Why Security Validation Is Becoming Agentic
If you run security at any reasonably complex organization, your validation stack probably looks something like this: a BAS tool in one corner. A pentest engagement, or maybe an automated pentesting product, in another. A vulnerability scanner feeding an attack surface management platform somewhere else. Each tool gives you a slice of the picture. None of them talks to each other in any meaningful way. Meanwhile, adversaries do not attack in silos. A real intrusion might chain together an exposed identity, a cloud misconfiguration, a missed detection opportunity, and an unpatched vulnerability in a single operation. Attackers understand that your environment is an interconnected system. Unfortunately, most validation programs are still treating it as a set of disparate, disconnected parts. This isn't a minor inefficiency. It's a structural blind spot. And it's lasted for years because the market has treated every validation discipline as a separate category, with its own ...
