Our autonomous pentesting agent just outperformed the two most popular open source offensive security agents on a benchmark of 60 modern, defense-enabled web apps.
Battle-tested in production against our customers' environments from startups to financial institutions, Apex consistently finds and exploits critical vulnerabilities other agents and humans miss.
Today we're releasing it open source alongside our internal benchmarks.
