Continuous Security Testing

Continuous Security Testing for Web Applications

Security testing that keeps pace with your deployments. Nautillo Pro completes a full OWASP Top 10 scan in 3–15 minutes — fast enough to run before and after every release, so vulnerabilities are caught close to when they're introduced.

Why continuous security testing matters

Annual pentests were designed for software that changes once a year. Modern applications ship daily. The gap between tests is where vulnerabilities live.

Run after every release

Launch a full scan before or after each deployment. At 3–15 minutes per run, security testing fits inside a normal release window — not a separate calendar event.

Compare runs manually

Every scan is saved. Open two results side by side and see exactly which vulnerabilities appeared since the last run. Spot regressions before they reach users.

Results in minutes, not weeks

A full OWASP Top 10 scan completes in 3–15 minutes. No scheduling lag, no report writing delay, no waiting for a tester's availability.

Scan history across plans

Starter saves 30 days of scan history. Professional saves up to 12 months. Business saves up to 24 months — giving you a long-term view of your security posture.

Fast enough to run frequently

Because each scan completes in minutes, you can realistically run security tests weekly, per sprint, or per release — not just quarterly.

HTTP proof for every finding

Every confirmed vulnerability includes the exact request and response. Evidence is preserved per scan so you can track what changed between runs.

Regression security testing — how it works

Fixed vulnerabilities come back. A dependency update, a config change, a refactor — any of these can reintroduce a path that was previously closed. Running scans regularly and comparing saved results is how you catch this.

1

Baseline established on first scan

Your first scan maps the attack surface and confirms all findings with HTTP evidence. This becomes the baseline every subsequent run is compared against.

2

Run again after your next release

Every scan is saved independently. Run before and after a release, then open both results to compare findings — which appeared, which are gone, which remain.

3

HTTP evidence preserved per scan

Each saved scan includes the full HTTP request and response for every confirmed finding. Evidence doesn't expire between runs — you can always go back.

4

Spot regressions manually

If a vulnerability you fixed reappears in a later scan, you'll see it in the new results with fresh HTTP proof. Evidence retention is 7–60 days depending on your plan.

Continuous vs periodic penetration testing

Periodic pentests have their place — compliance mandates, deep manual review. But for ongoing coverage, continuous testing is the only approach that matches the pace of development.
