Sprocket Security
Sprocket Security — Technology-Powered. Human-Verified. Sprocket Security is a technology-powered continuous penetration testing platform that eliminates the blind spots left by annual testing. Traditional pentests give you a point-in-time snapshot and then leave you exposed for the other 345 days of the year — while your infrastructure keeps changing. Sprocket closes that gap by combining automation with US-based human pentesters who validate what actually matters, so your security posture is tested continuously, not once a quarter or once a year.
