About Pentesterra

Built by Security Researchers.Trusted by Security Teams.

Pentesterra was founded in 2021 in Italy with a single goal: make automated offensive security as thorough as a skilled red team - without the cost and overhead. We built an end-to-end platform that discovers, verifies, and chains real exploits across your entire attack surface, deployable in SaaS or fully air-gapped on-prem environments.
