According to a recent LinkedIn post from depthfirst, the company is highlighting a new Agentic Pentesting capability on its platform that uses autonomous agents to probe running applications much like human security researchers. The post describes support for white-, gray-, and black-box testing, with an emphasis on linking discovered vulnerabilities back to specific code to shorten the remediation cycle.
The company’s LinkedIn post suggests that security teams can use these agents to uncover complex vulnerabilities, validate whether existing code-scan findings are exploitable at runtime, and run ad hoc tests or embed them into CI/CD workflows for new releases. The post also notes workflow integration options such as Jira and Linear, as well as autonomous remediation features and attack replay to confirm fixes, indicating an attempt to make the product fit into mainstream development and security practices.
For investors, the post points to depthfirst advancing into agent-driven, continuous application security testing, a segment aligned with growing demand for automated, runtime-focused protection as software delivery accelerates. If adopted at scale, these capabilities could enhance the company’s value proposition versus traditional penetration testing and static analysis tools, potentially improving customer retention and expanding its market opportunity in DevSecOps and enterprise security budgets.
