Trust used to be a handshake.

Then companies started sharing infrastructure, data, and each other's blast radius.
A handshake stopped being enough.

what astra offers

Continuous pentesting that actually
fixes your code

Astra Security is a G2 Pentest Leader, combining autonomous AI-powered
testing with expert-led pentesting, built toward a single goal: making software self-healing. Most pentests end in a
PDF nobody reads. Astra's ends in a fix your developers actually ship.

Autonomous + human-led

AI-powered testing + PTaaS in one workflow

DAST + Cloud + API

Vulnerability scanning across
your stack

CREST-accredited

Trusted by 1,000+ businesses

Founders Story

Good security shouldn't be a privilege.
It should be a given.

Ananda and Shikhil met as engineering students, drawn to the same problem: how systems break, and why nobody notices until it's too late. That curiosity turned into a career and then a company (and if we're being honest, most of their personality).

Long before Astra existed, both spent years uncovering flaws in the products of some of the world's largest companies, teaching them something enterprises would later confirm themselves: real security testing was rare, expensive, and reserved for a handful of companies who can afford genuine depth.

They wanted every engineering team to have access to the same depth, irrespective of their size or budget, so they built it themselves, starting with a handful of clients who took a chance on two people with more conviction than they had headcount.

That conviction is now a team of certified pentesters, researchers, and engineers, serving 1000+ businesses across industries and continents. Astra was born from a simple bet: good security testing should be judged by results and backed by real proof.

Since then, we've grown. A lot.

With offices in the USA and Bangalore, and a team of 100+ astranauts, we help you loop security into a living record you can put in front of a customer, an auditor, or the board and say, "See for yourself."

Astra not only uncovers vulnerabilities proactively but has helped us move from DevOps to DevSecOps

Vinish Vijayan
IT Manager, Muthooth Finance

Their website was user-friendly & their continuous vulnerability scans were a pivotal factor in our choice to partner with them.

Larry Crawley
CTO, Strategic Audit Solutions, Inc.

The combination of pentesting for SOC 2 & automated scanning that integrates into our CI pipelines is a game-changer.

Jack Collins
Head of Product Engineering, Naro

I like the autonomy of running and re-running tests after fixes. Astra ensures we never deploy vulnerabilities to production.

Arthur De Moulins
Web Architect, Vkard

We are impressed with Astra's dashboard and its amazing ‘automated and scheduled‘ scanning capabilities. Integrating these scans into our CI/CD pipeline was a breeze and saved us a lot of time.

Ankur Rawal
CTO, Zenduty

Overall, Astra made the penetration testing process much more manageable and helped us complete our audit requirements on time.

Grace Yu
Business Development Manager, ShipSaving

Working with Astra on our penetration test was a genuinely smooth experience. The findings were clear and well-documented, which made it easy for our engineers to understand the impact and prioritize fixes.

Vaithiyalingam Sowmiyan
Frontend Engineer, Pielabs

We recently engaged Astra to carry out penetration testing across several of our applications and were extremely impressed with their service.
