Bishop Fox, the authority in offensive security announced significant, continuing company momentum with its expansion into the UK market.
Having recently been awarded CREST accreditation in the UK and USA for Penetration Testing services, the company will look to help customers proactively enhance their security posture, with an initial focus on organisations in Northern Europe.
UK expansion
Bishop Fox’s expansion into the UK comes on the heels of recognition for the company’s leadership in Attack Surface Management and continuous penetration testing by analyst firm GigaOm, and news that the organisation has already achieved nine award wins in the opening months of 2023.
This includes two additional Global InfoSec Awards from Cyber Defence Magazine, announced at the RSA Conference, recognising the company and its penetration testing services. It carries over the strong momentum of 2022, which saw 40% year-over-year company growth, all capped by a $129 million Series B round.
Attack surface management approach
Its Cosmos platform combines automation and human expertise to validate findings and determine business impact"
“Organisations face increasing pressure to secure rapidly expanding attack surfaces against faster and more sophisticated threat actors,” said Michelle Abraham, IDC Research Director, Security, and Trust. “However, security teams are often overwhelmed by a flood of alerts and regulatory requirements."
"Bishop Fox's attack surface management approach provides a proactive, continuous defence to maintain a good security posture. Its Cosmos platform combines automation and human expertise to validate findings and determine business impact, thereby reducing the burden on internal security teams.”
RSA showcase and EMEA debut
The company’s strength and expertise are on full display in San Francisco at the annual RSA Conference. In addition to hosting multiple events, Bishop Fox experts will build on the success of its day-long virtual DEF CON Livestream, with The Art & Science of Cyber Leadership Livestream.
The virtual event features high profile CISOs, industry authorities, cyber-focused investors, and security founders. It will activate conversations on topics that are top of mind for current security pioneers and explore cybersecurity leadership through multiple, diverse lenses.

Bishop Fox is perfectly positioned to provide both the people and the technology to ensure compliance and drive greater protection against threat actors, with its Cosmos platform and highly experienced red teams and penetration testers.
The Bishop Fox team specialises in identifying and closing vulnerabilities in products, applications, networks, and cloud environments, before the bad guys find them, and ensuring comprehensive protection from everything from human error to ransomware.
