Breaking Down PTaaS: Continuous Security for Modern Companies


Listen Later

Most companies continually push code, launch new features, and update their infrastructure. However, for many businesses, security testing occurs only once a year. That gap leaves systems exposed to risks that go unnoticed.


In this episode, Anh Pham, Director of Penetration Testing at Trava, explains the concept of Penetration Testing as a Service (PTaaS). He shares how it works and why it's more beneficial than one-time pentests. You’ll also learn how AI fits into the picture and what to consider when choosing a provider.


Key takeaways:

  • The difference between PTaaS and traditional pentesting
  • How PTaaS supports fast-changing environments
  • The qualities of a trustworthy PTaaS provider
