What Hex Security does
Hex Security delivers agentic offensive security at scale. It builds AI agents that run continuous penetration tests against applications and infrastructure, finding vulnerabilities, chaining exploits together, and delivering actionable findings with reproduction steps, at a fraction of the cost of traditional manual pentesting.
Key capabilities
Rather than the once-a-year cadence of conventional pentests, Hex Security's agents work continuously to find and verify critical vulnerabilities before attackers can exploit them. The company reports its agents have identified critical issues such as SQL injection and demonstrated proof-of-concept exploits across many startups, delivering verified findings with steps to reproduce.
Who it's for
Hex Security is aimed at companies that want continuous, automated security testing of their apps and infrastructure but find traditional pentesting too manual, slow, and expensive. It is part of Y Combinator.
