Summary	Autonomous penetration testing built into the Dublin-based Edgescan platform, launched October 7, 2026. A team of narrow AI agents plans, adapts, chains vulnerabilities and validates real impact on web applications, using Edgescan's existing asset context and findings, while a deterministic 'Harness' enforces scope, permissions, approvals and allowed actions. Findings land alongside Edgescan's DAST, PTaaS and ASM results.	Security-validation platform that continuously runs automated, production-safe pentests across internal networks, the external attack surface, cloud and identity, web apps and APIs. AI guides attack execution in real time (adapting techniques, generating payloads, chaining exploits) while Pentera's deterministic engine keeps every action controlled and auditable; users can approve or stop execution within guardrails, and Pentera Resolve turns validated findings into automated remediation workflows.

• Amnify security agents (agent-driven code audit, AI pentesting, PR review and autofix pull requests) — German AppSec product from Düsseldorf: a team of agents audits repositories (SAST, secrets, SCA, IaC, CI/CD) and cloud accounts, triages signals so only confirmed findings surface, pentests running apps inside a verified scope with a separate agent reproducing every finding, reviews pull requests with a merge-blocking status check, and opens fix pull requests that run your tests but never merge themselves.
• noze CyberAgent (AI agent for continuous attack-surface monitoring, automated validation pentesting and NIS2 evidence) — Italian agent for mid-sized companies and NIS2 entities without an in-house SOC: after verifying domain control it continuously discovers assets and assesses network, web apps and APIs, correlates findings with EPSS and CISA KEV, confirms exploitability with automated validation pentests, ranks risks by business impact and prepares NIS2, DORA and ISO 27001 reports; the team decides what to fix. · noze CyberAgent (AI agent for continuous attack-surface monitoring, automated validation pentesting and NIS2 evidence) pair comparison
