What it is
Pentesterra combines vulnerability management, automated network and web pentesting, breach and attack simulation, and AI-assisted exploit verification in one orchestration platform. Its workflow links attack-surface mapping, breach simulation and controlled exploitation, with prioritization based on evidence. Web testing covers modern web apps, single-page applications and APIs through public or private proxies and Tor, including authentication flows, CSRF, JWT and WAF evasion. Safe exploit validation uses real-world tools in non-malicious modes and is described as having no malware or ransomware. Attack Chain Analysis turns web, network and DevGuard findings into directed kill-chain graphs with up to 20 attack paths at depth five or less. Deployment options include SaaS, dedicated PaaS and fully air-gapped on-premises installations. Teams can create Jira tickets from verified findings and use the REST API to trigger scans, retrieve results and automate reporting. Enterprise integrations include SIEM export, Jira and ServiceNow ticketing, SAML 2.0 or OIDC SSO, and per-cycle compliance evidence packages. Pricing includes a free DevGuard plan and Vibe Coding at €23/mo.
