Patrowl is a French-based cybersecurity company that focuses on automated penetration testing and continuous vulnerability management. The company offers a solution that allows businesses to uncover security vulnerabilities that may be targeted by cybercriminals to compromise their systems. Established by Florent Montel, Nicolas Mattiocco, and Vladimir Kolla, who were experienced in the cybersecurity sector, the main idea behind the creation of Patrowl was to fill the gaps in static security assessments due to the fast changes in today's threat landscape. Using the Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) model, Patrowl provides a service that allows companies to monitor the system continuously and carry out automatic penetration testing in order to detect vulnerabilities.

Serving a growing portfolio of customers across industries, providing companies with innovative security solutions based on technology. Being a company that specialises in offensive cybersecurity, Patrowl is able to combine technology and innovation along with transparency and customer-centricity to protect companies from new cyber attacks. With the help of continuous product development and a multidisciplinary team, Patrowl creates its unique offer in the field of cybersecurity.

Solutions Offered by Patrowl

Advanced External Attack Surface Management

Patrowl help organisations get complete visibility of their internet-facing assets by using its Advanced External Attack Surface Management (EASM). Created specifically for addressing the increasing complexity of digital infrastructures, the system constantly discovers, inventories, and monitors all kinds of exposed assets, including domains, sub-domains, IP addresses, cloud services, and shadow IT. By ensuring real-time visibility into an organization’s external attack surface, Patrowl provides the security team with an opportunity to detect any unknown and unmanaged assets that could become entry points for cyber attacks. Moreover, the system is able to detect misconfigurations, monitor actively exploited vulnerabilities, and prioritize risks by taking into account not just the volume, but real-world exploitability. The combination of threat intelligence and continuous monitoring allows organisations to act proactively against threats and receive minimal false alarms.

Continuous Penetration Testing as a Service (PTaaS)

Patrowl changes the way traditional penetration testing works and turns it into a continuous, scalable cybersecurity function using the Penetration Testing as a Service (PTaaS) platform. Using a combination of advanced automation and manual verification by certified penetration testers, this platform offers continuous assessment of external applications, APIs, websites, cloud services, and other internet-accessible resources without affecting production systems. This differs from traditional testing approaches in that this platform prioritises vulnerabilities based on technical severity, exploitability, and business impact, allowing security professionals to concentrate on critical threats. With clear remediation advice, automated retesting, and integration with existing enterprise processes, vulnerability management is streamlined and made more efficient with fewer false positives. The continuous testing approach offered by Patrowl complies with known cybersecurity standards and helps organisations comply with regulations.

Continuous Vulnerability Assessment & Remediation

Organisations can leverage Patrowl to move away from their reactionary approaches to cybersecurity and adopt a proactive defence system because of Continuous Vulnerability Assessment and Remediation. The solution performs continuous scanning of the internet-connected assets to detect newly discovered vulnerabilities, assess risks, and prioritise the vulnerabilities based on their exploitability. Unlike other security tools that depend on security audits at certain intervals, Patrowl provides continuous monitoring, which minimises the period of time that attackers have before performing attacks. Organisations are provided with the contextually relevant information on how to remediate the detected vulnerabilities, verification of whether the vulnerability fix was done, and the status of the vulnerabilities. Furthermore, vulnerability management has been simplified because of the adoption of automation, which enhances efficiency and cyber-resilience.

Continuous Security Monitoring & Exposure Management

Patrowl offers a wide range of Continuous Security Monitoring solutions for organisations to be able to detect, monitor, and protect themselves from cyber threats in real-time. The Patrowl solution provides a continuous overview of the changes taking place in the digital environment, threat detection, monitoring of exposed assets, and verification of the remediation actions to ensure that organisations always keep themselves in an updated state in terms of security. By means of continuous asset discovery, threat monitoring, vulnerability detection, and automatic verification, Patrowl allows security teams to react quickly enough to new threats to be able to prevent their exploitation. At the same time, the solution integrates well with existing IT service management and collaboration systems and thus allows remediation processes to become a part of everyday security operations. Moreover, Continuous Security Monitoring ensures regulatory compliance due to audit-ready reporting, full remediation history, and security metrics.
