The platform observes real browser execution, not configuration, capturing every script, pixel, and third or fourth-party tool as it runs, and using AI to detect malicious code, unauthorized data flows, and behavioral change the moment it happens. It deploys with zero code changes, zero agents, and no access to customer data, typically live within one business day. One engine powers four hubs, each answering a different question about the same website: Security Hub detects web threats that traditional tools like WAFs miss, from Magecart skimming to AI-generated scripts. Privacy Hub verifies user data is only collected and shared as authorized, supporting GDPR, CCPA, HIPAA, and PIPEDA. Offensive Hub runs continuous, agentic penetration testing at up to 10x the capacity of manual pentesting. PCI Module automates PCI DSS 4.0.1 Requirements 6.4.3 and 11.6.1 with audit-ready evidence. Together they give Security, Privacy, Compliance, and Digital teams one 360-degree view of web risk instead of four disconnected tools.

About Expose all the hidden security gaps in your organization using nation-state grade technology. CyCognito’s Global Bot Network uses attacker-like reconnaissance techniques to scan, discover and fingerprint billions of digital assets all over the world. No input or configuration needed. Uncover the unknown. The Discovery Engine uses graph data modeling to map your organization’s full attack surface. You get a clear view of every single asset an attacker could reach — what they are and how they relate to your business. Using CyCognito’s proprietary risk-detection methods, the attack simulator identifies risks per asset and discovers potential attack vectors. It doesn’t affect business operations and works without deployment, configuration or whitelisting. CyCognito scores each risk based its attractiveness to attackers and impact on the business, dramatically reducing the thousands of attack vectors organizations may have to those critical few dozen that need your focus	About AppVision provides critical technology that protects apps against hacking and malicious threats.
