Pentera, a global leader in Automated Security Validation, has unveiled advanced AI-driven features designed to enhance Web Attack Surface testing and deliver AI-powered Insight Reporting for external-facing assets. These new capabilities aim to provide security teams with deeper context and adaptive attack simulations, enabling them to counter the speed and sophistication of modern AI-assisted cyber threats.
Building on the company’s earlier innovation AI Insights Reporting launched in April 2025 Pentera continues to strengthen its AI portfolio, reinforcing its commitment to proactive security validation.

“AI is leveling the playing field, turning even keyboard kiddies into credible threat actors. Leveraging AI, attackers can move faster and with more precision than ever before,” said Ran Tamir, Chief Product Officer at Pentera. “With the addition of AI to our adversarial testing arsenal we’re giving defenders that same advantage, adapting in real time to new threat patterns and tuning each test with the context needed to uncover what traditional scans miss. We have a strong vision for how AI will permeate throughout the security validation practice, and these additions are only the beginning.”
Key AI-Powered Use Cases
Pentera’s newly introduced AI-driven enhancements deliver practical and powerful capabilities for security teams:
-
Payload Generation Based on Threat Intelligence
The platform leverages AI to rapidly create payloads aligned with emerging threat trends, ensuring organizations can emulate the latest attack techniques without delay. -
PII-Aware Attack Chaining
During testing, Pentera identifies and extracts exposed Personally Identifiable Information (PII). When relevant, this data is seamlessly integrated into identity-based attack simulations for a more realistic adversarial approach. -
Language and Culture-Agnostic Attack Execution
The solution understands linguistic variations, regional naming conventions, and terminology differences. This ensures attack simulations remain accurate and effective across diverse environments. -
System-Aware Attack Logic
Pentera recognizes the system type it interacts with and intelligently applies the most relevant default credentials, delivering context-driven attacks optimized for authentication structures.
AI Security Insights Reporting for External Assets
Alongside these new attack capabilities, Pentera is introducing AI-powered security posture reporting for publicly exposed assets. The AI-driven reports analyze historical test data over a specified timeframe, revealing posture trends, identifying regressions, and prioritizing remediation actions. These insights, presented in exportable reports, are tailored for both technical teams and business leaders providing a clear, data-driven view of organizational exposure and progress over time.
