Feedback

What customers say about Cogent

4.9/5

  • "Attackers move at machine speed. We finally can too. Cogent handles the investigation, coordination, and verification work that used to consume our team."

    Lucas Moody

    CISO, Alteryx

  • “Cogent is the first solution to actually make me excited about vulnerability management. The team is world class and the product innovation is one of the fastest I have seen.”

    Rinki Sethi

    CISO, Upwind

  • "Amazing experience in onboarding and adopting a truly AI native vulnerability management solution. Great in product user experience, the insights reasoned from integrations and AI and the support with last mile remediation (prioritization and routing/triage)."

  • “The vulnerability management lifecycle is a minefield of unknowns. Cogent transforms it, significantly decreasing the time and effort spent on remediation and delivering tangible ROI. The first time I saw the product I was blown away.”

    Scott Howitt

    Former CISO (JCPenney, UKG, MGM)

  • "Cogent is exceptional when it comes to their technical ability to understand our environment and provide context for vulnerability prioritization and remediation. "

  • “You can’t just keep hiring to handle the workload in vulnerability management. Cogent was a smarter way for us to scale.”

    Gourav Nagar

    Dir. of Information Security, ex BILL, Uber, Apple

  • "Cogent has been a delight to work with, they are very high energy and eager to help customers fix and streamline their problems and processes related to vulnerability management. What I like most is that it removes most of the grunt work involved in triaging, prioritizing and fixing security related findings."

  • “Most tools take months to roll out and even longer to show value. Cogent was different. We saw real results right away. It’s the fastest I’ve gone from zero to actual risk reduction.”

    Mo Balakrishnan

    CISO, University of the Pacific

  • "Amazing experience in onboarding and adopting a truly AI native vulnerability management solution. Great in product user experience, the insights reasoned from integrations and AI and the support with last mile remediation (prioritization and routing/triage)."

  • "Every security vendor claims AI but Cogent delivers on that promise. We built our AI strategy on Cogent because it’s the platform where we actually achieve the breakthrough risk reduction and efficiency improvements we expect from AI investment.”

    CEO, CSC Generation
