R/Pulse Autonomous Adaptive Security Agent

Continuous Pentesting for applications that keep changing

R/Pulse AASA is our Continuous Pentesting agent. It expands your security team's capacity to investigate applications more often and keep an up-to-date view of risk as they change.

Between one pentest and the next, the application keeps changing

New features, integrations, permissions and business rules can open paths that didn't exist at the last assessment. If the next offensive investigation takes a while, the view of risk comes to reflect an earlier version of the application.

At the same time, specialists have to split their capacity between new assessments, risks already found and fixes that still need confirmation. For leadership, it gets harder to know which exposures are still relevant and where to focus the team.

Make offensive investigation a continuous capability

R/Pulse AASA (Autonomous Adaptive Security Agent) lets the team run offensive assessments on a recurring basis, with the scope and frequency set by the organization.

In each assessment, the agent deepens hypotheses and adapts the investigation to what it finds. That way, relevant changes can be investigated without waiting for the next scheduled pentest.

Your security team

Follows the investigation and directs it when needed

The investigation delivers

  • Prioritized risks
  • evidence
  • reassessment after remediation

Your team decides how much of the investigation to delegate to AASA

The agent's level of autonomy can vary with the application's criticality and the goal of the assessment. In both modes, scope and limits are set by your organization.

Assisted investigation

Your security team follows the run and can guide the agent, dig deeper into a hypothesis or redirect the investigation as it happens.

Autonomous investigation

With goals and limits defined, AASA runs the assessment adaptively without requiring constant supervision.

Follow the risk from finding to re-evaluation

Between discovering a risk and closing it, your team needs to keep the investigation's context to decide on treatment and confirm the result.

  1. Understand what needs attention

    The risks found come with evidence of the observed behavior to support the team's analysis and prioritization.

  2. Speed up the fix with AI

    AASA turns the risk's evidence and context into structured instructions. Your organization can use them in its own AI tools to speed up the fix.

  3. Verify the treatment

    After the fix, the scenario related to the risk goes through a new assessment to check whether the identified behavior still occurs.

The investigation respects the limits your organization sets

Your team defines which applications and assets can be assessed, along with the access, goals and restrictions of the run. AASA operates in the customer's environment within that scope, with no direct access by Sofist.

Frequently asked questions about R/Pulse AASA

What is Continuous Pentesting?

It's the ability to run offensive assessments on a recurring basis, keeping up with how applications change. Each assessment investigates the scope defined by the organization and produces information to analyze and treat the risks found.

Does Continuous Pentesting mean running attacks 24 hours a day?

No. The organization defines when each assessment happens, which application is investigated and the limits of the run. “Continuous” refers to the ability to assess on a recurring basis, as the business needs.

Does AASA replace security professionals?

No. The agent expands investigation capacity. The organization's security specialists define the scope, can direct the run and remain responsible for analyzing the risks and deciding what to do about them.

Does AASA work like an automated scanner?

AASA runs an adaptive investigation: it explores the application, observes the results and adjusts its next steps to what it finds. Your team can guide the investigation in real time or let the agent proceed within the defined limits.

Does the retest happen automatically when a fix is made?

No. After treatment, the scenario related to the risk goes through a new assessment to check whether the identified behavior still occurs. The retest is part of the process, but it isn't triggered automatically by the fix.
