Penetration Testing as a Service (PTaaS) is a subscription model for penetration testing that replaces the once-a-year engagement with continuous, on-demand testing by real pentesters. You get year-round coverage, findings reported as they’re validated, and manual penetration testing that keeps pace with every release instead of lagging a quarter behind it.
Continuous by Design
Traditional pentests are point-in-time: scope, schedule, test, report, repeat next year. PTaaS makes testing an always-on service, so coverage doesn’t expire the day your environment changes.
More Than a Vulnerability Scan
Some vendors sell automated scanning with a dashboard and call it PTaaS. A scan flags known issues; it can’t chain weaknesses, abuse business logic, or prove real impact. True PTaaS keeps human testers at the center.
Findings You Can Act On Today
No waiting weeks for a PDF. Validated findings reach your team in real time, with the detail needed to reproduce, prioritize, and fix while the context is fresh.
Testing That Moves With Your SDLC
PTaaS plugs into how you ship: new code, new features, and fixes get tested on demand, and retesting confirms remediation without opening a new engagement.
Built for Faster, Better Pentesting
Trusted pentesters, concise reporting, and a workflow built for busy teams.
Your Code Ships Faster Than You Test
Agile teams push updates weekly or daily. A point-in-time pentest only validates the version that existed during the engagement. Every release after that is untested, and every untested release is a risk.
Scanners Alone Don’t Cut It
Most PTaaS providers lean heavily on automated scanning and call it continuous testing. Raxis Attack pairs AI-augmented automation with hands-on expert hacking. Real penetration testers exploiting real vulnerabilities, not dashboards full of scanner noise.
You Need Results Now, Not Next Quarter
Traditional reports arrive weeks after an engagement ends. With Raxis Attack, findings appear in real time through the Raxis One portal. Your team can start remediating while testing is still underway.
Continuous Pentesting, Human-Led
Kick off a penetration test in as little as 24 hours.
Raxis Attack combines human expertise, workflow integration, and on-demand retesting in one platform. We bring more than 15 years of offensive security experience, run hundreds of penetration tests a year, and hold a 5.0 rating on Clutch.
Test as often as you need, after every sprint, release, or infrastructure change. We retest every fix as many times as needed and confirm it holds. No per-test fees and no retest fees, ever.
Direct Engineer Access
No ticket queues. No AI chatbots. Raxis Attack gives you a direct line to a US-based pentester working your engagement. Ask questions, discuss findings, and collaborate on fixes.
DevSecOps Integration
Connect Raxis One to GitHub, GitLab, Jira, Slack, and Teams. Findings flow into your existing workflows, so developers see vulnerabilities in the tools they already use every day.
AI-Augmented, Human-Led Testing
AI-powered tools accelerate reconnaissance and expand coverage. Expert testers validate, chain exploits, and demonstrate real business impact.
Real-Time Findings
Every vulnerability appears in the Raxis One portal as it is discovered, with proof-of-concept screenshots, risk ratings, and remediation guidance. No waiting for a final report.
Unlimited testing through the Raxis One platform. Real-time findings, DevSecOps integration, and ongoing expert assessments that keep pace with your release cycles. Built for teams shipping continuously.
Comprehensive manual pentesting combined with AI-augmented automation for thorough point-in-time evaluations. Ideal for annual compliance, pre-launch validation, or targeted assessments of specific environments.
Continuous, expert-led testing across every layer of your stack. Each focus area links to the dedicated methodology Raxis uses for in-depth, point-in-time engagements as well.
Manual exploitation of authentication flaws, business logic errors, injection vulnerabilities, and session management weaknesses, well beyond OWASP Top 10 scanning.

Predictable Pricing for Continuous Penetration Testing
Raxis Attack is a subscription-based PTaaS model built for ongoing validation, recurring retesting, and better long-term value than one-off pentests.
Subscription, Not One-Time
Predictable annual spend covers recurring testing throughout the term. Unlimited access costs typically 2 to 3 times a traditional penetration test per year.
1–3 Year Commitments
Annual subscription is typical; multi-year commitments (1–3 years) improve planning, budgeting, and total value.
Recurring Testing
Validate after code changes, releases, or infra updates without negotiating new projects. Retest fixes as often as needed.
Better Value Over Time
More validation cycles for the spend. Continuous coverage beats the cost of repeated standalone tests.
Cost?
Prices start at $25K for one year depending on the scope. Three year deals often work out as better value per year.
How Raxis Attack PTaaS Works
Guided by the MITRE ATT&CK framework and grounded in NIST SP 800-115.
01
Scoping and Onboarding
We define your scope, connect Raxis One to your DevSecOps toolchain, and establish ongoing access. Your dedicated engineer learns your environment from day one.
02
Continuous Reconnaissance
AI-powered tools and manual OSINT continuously monitor your attack surface for new exposures, configuration changes, and emerging vulnerabilities as your environment evolves.
03
Expert Exploitation & Validation
Our testers manually exploit discovered vulnerabilities, chaining weaknesses, escalating privileges, and demonstrating real impact with proof-of-concept evidence.
04
Real-Time Reporting
Findings appear in Raxis One as they’re confirmed. Prioritized by risk, with screenshots, attack narratives, and specific remediation steps your team can act on immediately.
05
Remediation Collaboration
Your team fixes. We verify. Communicate directly with your assigned engineer through the portal, get questions answered, and confirm each vulnerability is properly closed.
06
Iterate & Expand
New code deployed? Infrastructure changed? Trigger another round on demand. Raxis Attack adapts to your release cadence, not the other way around.
Post-Engagement Feedback
“I was skeptical of PTaaS. Turns out the unlimited testing and direct connection to the pentester is incredibly valuable for development speed.”

Raxis Hack Stories
Our stories are based on real events encountered by Raxis engineers. Some
details have been altered or omitted to protect customer identities.
Our customer is a large enterprise with thousands of IP addresses and hundreds of services. With this large attack surface in place, they initially engaged Raxis for traditional internal and external network penetration tests. Pleased with the information they obtained there, they rolled up their sleeves and began knocking out critical and high risk remediations. But they didn’t stop there. These folks know that the cybersecurity threat landscape is always changing, so they made the leap to Raxis Attack.
Continuous, human-led PTaaS replaced the annual scramble, and the Raxis One dashboard became their daily command center. Now, the moment a Raxis tester confirms a finding, it materializes on their dashboard with a proof-of-concept screenshot, a risk-rating, an attack narrative, and prescriptive remediation steps. When something new appears, they don’t wait. They use the chat with a pentester feature to work directly with the Raxis pentest team if they have questions, and they remediate the findings in real time. Broadcast poisoning, once a big vector in their environment, is now a no-go for attackers. Their team is ready to squelch each new vulnerability as soon as it appears.
The result? A once-vulnerable environment is now one of the hardest targets we test. Critical and high risk findings are rare and are retired in days when they do appear. The gap that annual testing used to leave wide open has effectively vanished. This is what continuous penetration testing looks like in practice: real testers, real exploits, real-time findings, and a security team that stays one step ahead because they never stop hearing from the people trying to break in.
FAQ: Penetration Testing as a Service (PTaaS)
What is penetration testing as a service (PTaaS)?
PTaaS is a continuous, platform-based approach to penetration testing that replaces one-and-done annual assessments with ongoing, on-demand testing. Raxis Attack combines unlimited human-led testing with AI-augmented automation, delivered through the Raxis One portal with real-time findings and DevSecOps integration.
How is PTaaS different from traditional penetration testing?
A traditional penetration test is a point-in-time assessment. You test once, get a report, and wait until next year. PTaaS provides continuous testing that keeps pace with your development cycles, with real-time findings and unlimited retesting as your environment evolves.
What testing is included with Raxis Attack?
External networks, internal networks, cloud environments, web applications, APIs, wireless networks, and social engineering. All under a single subscription with unlimited testing.
How does Raxis Attack integrate with DevSecOps workflows?
Raxis One connects to GitHub, GitLab, Jira, Slack, and Microsoft Teams. Findings flow into your existing tools so developers and security teams can remediate without leaving their workflow.
Can I talk directly to my penetration tester?
Yes. Every Raxis Attack engagement includes direct access to your assigned engineer through the Raxis One portal. No ticket queues, no chatbots. Real-time collaboration with the person testing your systems.
Does Raxis Attack satisfy compliance requirements?
Yes. Every assessment follows NIST SP 800-115 and supports PCI DSS, HIPAA, SOC 2, GLBA, ISO 27001, CMMC, and other frameworks. Reports are audit-ready and generated directly from the platform.
How often can I run tests?
Unlimited. Test after every sprint, release, or infrastructure change. Target a single application, a network segment, or your entire scoped environment, as frequently as you need. Concurrent testing on the same scope isn't supported.
What’s the difference between Raxis Attack and Raxis Strike?
Raxis Attack is continuous PTaaS with unlimited testing, DevSecOps integration, and real-time findings. Raxis Strike is a focused, point-in-time engagement, ideal for annual compliance, pre-launch validation, or targeted assessments. Both use the same team and the same AI-augmented methodology.
