Challenge

Pentera was founded as Pcysys in 2015, to automate security validation and strengthen corporate cybersecurity resilience. Its platform simulates real-world attacks to identify exploitable vulnerabilities across internal and external networks. The company created the category of Automated Security Validation, and soon after (2021) rebranded as Pentera.

In 2025, to strengthen its category leadership and update the brand for the age of AI, the company embarked on a rebranding initiative, in the process also highlighting its differentiated point of view of the market, and adding an emotional layer to the brand.
Solution

Following a thorough process of understanding Pentera’s DNA (through internal interviews) and understanding existing perceptions of Pentera (via interviews with customers and investors), we conducted a series of sessions with the company’s leadership team, working collaboratively to crack the (re)newed brand essence. We realized that beyond the company’s pioneering technology, and its product portfolio roadmap (addressing customer needs), the company had an edge that cannot be copied: its approach to tackling cyber threats, and its attitude in going about to solve them.

Logo & Typography

The new logo is built from tall letters that convey strength and power, with self-confidence, as the letters stand on their own without an accompanying symbol. The dot completes the move and expresses the willingness to push boundaries, to operate in the cyber world in a creative, bold, and uncompromising way.

The brand’s typography continues the same powerful line, with tall and strong letters leaning on diagonal and dynamic structures, sharpening a sense of strength and forward movement. Combined with a bold color palette, we have created a visual language with a distinct and differentiated presence in the cyber world one that directly expresses the brand’s fierce strategy.

Brand Character

For the brand character, the goat was chosen having accompanied Pentera in campaigns over the years, inspired by the idea of the greatest of all times. In the reimagined depiction, the familiar “white” goat has become a black goat determined and bold, yet at the same time friendly and approachable. It embodies a character that stands by your side, works with you rather than against you, and reflects the essence of the product: using an offensive cyber approach to strengthen defense and act in the customer’s best interest.
