Top Automated Pentesting Tools Every DevSecOps Team Should Know

Jun 17, 2025 By Ruben Camerlynck In Aikido
Penetration testing (“pentesting”) has shifted from a once-a-year checkbox to a continuous necessity. In fact, by 2025 the pentesting industry is expected to hit $4.5 billion as companies race to find vulnerabilities before attackers do. Yet 38% of companies only run 1–2 pentests per year – leaving long gaps where new flaws can creep in. That’s a dangerous game when 73% of breaches involve exploiting web app vulnerabilities.

12 Penetration Testing Myths Blocking MSP Revenue, Margins, and Client Trust

May 30, 2025 By Phani Deepak Akella In Indusface
Managed Service Providers (MSPs) sit on the front line of cyber‑defence for thousands of small and midsize businesses. Yet many still hesitate to add penetration testing (pentesting) to their security stack, largely because of persistent myths—myths that are steadily being dismantled by real‑world breach data. Fresh breach evidence makes the cost of that hesitation impossible to ignore.

The future of security isn’t speed; it’s strategy. Cybersecurity in 2025 is caught in a paradox: the tools are getting faster, but the threats are getting smarter. With 5.3 vulnerabilities discovered every minute across thousands of assets, organizations aren’t short on data; they’re overwhelmed by it. But volume isn’t the headline.

Reviewing Penetration Test Pricing In 2025: A Practical Guide for UK and EU Buyers

May 22, 2025 By SecuritySenses In SecuritySenses
Penetration testing costs in the UK and EU can range from a few thousand pounds to well over £20,000. At a glance, many of these tests look the same. So why the price gap? In 2025, pricing models haven't changed much. Most tests are still priced per day, but the complexity of what's being tested has changed. The rise of custom internal tools (many "vibe coded" by non-IT or security teams), shadow IT, SaaS stacks, and cloud sprawl means that scoping a pen test properly takes more time and care.
