Meet Traverse.
From exposure to exploitation evidence.
Purpose-built offensive security technology. Powered by human expertise.
Traverse is MethodSec's proprietary offensive security platform, unifying external attack surface discovery, operator-led agentic web and API penetration testing, and hands-on vulnerability validation.
Built by security practitioners for real-world assessments, Traverse connects reconnaissance, investigation, and exploitation validation in a single environment. This enables our researchers to move beyond identifying potential weaknesses to demonstrating their actual security impact.
Built for the way we test.
External Attack Surface Discovery
Maintain visibility into an organization's internet-facing infrastructure. Traverse supports asset discovery, inventory management, and tracking changes across the external attack surface, helping our team identify new exposures and prioritize areas for investigation.
Operator-Led Agentic Testing
Explore web applications and APIs using agentic testing capabilities guided by experienced security researchers. Traverse combines automated investigation with human direction, allowing operators to pursue promising attack paths, adapt testing strategies, and examine complex application behavior.
Hands-On Security Investigation
We go beyond automated testing. Traverse works alongside the tools our security researchers know and trust, supporting the hands-on investigation and validation that effective penetration testing demands. This enables deeper investigation and hands-on validation of potential vulnerabilities.
Evidence-Driven Findings
Identifying a potential vulnerability is not the same as demonstrating its impact. Traverse supports the investigation and validation of security weaknesses, helping our researchers develop reproducible findings backed by technical evidence.
Automation assists. Expertise leads.
Effective penetration testing requires more than automated tools. It requires curiosity, technical judgment, and the ability to recognize unexpected behavior.
Traverse is designed around that principle.
Agentic capabilities assist with exploration and investigation, while MethodSec's security researchers direct the testing process, evaluate results, and determine which findings warrant deeper investigation.
The platform accelerates the work. Our researchers drive the assessment.
