving access to real-time findings delivered through the platform, therefore enabling faster treatment of exposure.”

    The Hype Cycle for Application Security report states, “Pentesting is foundational in a security program and mandated by various compliance standards (e.g., payment card industry [PCI]). PTaaS delivers continuous security testing via a platform that enables faster scheduling and execution of pentests, and real-time communications with testers and visibility of test results. It provides API access to enable integration with existing DevOps and ticketing solutions for workflow automation. It also provides the ability to document and track pentesting results to demonstrate progress over time to leadership/auditors.”

    “We’re thrilled to receive these recognitions as a Sample Vendor for the second year in a row. With Raxis PTaaS, business stakeholders not only get visibility into actual security risks over time but also have the opportunity to collaborate directly with our penetration testing experts.”

    Mark Puckett, CEO and Founder of Raxis

    The Raxis Penetration Testing as a Service (PTaaS) solution allows customers to choose options based on their needs and budget. Raxis Attack, the premier PTaaS offering, combines continuous vulnerability scanning with unlimited penetration testing by senior engineers. Moreover, Raxis prioritizes real-time collaboration with customer teams, ensuring that penetration test findings are promptly discussed and actionable insights provided. The Raxis Protect offering removes manual testing; however, it provides continuous scanning, real-time alerting of new findings, and access to a senior penetration testing expert for remediation discussions. Regardless of the solution selected, Raxis One displays current and historical findings, ensuring businesses have constant insights into their security posture.

    Raxis listed as a Sample Vendor for Penetration Testing as a Service in two 2023 Gartner® Hype Cycle™ reports

    We’re proud to announce that Gartner identified Raxis as a Sample Vendor for Penetration Testing as a Service in two Gartner Hype Cycle reports in 2023.

    According to the Gartner Hype Cycle for Security Operations, “Organizations are turning to PTaaS to deal with the increase of attack surfaces due to accelerating use of public cloud and expansion of public-facing digital assets. PTaaS allows developers to talk to and receive guidance from pentesters instead of arguing with scanners, such as dynamic application security testing/static application security testing (DAST/SAST) scanners.”

    In the Hype Cycle for Application Security report, Gartner states “PTaaS complements vulnerability scanning and application security testing, and provides cost-optimization and quality improvement of pentesting output and validation of vulnerability status. PTaaS enables organizations to elevate their security posture through continual assessment. It integrates validation earlier in the software development life cycle compared with traditional pentesting phases by giving access to real-time findings delivered through the platform, therefore enabling faster reduction of exposure.”

    “We believe our recognitions certainly validate the importance and value that organizations can realize by engaging in a continuous Penetration Testing as a Service solution. By implementing Raxis PTaaS, business stakeholders will now have visibility into the actual security risks to the organization over time.”

    Mark Puckett, CEO and Founder of Raxis

    Raxis’ Penetration Testing as a Service solution customers receive at least one annual traditional penetration test to set a baseline and to meet common compliance requirements. For businesses where full time security is a priority, Raxis’ continuous anomaly detection and on-demand penetration tests are a key defense to newly emerging security findings. With current and historical findings detailed in the Raxis One portal and Raxis’ zero-day detection within PTaaS, businesses can rest assured that they have constant, key insights into their security posture.
