ATLANTA, Aug. 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Siemba, a leading provider of Penetration Testing as a Service (PTaaS) and Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM), announced today that it has been recognized as a Sample Vendor in the 2025 Gartner® Hype Cycle™ for Application Security, Security Operations, and Everything as a Service (XaaS) reports. This marks the second consecutive year Siemba has been included in all three Hype Cycle reports. Siemba believes this reinforces its growing role in shaping the future of offensive security.
The Gartner Hype Cycle reports provide a perspective on the maturity and adoption of emerging technologies. For cybersecurity decision-makers, these reports serve as strategic guides to evaluate which innovations can address real-world risks and drive long-term security improvements.

“We are proud to be recognized for the second consecutive year across three Gartner Hype Cycle reports. We believe this is a strong validation of our thesis that continuous validation and visibility are critical to modern cybersecurity,” said Kannan Udayarajan, Founder and CEO of Siemba. “We’re proud that our Full Funnel Offensive Security platform is helping organizations find, prioritize, and remediate risks faster—at the pace of their business.”
The 2025 Gartner Hype Cycle for Application Security notes:
