How organizations can use agent AI to conduct proactive, automated penetration testing of applications and APIs
To stay competitive, large organizations are accelerating digital delivery, launching new applications, expanding their API ecosystems, and integrating AI-driven services at unprecedented speed. But as the rate of innovation increases, organizations need technology that allows them to move quickly without exposing themselves to unnecessary risks.
For security leaders, this creates a structural challenge. Applications and APIs continually evolve, while threat actors operate with automation and persistence. As a result, intermittent penetration testing is no longer fit for purpose. Regular penetration testing regimes can’t keep up with rapid changes when it takes weeks just to scope a new test.
Rather, it requires a shift in approach from reactive and offensive security to proactive and continuous security. Penetration testing must be performed continuously to ensure that new vulnerabilities are not discovered. Applications hidden in complex workflows or forgotten are identified before they can be exploited.
This type of approach can be achieved using agent-based AI hacking solutions that constantly probe an organization’s defenses. Supplementing human skills with automated hacking monitoring 24/7 allows organizations to respond to ever-changing risks.
Join us to network with colleagues and gain practical insights for delivering effective application and API security. This is a special event and seating is very limited, so register now!
Topics we explore
The meeting will focus on questions such as:
- Why is API security management difficult? Are test schedules aligned with deployment cycles? What impact does this have on cyber security?
- How can organizations protect themselves from evolving cyber risks? What are the benefits of continuous penetration testing? And how can it be achieved?
- How can you use agent AI as part of your continuous penetration testing regime to minimize risk to your APIs?
- What role do humans play alongside AI-powered penetration testing?
