The challenge of maintaining continuous security validation in complex cloud environments has become increasingly critical for organizations. Ridge Security, a leader in automated penetration testing, has made its flagship AI-powered solution, RidgeBot®, available on the Microsoft Azure Marketplace. This integration enables Azure customers and partners to deploy continuous, AI-driven security validation directly within their Azure environments to identify, validate, and remediate vulnerabilities at scale.
Ridge Security's RidgeBot platform now available on Azure Marketplace.
The AI-powered solution automates penetration testing and security validation.
It identifies attack surfaces and executes safe exploitations autonomously.
The platform generates reports aligned with OWASP and MITRE frameworks.
Offers flexible deployment including managed app and VM options.
Integrates with Microsoft Sentinel for unified security management.
RidgeBot leverages AI-driven automation to autonomously identify attack surfaces, safely execute exploitations, and generate actionable reports aligned with industry standards including OWASP and MITRE frameworks. This approach enables security and DevOps teams to detect, validate, and remediate vulnerabilities faster, reducing risk exposure and strengthening resilience across hybrid and multi-cloud environments. By utilizing Azure's global infrastructure, organizations can unify automated penetration testing and continuous security validation under a single cloud platform.
The platform represents a shift from infrequent manual testing to continuous, data-driven assurance of real-world defenses. This always-on approach helps organizations maintain stronger security postures by continuously validating their defenses against evolving threats rather than relying on periodic assessments that quickly become outdated.
Lydia Zhang, President and Co-Founder of Ridge Security, explained the strategic approach, stating, "At Ridge Security, we believe the best defense is to think like a hacker. RidgeBot on Microsoft Azure Marketplace extends that philosophy by enabling organizations to continuously validate their security posture through autonomous, AI-driven testing. This approach helps customers and partners strengthen defenses, align with CTEM goals, and act on data-backed evidence of risk."
The Azure Marketplace listing provides multiple deployment options tailored to different organizational requirements. Customers can choose a Managed Application subscription for simple monthly billing covering one web application or up to twenty IPs. For greater configuration flexibility, a Virtual Machine Bring-Your-Own-License option is available. Additionally, a Microsoft Sentinel Joint Solution enables centralized management of multiple RidgeBot deployments across on-premise and cloud environments for unified alerts and analytics.
This availability on Azure Marketplace significantly simplifies access to enterprise-grade penetration testing automation, allowing organizations to seamlessly integrate continuous security validation into their existing Azure workflows and infrastructure. The platform's AI-driven approach represents the evolution of traditional penetration testing toward continuous, automated security validation that keeps pace with modern development cycles and threat landscapes.
