Alt.security provides an AI-powered offensive security platform that autonomously performs penetration testing and vulnerability exploitation across web applications, APIs, and AI systems. The platform's agentic attacker learns each application from the outside in, targeting business logic flaws and attack chains that traditional security tools miss.

Problem
Traditional offensive security programs are constrained by human limits—scarce talent, limited time, and narrow scope—leaving most assets untested between infrequent point-in-time assessments. Meanwhile, AI is democratizing nation-state-level attack capabilities, with frontier models now able to discover zero-day vulnerabilities and write working exploits in minutes, making the economics of attack fundamentally cheaper than defense.
Solution
Alt.security deploys an autonomous agentic attacker that models each target application from the outside in, mapping how endpoints, services, and business logic flows interconnect. The agent forms hypotheses about potential vulnerabilities, designs unscripted exploratory attacks, and iterates on what it learns, chaining findings into full attack paths with proven business impact. Every finding is reproducible, prioritized, and actionable, with fix guidance feeding directly into development workflows. The platform continuously retests environments, validates fixes, and adapts to changes in the attack surface, providing ongoing coverage rather than point-in-time snapshots. Alt supports blackbox, greybox, and whitebox testing modes, and requires no sensors, integrations, or setup—just a target to begin.
Target Audience
Primary customers are enterprise security teams, CISOs, and offensive security professionals at large organizations who need scalable, continuous penetration testing and vulnerability management across complex application portfolios.
