Summary

Hide β–²

Automation is transforming pentest delivery, addressing inefficiencies in traditional reporting methods. Organizations are adopting automated platforms to streamline the delivery, triage, and remediation of pentest findings. This shift enables faster insights, tighter handoffs, and clearer paths to remediation. Automated delivery platforms like PlexTrac consolidate findings from various sources, route them to the appropriate teams in real-time, and standardize remediation workflows. This approach reduces manual effort, accelerates response times, and improves overall security posture. The transition to automated pentest delivery is driven by the need to manage increasing volumes of findings and align with Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM) practices. Automation helps organizations achieve operational maturity and reduce mean time to remediation (MTTR).
