Cobalt smashes previous record with 21 Badges in G2’s Summer 2025 Report

I’m incredibly grateful to our customers and proud of our team. Thanks to the voices of those who use and trust the Cobalt Offensive Security Platform every day, Cobalt has been recognized with 21 badges in G2’s Summer 2025 Report. This honor reflects the real-world impact we’re making together—helping organizations strengthen their security posture through expert-driven pentesting. I’m humbled by the feedback, energized by the recognition, and more committed than ever to delivering value that earns your trust.

Here are a few of my favorite reviews from our very own customers: 

Pentest as a service is a great business model

“Cobalt is the best pentesting company I worked with. What makes them different is the manual testing of any discovered vulnerability rather than running automated pentests. They use common tools for this which would be available to everyone but at the same time they compensate that with their skills and knowledge. Cobalt is the only company I know which is very transparent on their testers' recruitment criteria and staging.”

- A Verified Chief Security Information Officer

Very Flexible Solution

“Cobalt is a great company to partner with. We have been able to easily integrate their findings with our ticket and vulnerability management solutions, so that we can prioritize their findings in similar ways and ensure engineering teams get visibility on them quickly. The solution and Cobalt team are great to work with. It's easy to use and achieve our goals with.”

- Jesse B., Senior Director, Security Operations, GoTo

Communication at its best!

“The Offensive Security platform is great, they have thought about every detail when preparing for the test.”

- Dimitar K., Infosec, Timify
