Pentera
Autonomous security validation with AI-native attack agents for web apps and infra.
About
Pentera is an autonomous security validation platform that executes real attack kill-chains safely in production to prove which exposures attackers can actually exploit. Unlike point-in-time manual penetration tests, it runs continuously across network, cloud, identity, and application surfaces, then revalidates fixes to confirm exposure reduction.
The platform recently added AI-native web application testing: AI attack agents that do their own reconnaissance, reason through application logic, and adapt payloads in real time, testing business logic and access-control flaws beyond known signatures. Its Validation-on-Demand framework also lets threat intelligence or enterprise AI agents trigger real attack validation on demand.
What it can do
- Autonomous penetration testing across network, cloud, and apps
- AI-native attack agents for web application testing
- Ransomware emulation and CISA KEV targeted tests
- Validation-on-Demand API for partner and AI agent integrations
Setup
Deploy the Pentera platform in your environment and define the scope and guardrails for testing.
