Horizon3.ai, a leading provider of autonomous security solutions, recently unveiled their innovative Horizon3.ai Pentesting Services for Compliance. This new offering aims to address the increasing demand for pentesting expertise among organizations struggling to meet their compliance-driven requirements.
With regulatory standards like PCI DSS v4.0, SOC, GDPR, NIST, and CMMC necessitating manual penetration testing to uncover complex logic errors and unknown vulnerabilities, Horizon3.ai’s Pentesting Services for Compliance offers a tailored solution. By embracing the concept of Human-Machine teaming, a team of Offensive Security Certified Professionals (OSCP) conducts pentests according to the specified methodologies for each standard.
Equipped with the NodeZeroTM autonomous pentesting platform, which utilizes artificial intelligence to identify exploitable attack paths beyond traditional vulnerability scanners, the team delivers comprehensive and actionable evaluations of network infrastructures. Clients receive detailed Pentesting Reports and Fix Action Reports, along with access to their results on the NodeZero platform for 12 months to aid in remediation efforts.
One of the standout features of the service is the 1-click verify tool, which allows clients to confirm the effectiveness of their remediation efforts with targeted retesting of identified weaknesses. This eliminates the need for additional consulting engagements to verify issue resolution, streamlining the compliance process for organizations.
James T. Flowers, a Security & Compliance Expert, Auditor, and Consultant, praised Horizon3.ai for introducing the 1-click verify tool, emphasizing its importance in simplifying the remediation process for clients. The tool enables clients to generate proof of remediation with a simple click, providing valuable evidence for audits.
In addition to pentesting services, organizations have the option to integrate their engagement with a bundled subscription to NodeZero for continuous security testing. This comprehensive approach allows organizations to move beyond mere “point-in-time” compliance and enhance their security posture with various operational tests.
As PCI DSS v3.2.1 is set to be retired on March 31, 2024, Horizon3.ai’s Pentesting Services for Compliance are tailored to meet the requirements of organizations subject to annual compliance with PCI DSS v4.0. The new version of the standard introduces more rigorous security practices, underscoring the importance of reliable pentesting methodologies.
Snehal Antani, Co-Founder and CEO of Horizon3.ai, highlighted the significance of offering pentesting services aligned with PCI Security Standards Council guidelines. He emphasized the company’s commitment to providing timely and effective penetration testing to help clients improve their security posture and navigate the evolving threat landscape.
