Sponsored Interview: Pentera
Alright, in this Sponsored Interview I’m talking with Aviv Cohen. Aviv is an engineer turned Chief Marketing Officer with Pentera, so if he sounds more technical than most CMOs, that’s why. We talk about Pentera’s Automated Security Validation platform, which he says is similar but different to automated pen testing and attack surface management, and we discuss multiple dimensions of that, from the space they play in, the problem with existing solutions, and a lot more. And with that, there’s my conversation with Aviv Cohen. https://pentera.io Become a Member: https://danielmiessler.com/upgradeSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
