Automated Penetration Testing for modern security teams
Security evolves every day. Real-world attackers evolve even faster. Traditional manual penetration testing can’t keep up.
We identify vulnerabilities, validate exploitability through secure testing, and provide real-time, developer-ready fixes with near-zero false positives.
Patrowl combines three capabilities in one platform:
Continuous attack surface discovery (including Shadow IT)
Automated penetration testing (real exploit attempts, not scans)
Human validation for accuracy and safe decision-making

Features
How does our penetration testing software work?
Discover your attack surface
Patrowl identifies all exposed assets, including unknown and shadow systems.
Covers: domains & subdomains, IPs & ranges, ports & services, APIs, cloud resources, SaaS applications, DNS & certificates, mail infrastructure, web technologies.
Advanced Asset Intelligence:
Each asset is enriched with metadata (technology, port, service, criticality, BU, environment).
This allows you to:
Filter assets by risk, tech stack or owner
Build targeted test campaigns
Prioritize based on exposure and importance
Track changes continuously
Automated penetration testing with attacker logic
Capabilities:
Real exploit chaining using graph theory
Logic flaw detection
Safe exploitation & controlled post-exploitation
Detection of known CVEs & emerging threats
Black-box methodology aligned with PTES & NIST
Frequency configurable (hourly → weekly)
The goal: find what is actually exploitable, not what is theoretically vulnerable
Validate findings & prioritize what matters
All critical findings go through expert review before delivery.
You get:
Screenshots & proof-of-concept
Full exploit path
CVSS + EPSS + business impact scoring
Clear remediation guidance
Automatic ticket creation (Jira, ServiceNow, API)
Your team only sees what is real, not noise.
Automatically retest & prove the fix
Fixing is not enough. You need proof.
Patrowl provides:
One-click retest
Scheduled retest cycles
Real-time status dashboards
PDF, CSV and API exports
Slack, Teams and Jira notifications
Fix → verify → repeat.

FAQ
What is an automated penetration test?
An automated penetration test is a security assessment that uses specialized tools to detect vulnerabilities across your IT environment efficiently and continuously.
Unlike manual testing, where a security expert (pentester/ethical hacker) simulates attacks to uncover complex or hidden flaws, automated testing quickly identifies common weaknesses, like outdated software, misconfigurations, or weak passwords, while being safe for production systems.
With Patrowl, critical findings are also verified by our in-house pentesters, ensuring accuracy, reducing false positives, and providing actionable results you can trust.
Manual penetration test or automated penetration testing?
Manual penetration testing
A manual test provides deeper, tailored analysis. Security experts can adapt their methods, explore unconventional attack paths, and uncover complex or context-specific vulnerabilities that automated tools may miss. It’s highly precise, but also slower and more expensive — making it ideal for targeted assessments or critical assets.
Automated penetration testing
Automated testing is designed for speed, scale, and frequency. It continuously scans large or evolving infrastructures, identifies common and emerging vulnerabilities, and reduces the workload on security and IT teams. In France, very few solutions offer true automated penetration testing — which is exactly where Patrowl brings unique value.
How is automated penetration testing different from a vulnerability scan?
Patrowl’s automated penetration testing goes far beyond a basic scan.
The platform combines detection, controlled exploitation, application logic checks, and attack scenarios to validate the real exploitability of vulnerabilities.
Most importantly, our in-house pentesters verify critical findings, filter out noise, and confirm results when necessary.
The outcome: reliable, contextualized, and actionable alerts, not just a raw list of CVEs.
Can automated penetration testing replace a manual penetration test?
Not entirely, manual testing remains crucial for complex scenarios or deep-dive analyses.
Patrowl’s automation handles routine, large-scale, and frequent tests, while our in-house pentesters review sensitive findings, confirm exploits, and refine results.
This approach delivers the best of both worlds: the speed and coverage of automation combined with human accuracy.
Is automated penetration testing safe for production environments?
Absolutely. Patrowl is designed to be non-destructive.
Tests are controlled, protected against risky actions (DoS, excessive brute force, system disruption), and carefully calibrated to avoid impacting production.
Additionally, our pentesters supervise sensitive detections to ensure all validations remain safe and fully controlled.
You get continuous coverage while keeping your systems stable and secure.
