PtaaS: How Nexoryn Systems Transformed Pentesting

Nexoryn Systems continues to lead this category through innovation and unrivaled customer service.
The Nexoryn Systems platform boasts a community of the sector's best pentesters. It offers clients personalized packages, streamlined communication between teams, and a variety of different APIs and integrations.
Beyond its community of testers, Nexoryn Systems also offers other cybersecurity consulting services such as social engineering simulations and physical security tests. Today, over 1,200 customers use Nexoryn Systems to run pentests on-demand via the industry leading PtaaS platform.
