New York, New York, September 19th, 2025, CyberNewsWire<\/strong><\/p>\n BreachLock<\/strong><\/a>, the global leader in offensive security, has been recognized as a Sample Vendor for Penetration Testing as a Service (PTaaS) in the 2025 Gartner Hype Cycle for Application Security. <\/p>\n The company was also recognized as a sample vendor for Adversarial Exposure Validation (AEV) in the Gartner report, \u201cFrom Defense to Offense: How to Champion Proactive Cybersecurity.\u201d<\/p>\n This recognition from Gartner, following BreachLock\u2019s designation as a Sample Vendor in multiple other 2025 Hype Cycle reports earlier this year, underscores BreachLock\u2019s commitment to delivering more scalable, flexible, and efficient penetration testing<\/a> and offensive security solutions for modern security teams.<\/p>\n Commenting on the recognition, BreachLock Founder & CEO, Seemant Sehgal, expressed, \u201cIt\u2019s an honor to be recognized by Gartner so consistently over the years as BreachLock continues to innovate and raise the bar not only in penetration testing, but now in adversarial exposure validation<\/a>.\u201d <\/p>\n He added, \u201cOur growing impact and leadership in the market is a direct reflection of our team\u2019s genuine passion for listening and adapting to our clients\u2019 needs, whether it\u2019s more flexibility, scalability, better vulnerability prioritization, support, or innovative new solutions.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n BreachLock\u2019s flexible PTaaS delivery model empowers enterprises to test their full-stack attack surface as broadly and frequently as needed, whether that\u2019s periodically or continuously, by combining the power of human expertise, AI efficiency, and automated scalability into a single solution. <\/p>\n With BreachLock PTaaS<\/a>, security teams can identify their vulnerabilities in real-time, visualize attack paths, and easily prioritize remediation based on actual risk so they can be remediated faster and more effectively.\u00a0<\/p>\n BreachLock Adversarial Exposure Validation, its Gen AI-powered autonomous red teaming engine, enables enterprises to launch their own unlimited, multi-step attack scenarios in just a few clicks on demand or continuously. <\/p>\n AEV thinks and moves like a real attacker, leveraging live threat intelligence, pivoting, and moving laterally to reveal where defenses succeed or fail. <\/p>\n With BreachLock AEV, security teams can scale coverage without adding headcount and focus remediation efforts on validated risks that could lead to high-impact breaches.\u00a0<\/p>\n Gartner highlights in the Hype Cycle for Application Security that \u201cPTaaS overlaps with adversarial exposure validation (AEV), which is an adjacent market, yet they are different in terms of adoption and operation. <\/p>\n AEV focuses on continuous, real-world attack simulations, while PTaaS emphasizes human expertise and integration with development processes for on-demand or continuous testing,\u201d citing this as an obstacle. <\/p>\n While PTaaS and AEV are at different stages and do have some overlap, BreachLock offers both solutions in a single platform, simplifying adoption and implementation for customers.\u00a0<\/p>\n Looking ahead to the coming years, BreachLock will continue innovating in the offensive security space to help organizations take control of their attack surface, reduce operational complexity, and strengthen defenses as threats evolve. <\/p>\n BreachLock remains committed to delivering forward-thinking solutions that empower security teams to safeguard their organizations with confidence.\u00a0<\/p>\n Gartner does not endorse any vendor, product or service depicted in its research publications, and does not advise technology users to select only those vendors with the highest ratings or other designation. <\/p>\n Gartner research publications consist of the opinions of Gartner research organization and should not be construed as statements of fact.
