A Cobalt Case Study

Preview of the dscout Case Study

dscout - Customer Case Study

dscout is a media-rich research SaaS that captures moment-to-moment user experiences across web, iOS, and Android for enterprise customers like Google, Intel, and Microsoft. Facing the challenge of keeping its platform and sensitive data secure while demonstrating that security to high-profile customers, dscout engaged Cobalt and its Agile Penetration Testing Solution to comprehensively test and validate the security of its web, API, and mobile stack.

Cobalt provided a curated Cobalt Core expert plus domain-specific researchers from a global talent pool to run full‑stack penetration tests covering OWASP Top 10 and application‑specific logic, delivering findings through the Cobalt Central platform with repro steps, severity, and suggested fixes. Cobalt also supported re-testing and supplied summary reports dscout could share with stakeholders—resulting in faster remediation, stronger assurance for enterprise customers, and increased confidence that dscout actively protects its applications.
