Xbow
Company Overview
XBOW is redefining offensive security by building the world’s first autonomous pentesting platform, powered by AI. Traditional human-led pentesting struggles to keep pace with modern software development and an increasingly sophisticated threat landscape.
XBOW enables security teams to continuously test and harden systems using AI-driven offensive security, helping organizations reduce risk before attackers strike.
