Will AI replace human pen testers?

Jul 31, 2025 By Marcus White In Outpost 24
It’s become pretty standard to expect the help of AI with automating tasks, with penetration testing being no exception. As AI-driven tools grow more sophisticated, some have posed the question: could these systems render the traditional human pen tester obsolete entirely? We’ll explore the strengths and limitations of AI when it comes to offensive security and predict the role human red team expertise still has to play in an increasingly automated world.

How Continuous DAST Empowers OWASP Top 10 Compliance

Jul 30, 2025 By Sumit Singh In Astra
Your app isn’t just HTML anymore. It is containers talking to microservices, SPA front ends calling GraphQL, and third‑party SDKs everywhere. That mix creates blind spots and unpredictable OWASP Top 10 gaps. Continuous DAST looks through every layer, including mobile backends, APIs, and container workloads, simulating attacker behaviour across your entire technology stack. Hence, no more guessing which component hides the next SSRF, injection, or misconfiguration.

Why 'Vulnerability Management' Was Always the Wrong Name for the Job

Jul 30, 2025 By Scott Kuffer In Nucleus
Let’s get this out of the way: the term vulnerability management has always been misleading. It evokes the idea that we’re wrangling a tidy list of software flaws, checking boxes, patching holes, and keeping things humming. But anyone who’s worked in the trenches or tried to explain this chaos to an executive board knows the truth. What we call “vulnerability management” isn’t a single discipline, or even a well-contained function.

Despite the expanding use of browser extensions, the majority of enterprises and individuals still rely on labels such as "Verified" and "Chrome Featured" provided by extension stores as a security indicator.

Fend Off AI Fatigue with the Snyk AI Trust Platform

Jul 29, 2025 By Brendan Hann In Snyk
Generative AI has transformed software development almost overnight. From coding assistants to AI-native applications, tools are evolving faster than most teams can keep up with. But the rapid evolution of AI comes with its own cost: mental fatigue. Even among AI developers, most don’t consider themselves experts in generative AI. Between shifting tools, growing security risks, and a flood of hype, it’s no surprise that developers and security teams feel overwhelmed.

Business Logic Vulnerabilities Explained: Real Examples, Impact & How to Prevent Them

Jul 29, 2025 By AppSentinels In AppSentinels
Imagine an online retailer running a promotion: “Spend $100 this month, get a $25 gift card.” It sounds simple encourage loyal shoppers to spend more. But due to a flaw in the app’s logic, a clever user discovers a loophole. They place enough orders to reach the $100 threshold and receive the gift card. Then, they cancel a small order to drop below the threshold only to make a new one that pushes their total back over $100.

Beyond Management: The Shift to Continuous Vulnerability Mitigation

Beyond Management: The Shift to Continuous Vulnerability Mitigation

Jul 29, 2025 By SecuritySenses In SecuritySenses
In the fast-paced world of cybersecurity, threats evolve continuously, and so should your response. Traditional vulnerability management approaches-while useful-are no longer sufficient to address the dynamic nature of modern cyber risks. Organizations must move beyond management and embrace continuous vulnerability mitigation to ensure real-time protection and long-term resilience.
