Performs automated penetration tests against web applications to uncover exploitable vulnerabilities.
Overview
Penetration Tester simulates real-world attacks against your applications and infrastructure. It thinks like an adversary — probing for weaknesses, chaining vulnerabilities, and demonstrating the actual impact of security flaws on your business.
This agent goes beyond automated vulnerability scanning. It performs intelligent reconnaissance, identifies attack surfaces, and crafts targeted exploits that demonstrate how a real attacker would compromise your systems. Every finding includes a proof of concept and impact assessment.
The agent tests web applications, APIs, authentication systems, and infrastructure configurations against the OWASP Top 10, CWE Top 25, and custom attack scenarios specific to your technology stack.

Process
Penetration Tester follows a systematic process to deliver consistent, high-quality results.
Maps your attack surface — exposed endpoints, authentication mechanisms, API contracts, and third-party integrations that could be leveraged.
Probes discovered surfaces for injection flaws, authentication bypasses, authorization failures, and configuration weaknesses.
Attempts controlled exploitation of discovered vulnerabilities to verify severity and demonstrate real-world impact.
Produces a detailed report with CVSS-scored findings, proof-of-concept exploits, and specific remediation steps with code examples.
Use Cases
Test your application before launch to identify and fix vulnerabilities before attackers find them. Ship with confidence.
Probe your API endpoints for injection, authentication bypass, rate limit circumvention, and data exposure vulnerabilities.
Test login flows, session management, password reset, and OAuth implementations for bypass vulnerabilities and logic flaws.
