Potech unveiled an AI-powered pentesting platform intended to secure modern applications against risks introduced by accelerated automated software development.
In response to the acceleration of automated software development, Potech unveils Red Agent, an innovative pentesting platform powered by AI. Designed to address the obsolescence of traditional tools (SAST), Red Agent simulates the ingenuity of a hacker and the wisdom of a seasoned consultant to secure modern applications.
The failure of SAST against business logic flaws
The Potech 2025 benchmark, "The Invisible Break-In," reveals a paradigm shift: while AI-generated code better avoids classic vulnerabilities (SQLi, XSS), it contains 500% more business logic flaws than traditional code. These behavioral errors, invisible to static analysis, can only be detected through direct interaction in real-world conditions.
Red Agent: Human wisdom at industrial scale
Red Agent bridges this gap by moving from static scanning to AI-powered Greybox Pentesting. The platform combines speed and strategic expertise:
Agentic Speed: The depth of a 7-day manual pentest completed in just 7 hours.
Total Coverage: Black, White, and Greybox tests for a blind spot-free analysis.
Consultant Wisdom: Identification of complex authentication and authorization failures.
Continuous Agility: Unlimited retests for 365 days and real-time adaptation to code changes.
"The real vulnerabilities now lie in logic and permissions. Red Agent is designed to capture the errors that AI coding assistants overlook," explains Elie Zeidan, CPO at Potech.
