CONTINUOUS PENTESTING
Continuous pentesting
One pentest per year is a snapshot in time. Our Pentest Agent tests continuously with every release, so you always know where you are exposed.

What is continuous pentesting?
Continuous pentesting — also known as PTaaS (Pentest as a Service) — is an ongoing test model where our Pentest Agent monitors your attack surface with every release and every change. Instead of a yearly snapshot, you get continuous visibility into new vulnerabilities. Critical findings are reported immediately with reproduction steps and fix suggestions. Certified experts verify quality in the background, so you always have up-to-date evidence for auditors and compliance requirements.
How it works
1 · Connect & scope
You connect your environment to our platform once. You define the scope: which applications, APIs and endpoints the Pentest Agent continuously monitors.
2 · Continuous testing on every release
On every deployment the Pentest Agent automatically retests the full attack surface, so new code never goes live unexamined.
3 · Immediate alert on new vulnerability
Critical findings are reported immediately with proof of impact and concrete fix suggestions — not buried in a PDF weeks later.
4 · Up-to-date evidence for compliance
Ongoing test results provide current evidence for NIS2, DORA and ISO 27001 — not an outdated annual report.
Continuous pentesting vs annual pentest vs standalone scanners
| Continuous pentesting (DEFION) | Annual pentest | Standalone scanners | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Detection speed | Continuous, on every release | Once a year | Periodic, manual |
| Coverage on changes | Full, automatic | None — until the next pentest | Limited, shallow |
| Proof of impact | Yes, with exploitation | Yes | Rarely |
| Compliance currency | Always current | Goes stale quickly | No compliance evidence |
Frequently asked questions
What is continuous pentesting?
An ongoing pentest-as-a-service (PTaaS): our Pentest Agent tests continuously alongside every release rather than once a year, so new vulnerabilities surface immediately.
How is this different from an annual pentest?
An annual pentest is a snapshot in time; continuous pentesting covers every release and every change to your attack surface.
Will I be alerted when new vulnerabilities are found?
Yes. Critical findings are reported immediately with reproduction steps and fix suggestions.
Is this suitable for compliance?
Yes. Ongoing test results support NIS2, DORA and ISO 27001 with up-to-date evidence rather than an outdated annual report.
Continuous pentesting is part of our pentesting services. Want quick insight into your attack surface with a one-off AI pentest, or an in-depth look at your external exposure via an external pentest? We cover that too.
