NowSecure, the leader in standards-based mobile app security and privacy software, announced the introduction of its latest solution, NowSecure Mobile Pen Testing as a Service (PTaaS), which will bridge the gap between manual and automated mobile security assessments for continuous security.
NowSecure PTaaS is designed to provide mobile developers and security teams with a more cost-effective and efficient pen testing solution. The solution combines periodic expert manual assessments with continuous automated testing to optimize comprehensive coverage at a higher frequency. With this combination, the all-inclusive portal and service can instantly discover concerns early in the developer pipeline, provide consulting help to repair security issues promptly, and accelerate the release of high-quality software into production.
