What PENTRA is
PENTRA is a penetration testing and vulnerability management platform for internal security teams, pentesters, Blue Teams, SOC analysts, administrators, and managed security providers. It executes MITRE ATT&CK techniques and OWASP test cases at the individual technique level across internal networks, Active Directory, web applications, mobile applications, and APIs. Security engineers validate exploitability, affected objects, severity, and evidence, while Blue Teams mark detections. The Open Points tracker requires in-scope techniques to be executed and validated before an engagement closes. PT++ supports Red Team execution alongside Blue Team detection validation. Findings remain tracked through mitigation and retesting, with new evidence recorded when fixes are checked. PENTRA creates PDF and Microsoft Word reports containing summaries, metrics, screenshots, and mappings to NIST, PCI-DSS, and ISO 27001 controls. It is deployed on-premises, requires no cloud connectivity, and is described as fully air-gappable. Pricing is on request.
Good
- Technique-level MITRE ATT&CK and OWASP testing
- Human validation with proof of execution
- Tracks mitigation and retesting evidence
- On-premises, air-gapped deployment
- PDF and Word reporting with framework mappings
Watch out
- Pricing is available only on request
- Network module requires a Windows agent
- On-premises deployment requires customer infrastructure
Who it suits
PENTRA suits security teams and service providers running structured penetration tests across networks, applications, and APIs. It also fits organizations needing validated findings, detection checks, remediation tracking, and framework-mapped reports.
Verdict
PENTRA combines testing, Blue Team validation, evidence capture, and remediation tracking in one on-premises platform. Its broad coverage and reporting suit structured security engagements, while deployment and agent requirements should be planned.
