AI-assisted pentesting

We pentest with our own AI platform — the reasoning power of an LLM (frontier or self-hosted model) combined with a methodology we built — iteration loops, strict safety instructions and pentester–AI interactivity throughout the entire testing workflow.

AI-assisted pentesting

AI doesn’t replace the pentester — it removes the dead time. We built our own AI-assisted pentesting platform for exactly this: we combine the reasoning power and knowledge base of a language model with a methodology we created, where judgement and control remain with the human tester. The result is a deeper test on the same time budget, without sacrificing rigour or safety.

Our platform

  • Frontier or self-hosted LLM — for sensitive environments, the model runs locally, at our site or yours, so no project information leaves the network. The same principle as our other services: data stays in the EU, and for classified environments, fully disconnected.
  • In-house methodology with iteration loops — the AI proposes hypotheses and steps, the tester validates and executes them in a controlled manner, and the results feed back into the loop. Testing deepens step by step, not in a single automated pass.
  • Strict safety instructions — guardrails that prevent any destructive or out-of-scope action. The AI proposes; nothing with impact happens without the tester’s confirmation.
  • Pentester–AI interactivity throughoutinteractive-pentester mode: the tester leads, the AI accelerates. It’s not a scanner that spits out a report, but a working partner the pentester dialogues with at every step.

Across the entire pentest workflow

The assistant works alongside the tester in every phase, not just at the beginning:

  • Reconnaissance and analysis — rapid information correlation, synthesis, hypothesis generation
  • Exploitation — the AI proposes vectors and payload variants, the tester confirms and executes under control
  • Documentation — evidence and reproduction steps structured as the test progresses

Why it matters

It’s our “manual-first” principle, at a different speed: the tools cut the dead time, the judgement stays with the tester. You gain coverage and depth — more hypotheses explored, more paths followed to the end — without losing the human control that makes the difference between a good test and an expensive scanner.

What you get

  • The same deliverables as any manual test: findings with evidence, reproduction steps, severity in business context and prioritised remediation
  • A deeper test on the same time window, because the repetitive work is accelerated and the tester invests time where it matters
