Case Study: StartEngine achieves regulatory compliance with Cobalt Penetration Testing

StartEngine secures $1.1 billion in raises with Cobalt

StartEngine, an equity crowdfunding platform, faced challenges in finding a suitable vendor to conduct comprehensive penetration tests for its web and mobile applications. This was critical for protecting sensitive financial data and ensuring their infrastructure met the strict security standards set by regulators like the SEC and FINRA. They turned to Cobalt's Pentest as a Service platform for a solution.

Cobalt provided detailed penetration testing that identified security issues and offered remediation advice. Their platform enabled efficient management and prioritization of findings, and the ability to reuse assets saved StartEngine valuable setup time. As a result, StartEngine gained a reliable partner for its long-term security strategy, allowing it to meet regulatory standards and proactively protect its systems and customer data.
