AI Pentesting for Startups: How to Execute Autonomous
Offensive Security
Traditional pentesting was built for enterprises - slow, expensive, and manual. Meanwhile, attackers operate at machine speed acting in minutes.
XBOW Lightspeed was built for that gap. Autonomous expert-level pentest designed for hypergrowth teams.
In this session, we’ll cover what to expect from your first Lightspeed pentest. You’ll see how to get started and how Lightspeed delivers validated findings with clear proof-of-concept reproduction steps. We’ll also cover retesting so you can confirm fixes and generate evidence from compliance. By the end you’ll be ready to submit a Lightspeed request and receive something meaningful. Results in hours to days - not weeks or months.
In this webinar, we’ll share a practical, startup-friendly approach to autonomous pentesting with XBOW Lightspeed including:
What you’ll learn:
When to run your next test (compliance deadlines, post-breach news, release milestones)
What you need to get started, such as a public URL or whitelisted IPs, authentication options, and optional documentation or source artifacts
