Ep. 7 - You've Just Run a Penetration Test, What's Next Beyond Pen Testing

In this episode, you'll learn: What happens after a traditional penetration test? In this episode, host Tova Dvorin is joined by Adrian Culley, Senior Sales Engineer and EU lead at SafeBreach, to explore the critical evolution from legacy pentesting to continuous, automated red teaming (CART) and breach and attack simulation (BAS).

We dive deep into the limitations of point-in-time manual penetration testing and why modern security teams and CISOs need to shift toward proactive risk management and continuous threat exposure management (CTEM). Adrian explains how tools like SafeBreach’s Propagate go beyond simulating known threats to dynamically generate new attack paths—including zero-day exploits—using AI-driven logic, validating your attack surface in real-time.

This episode covers:

• The future of penetration testing in cybersecurity
• How BAS and CART deliver true cyber resilience
• Why automated red teaming is critical for critical live production systems
• How attack path validation and blast radius analysis are redefining security strategies

Whether you’re a CISO, security leader, or red teamer, this episode will help you understand why continuous security validation is no longer optional—and why legacy penetration testing is no longer enough.
