What it does
Cytix (Cytix Ltd, Manchester, UK) treats each software change, rather than a yearly test window, as the unit of security work. Per its own solution pages: the platform discovers changes, gathers context (affected asset, environment, company policy and prior findings) and assesses each change against the customer's approval policy and risk thresholds; changes that clearly fall within policy are approved automatically without manual sign-off, and changes that do not are escalated to a human reviewer, with the decision and its rationale attached to the change either way. For changes that warrant attack-grade proof, Cytix deploys pentest agents scoped to that specific change (using the change summary and task description as context); agents run in parallel, each isolated in its own sandbox, and work like a human tester by issuing requests, managing sessions, comparing responses and using browser-based tools, choosing tools for the task rather than running a fixed script. Verified vulnerabilities are raised in the platform with change-specific remediation advice, and every engagement is logged in full (tool calls, execution steps, cost and time). Customers choose per change between agentic validation and human testing; a Hybrid plan routes validation to CREST-accredited partner testers. The Self-Service plan lists change discovery, change risk assessment, auto change approval, prioritised test plans, agentic testing and audit-ready reporting. Pricing is not published (plans are 'Get Started' / demo).

AISLE (autonomous vulnerability discovery, triage and verified-fix agents) — Prague-headquartered AI code-security platform in which thousands of agents analyse a codebase in parallel for exploitable vulnerabilities, fix agents write patches, and agentic verification builds the repo and runs tests before opening a pull request for human merge. October 2026 added agent-driven proof of exploitability against running web apps and APIs. Cohere signed a letter of intent to acquire AISLE on Oct 15, 2026. - Amazon Q Developer security scanning — Amazon Q Developer code reviews that scan for SAST issues, secrets, IaC misconfigurations, quality issues, deployment risks and SCA, with some in-IDE suggested fixes.
