CPT – Continuous Pentest with MonPulse Annual penetration tests leave months of unvalidated exposure between engagements. CPT, MonPulse's continuous penetration testing module, runs automated, persistent attack simulations against your infrastructure and applications around the clock — validating your defenses every day, not once a year.
What is CPT?
CPT is MonPulse's Continuous Pentest module. It deploys a safe, controlled exploitation engine that simulates real-world attack scenarios against your web applications, APIs, and network services — continuously re-testing after every change, patch, or deployment to ensure new vulnerabilities are caught before attackers find them.
Web & API Security Testing
Network Penetration Testing
Credential Attack Simulation
Remediation Validation
Tests web applications and APIs for OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities and business logic flaws continuously.
Simulates network-layer attacks including privilege escalation, lateral movement, and service exploitation.
Tests authentication mechanisms against password spraying, brute-force, and credential stuffing.
Automatically re-tests previously identified vulnerabilities after remediation to confirm they are resolved.
Features and Advantages of the CPT Module
Provides continuous, evidence-based validation of your security controls without the wait for periodic engagements.
Safe Exploitation Engine
Executes real exploit techniques in a controlled manner that demonstrates impact without causing service disruption or data loss in production environments.
Full Attack Chain Simulation
Chains individual vulnerabilities into multi-step attack paths, revealing how an attacker could pivot from initial access to critical asset compromise.
Developer-Friendly Reporting
Delivers per-finding remediation guidance, proof-of-concept evidence, and severity ratings that development teams can act on immediately.
Keeps your defenses continuously validated against the latest attack techniques, providing evidence-based assurance that your security controls actually work.

Frequently asked questions
CPT is MonPulse's Continuous Pentest module that runs automated, persistent attack simulations against your infrastructure and applications to validate security controls in real time.
Yes. CPT's safe exploitation engine is designed to demonstrate impact without causing service disruption, data corruption, or unintended side effects in live environments.
Traditional pentests are point-in-time engagements. CPT runs continuously, catching vulnerabilities introduced by new deployments, configuration changes, or emerging attack techniques immediately.
CPT covers web and API testing, network penetration, authentication attacks, and multi-step attack chain simulation across your entire in-scope environment.
Each finding includes a severity rating, proof-of-concept evidence, and step-by-step remediation guidance, with a real-time dashboard tracking open, in-progress, and resolved issues.
