Reflectiz Unveils AI Platform for Continuous Website Security
Reflectiz's new AI-driven platform offers year-round penetration testing to match the pace of ever-changing websites.
Key points
- Reflectiz launched a multi-agent penetration testing platform on 15 July 2025.
- It claims up to ten times the coverage of conventional tools by running tests continuously.
- The platform uses four AI agents to map, identify, attack, and verify vulnerabilities.
Reflectiz has introduced a groundbreaking AI platform designed to keep up with the fast-paced changes in website security needs, as first reported by ThreatVectr. Traditional penetration tests, known as pentests, typically happen once or twice a year, but websites change much more frequently. Reflectiz's new system addresses this gap by continuously testing as websites evolve.
What is a penetration test, and why isn't once a year enough?
A penetration test is when security experts deliberately try to break into their own website to find weaknesses before hackers do. Most companies conduct these tests annually, but websites regularly change, adding new features or updating existing ones. This means that by the time the test results are in, they might be outdated. Criminals don't wait for annual tests to exploit vulnerabilities.
How does Reflectiz's platform work?
Reflectiz's platform uses a decade of data from scanning thousands of websites to start with a detailed map of each site. Four AI agents then take on different roles: one acts like a real visitor to map the site, another identifies potential attack methods, a third executes these attacks, and the last verifies each finding. This ensures that only confirmed vulnerabilities reach developers, avoiding long investigations.
| Agent | Role |
|---|---|
| Crawler | Maps pages, logins, and scripts as a real user would |
| Fingerprinter | Identifies attack techniques applicable to site elements |
| Attacker | Executes attacks and organizes findings |
| Validator | Confirms findings before they are reported |
Should ordinary website users be worried?
This is a product launch, not a security breach. However, it highlights the vulnerabilities present on many websites. Third-party scripts, often used for chat or analytics, are frequent targets for criminals to gain access to sensitive information. Website users should stay vigilant by monitoring their bank statements and being cautious with saved payment details.
If your company's engineering team is updating the website faster than your security team can test it, you might already have the security gap that Reflectiz aims to close.
