BreachLock’s Breach360 Named Best Autonomous Penetration Testing Solution of 2026 by Cyber Defense Magazine

NEW YORK, October 21, 2026 — BreachLock, a global leader in offensive security, today announced that Breach360, its agentic AI-powered autonomous penetration testing solution, has been named the Best Autonomous Penetration Testing Solution in the 2026 Top InfoSec Innovator Awards by Cyber Defense Magazine (CDM).

The award was earned only months after the launch of Breach360 in August 2026. Breach360 brings autonomous penetration testing to the BreachLock Unified Platform alongside Attack Surface Management (ASM) and Penetration Testing as a Service (PTaaS). To date, BreachLock is the only offensive security provider to unify continuous ASM, certified expert-led penetration testing, and autonomous penetration testing in a single workflow.

The autonomous penetration testing category of security testing covers solutions that use AI agents to plan and execute penetration tests with the ability to chain findings into attack paths and prove which vulnerabilities are exploitable. Breach360 was named Best Solution in the category for delivering production-safe autonomous penetration testing that continuously proves what’s exploitable, narrowing the coverage gap between annual or quarterly pentests and attack surfaces that change daily.

Key Capabilities of Breach360 Autonomous Penetration Testing

• Senior pentester-level attack execution: Breach360 behaves the way real attackers do, from reconnaissance to exploitation and lateral movement, by chaining vulnerabilities into exploitable attack paths. Because it’s anchored in intelligence from over 40,000 expert-led penetration tests, Breach360 executes at a senior pentester level.
• Internal and external coverage across web and network: Breach360 tests both internal and external web and network environments, giving security teams a unified view of exploitable risk across the web, network, and API attack surface layers.
• Production-safe, human-in-the-loop control: Security teams have full control of the scope of every engagement. Breach360 only tests assets they have explicitly authorized, and once it confirms a vulnerability is exploitable, it asks for permission before exploiting it, and again before any lateral movement. A kill switch and pause control also allow teams to stop or hold a test at any point.
• Testing as often as needed: Clients can launch autonomous penetration tests one time, on a recurring schedule, or continuously, so testing keeps pace with their attack surface without being dependent on human bandwidth.
• Validated, prioritized findings: Breach360 proves what’s exploitable and delivers validated, prioritized findings without the manual overhead or scalability limits of traditional penetration testing.
• Expert accountability on demand: Teams can add a certified BreachLock pentester as the final checkpoint on any engagement, putting expert accountability behind autonomous results.
• Reports for every audience: Technical, executive, and remediation-focused reports with attack path visualizations come straight from the BreachLock Unified Platform, so teams move from findings to fixes faster.

“Breach360 being named Best Solution for Autonomous Penetration Testing validates the insights a handful of CISOs shared with us as we built it,” said Seemant Sehgal, Founder and CEO of BreachLock. “A common theme was that they wanted the speed and scale of autonomous pentesting, but many were hesitant to trust it in production without full transparency and control of what it tests and how far it goes. Breach360 delivers both,” he added. “We thank Cyber Defense Magazine and its judges for this recognition, and we will keep raising the bar for what autonomous penetration testing can do for our customers.”

“Breach360 by BreachLock embodies three major features we judges look for with the potential to become winners: understanding tomorrow’s threats, today, providing a cost-effective solution and innovating in unexpected ways that can help mitigate cyber risk and get one step ahead of the next breach,” said Gary S. Miliefsky, Publisher of Cyber Defense Magazine.
