AvalonX
AvalonX provides continuous, on-demand penetration testing powered by Aether, a proprietary 400 billion-parameter security AI, and orchestrated through the Artemis platform. The platform deploys autonomous agents across attack stages—from reconnaissance to lateral movement—with human testers verifying findings and delivering actionable results the same day. Testing requires no software installation for external scopes, and findings are mapped to compliance frameworks like SOC 2 and ISO 27001.

Problem
Traditional penetration testing is episodic, expensive, and slow, leaving businesses exposed to evolving threats between annual assessments. Scheduling constraints and high costs put enterprise-grade offensive security out of reach for many organizations, while raw vulnerability output often requires specialized expertise to interpret and prioritize.
Solution
AvalonX makes enterprise-grade penetration testing continuous, accessible, and affordable through Aether, a proprietary 400 billion-parameter security AI trained on nine years of real-world offensive-security data. The Artemis platform orchestrates a fleet of autonomous agents that specialize in different attack stages—reconnaissance, enumeration, exploitation, lateral movement, and reporting—working together and adapting as attacks unfold. Agents plan, execute against real security tools, evaluate outcomes, and decide next steps, escalating to human penetration testers when expert judgment is needed. Testing can be run on-demand with no scheduling, and findings are human-verified and delivered the same day with clear, actionable reporting.
Target Audience
Primary customers are businesses of all sizes that need continuous, affordable offensive security testing without building an in-house security team, including those needing compliance evidence for SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI DSS, or HIPAA.
Features
- Aether: 400 billion-parameter security AI trained on nine years of proprietary offensive-security data and 60 billion dark-web records, capable of reasoning through complex attack chains and uncovering business-logic flaws
- Artemis platform: orchestrates autonomous agents across attack stages, with agents sharing context and adapting their next moves based on prior results
- Attack-path reasoning: connects individual vulnerabilities to demonstrate how an attacker could actually compromise the business
- Human verification: findings are confirmed by human penetration testers, providing validated results rather than raw output
- Same-day results: complete testing in hours with actionable findings delivered the same day
- Compliance mapping: findings mapped to SOC 2 Type II, ISO/IEC 27001:2022, PCI DSS v4.0, and HIPAA/HITECH requirements
- AAA Tested mark: verifiable badge showing when the company was last tested and what was in scope
- No software installation required for external testing; scope is defined by the customer with full authorization controls
