San Francisco had no shortage of cybersecurity energy last week, and the Raxis team was right in the middle of it. We packed our bags, headed to the Moscone Center, and spent four action-packed days at the RSA Conference 2026, and, honestly, it did not disappoint.
If you’ve never been to RSAC, picture thousands of security professionals, CISOs, vendors, and curious minds descending on one place to talk about everything from the latest threat intelligence to the future of AI in security. It’s loud, it’s busy, and it’s exactly the kind of place where meaningful conversations happen. For Raxis, it was a chance to meet the people who care most about what we do every day: keeping organizations secure through expert-led penetration testing.
Day 1: The Doors Open (and So Do the Conversations)
Monday kicked off with the usual buzz of badge pickup and attendees getting the lay of the land, but it didn’t take long before the foot traffic picked up and the conversations started flowing. We had a steady stream of visitors stopping by the Raxis booth, curious about our approach to pentesting and what sets us apart from the noise.
We caught up with Tim Semchenko at the end of Day 1 to get his first impressions of the conference. Check out what he had to say:
Day 2: Partners, Pipelines, and Plenty of Handshakes
By Tuesday, the booth was humming. One of the highlights of RSAC 2026 for us was the number of technology and channel partners who stopped by specifically to talk about offering penetration testing to their own customers through Raxis. Whether you’re an MSSP, a consulting firm, or a technology provider, there’s a real opportunity to add high-quality pentest services to your portfolio, and our partner program is built to make that easy.
It was clear that the market demand for pentesting is growing, and partners are looking for a trusted name to back them up. Spoiler: that’s us.
Day 3: Direct Customer Interest Was Through the Roof
Wednesday brought a fresh wave of visitors. This time, a strong showing of organizations actively looking for penetration testing for their own environments. We talked with teams from across industries: finance, healthcare, SaaS, critical infrastructure, you name it. Many were evaluating pentest providers for the first time; others were looking to level up from a checkbox compliance test to something more meaningful.
We walked a lot of people through Raxis Strike, our AI-augmented, expert-led approach that combines real human expertise with advanced tooling, as well as Raxis Attack, our PTaaS solution for organizations that want continuous testing and real-time results. The interest was genuine, and the conversations were deep.
Day 4: Wrapping Up With a Full Notebook (and Tired Feet)
By Thursday, we had talked ourselves hoarse in the best possible way. The final day of RSAC 2026 gave us a chance to reconnect with folks we’d met earlier in the week, swap final business cards, and soak in the last of the conference energy before the Moscone Center emptied out.
The Raxis team wrapped things up with some reflections on the week and what’s ahead.
The Takeaway: Penetration Testing Is Top of Mind
If RSAC 2026 told us anything, it’s that cybersecurity is not slowing down and neither is the demand for quality penetration testing services. Organizations are under more pressure than ever to demonstrate that their defenses actually hold up, not just on paper, but against real-world attack techniques.
Whether you’re an organization looking to run your first pentest, a seasoned security team exploring PTaaS for continuous coverage, or a partner who wants to bring best-in-class pentest services to your customers, the Raxis team is ready to talk.

See you at the next one. 🔐
