OX Security has announced the launch of OX Agentic Pentester, a continuous penetration testing capability powered by agentic AI that validates real-world exploitability and connects each verified exposure directly to the source code responsible. Unlike traditional penetration testing or automated DAST tools, Agentic Pentester actively pursues attack paths to confirm vulnerabilities, and then traces the exploits back to the precise repository, file, and commit where the issues originated.

Why it matters

Security teams today face a persistent gap between the speed of AI-driven software development and the slower pace of security validation. OX Agentic Pentester aims to close this gap by providing continuous, AI-powered penetration testing that can keep up with modern development cycles and directly link exploitable vulnerabilities to the source code, enabling faster and more effective remediation.

The details

OX Agentic Pentester uses agentic AI to actively pursue attack paths like a human penetration tester, but at scale and without time constraints. It confirms whether vulnerabilities can actually be exploited in a real environment, and then traces each validated exposure back to the precise repository, file, and commit where it originated. This code-first approach provides security and engineering teams with immediate clarity on which risks matter and exactly where they must be fixed.

  • OX Agentic Pentester was announced on March 12, 2026.

What they’re saying

“AI is writing code faster than security teams can review it — and attackers are exploiting that gap at machine speed. The only answer is to hit back just as fast. OX doesn't just find what's exploitable. We tell you exactly where in your code to fix it — and close the loop before the adversary ever gets there.”

— Neatsun Ziv, Co-founder and CEO of OX Security (OX Security)

“Every other tool told us what might be broken. OX Agentic Pentester maps our attack surface, validates what's actually exploitable with a complete visibility on our application stack, and tells us exactly where to fix it. That's a completely different conversation.”

— Shai Sivan, Chief of Trust for Glide Identity (OX Security)

What’s next

OX Agentic Pentester is available immediately as part of the OX Security Platform, and the company will demonstrate the tool at the RSA Conference 2026 in San Francisco.

The takeaway

OX Agentic Pentester represents a new approach to penetration testing that leverages AI to keep pace with modern, AI-driven software development. By directly linking exploitable vulnerabilities to the source code, the tool aims to enable faster and more effective remediation, closing the gap between security analysis and remediation.
