Pentesterra

Pentesterra is a security orchestration platform combining vulnerability management, automated network and web pentesting, breach and attack simulation, and AI-assisted exploit verification. Its workflow links attack-surface mapping, simulation, and controlled exploitation, prioritizing findings with 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 involving no malware or ransomware. Attack Chain Analysis turns web, network, and DevGuard findings into directed kill-chain graphs, with up to 20 paths at depth five or less. Deployment is available as SaaS, dedicated PaaS, or fully air-gapped on-premises. Integrations include Jira ticket creation from verified findings and a REST API for scans, results, and reporting. Enterprise options add SIEM export, ticketing integrations, SSO, and compliance evidence packages. Plans range from a free DevGuard Free tier to Vibe Coding at €23/month; higher tiers list specific scan and project limits, while Enterprise pricing is custom.
