"We're honored to become part of Coalfire, and to bring a new digital experience to continuous cloud and application pen testing to our combined customers. Our technology, combined with Coalfire's unparalleled reputation in adversary simulation and pen testing, puts our solution on the cutting edge of providing a new standard in pen testing."
"As cloud security becomes a top-down, centrally managed problem to solve, Coalfire saw the need for real-time assessments, vulnerability management, and rapid remediation for our clients' digital footprints. In our 20th anniversary year, we're pleased to bring Coalfire's pen testing capabilities to the next level with the talented Neuralys team."
