Overview

What is Bishop Fox?

Bishop Fox is an offensive security consultancy headquartered in Tempe, Arizona, providing application, network, cloud, mobile, and product penetration testing alongside red team and ransomware-readiness exercises. Its Cosmos platform adds continuous attack surface discovery and testing (continuous threat exposure management, or CTEM) rather than a one-time annual assessment. Engagements are custom-scoped and quoted directly with the sales team.

Why teams use it

Key capabilities

  • Penetration testing: Application, network, cloud, mobile, and product security assessments.
  • Red teaming: Social-engineering and ransomware-readiness exercises simulating real adversaries.
  • Cosmos platform: Continuous attack surface discovery and testing (CTEM) between point-in-time engagements.
Core areas

Core areas are offensive testing (pen testing and red teaming) and continuous attack surface management, aimed at organizations that want ongoing rather than annual-only security validation.

Positioning

Shortlist Bishop Fox for scoped, hands-on offensive testing (pen tests, red teams) or for continuous exposure management via Cosmos, rather than as a self-serve scanning tool - pricing is quote-based per engagement.

Why it matters

Because pricing and scope are negotiated per engagement, compare proposed scope, tester seniority, and retest terms across firms rather than a published price list.
