CyCognito

CyCognito provides an external attack surface management platform that discovers, tests and prioritizes risks across an organization's entire external footprint. Its autonomous systems map the attack surface as an outsider would see it, exposing shadow risk and blind spots that conventional asset inventories miss. The CyCognito platform is used by large enterprises and Fortune 500 organizations, among them Colgate-Palmolive, Tesco, Panasonic and Hitachi.

The company was founded by veterans of national intelligence agencies. Its work sits at the intersection of security research and software engineering: security analysts turn complex data into actionable intelligence, while engineers build at internet scale using Python, Kubernetes and cloud-native technologies. Technical domains include external attack surface management, autonomous systems, adversary emulation, data analytics and threat intelligence.

CyCognito describes itself as a tight-knit team that moves quickly, learns continuously and takes ownership of outcomes. The stated standard is that "good enough isn't enough" when protecting customers, with curiosity driving innovation and collaboration supporting execution.
