Continuous security testing. A human in command.
ADA's agents discover, test and prioritise your attack surface around the clock. Anything with real-world impact waits for your approval, and every decision lands in an audit trail.
Built by red teamers who test European central banks and critical infrastructure under TIBER-EU. Runs on commercial AI or fully on-prem and air-gapped.
Approval needed: validate exploitability of the exposed VPN gateway.
Predicted impact: low, read-only check. In authorised scope. Requested by validation agent.A snapshot can't protect a moving target.
Penetration tests and red-team engagements happen a few times a year. Your attack surface changes every day. New subdomains, expired certificates, drifting configs and fresh CVEs open paths long before the next scheduled test.
241 days
The average time to identify and contain a breach, per IBM's Cost of a Data Breach 2025. Novel attacks live in that window.
Liability moved
Under DORA and NIS2, regulators expect continuous assurance, not an annual PDF, and accountability sits with the defender.
Attackers automated first
Autonomous agents are already used offensively. Defence that runs a few times a year can't keep pace.
AI pentesting finds a hole. ADA runs the whole program.
AI pentest tools point an autonomous agent at a target and report the bugs it can exploit. That's one task. ADA operates the continuous assurance program a regulated organisation is accountable for, from discovery to governed remediation and evidence.
| Aspect | Typical AI pentest tool | ADA |
|---|---|---|
| Job | Finds and proves exploitable bugs | Discovers, proves, prioritises and remediates |
| Cadence | Point-in-time or on-demand runs | Continuous, between the mandated deep tests |
| Scope | One target or application at a time | The whole reconciled attack surface, ranked by reachable business impact |
| Control | The agent acts on its own | Human sign-off on every impactful action |
| Output | A list of findings | An audit-ready assurance record |
| Deployment | Cloud SaaS, data leaves your perimeter | Commercial AI or fully on-prem and air-gapped |
An AI pentester is a tool ADA can use. ADA is the platform that turns continuous testing into assurance your board can sign.
An asset graph at the core, agents around it.
Scanners are commodity. ADA's value is a continuously reconciled view of everything you expose, and a control plane that guarantees it only touches what it's authorised to touch.
Discover
Passive and active discovery across DNS, certificates, cloud accounts and exposed services.
Correlate
One asset graph, deduplicated, owned and kept current as your estate changes.
Validate
Agents safely prove which exposures are genuinely exploitable, within authorised scope.
Prioritise
Risk ranked by reachability, exploit likelihood and business impact, not raw CVSS.
Remediate
Fixes proposed with evidence and applied only after a human approves.
Works with what you own. ADA orchestrates the security tools you already run and feeds findings into your existing ticketing and SIEM workflows.
The AI does the heavy lifting. People make the calls.
Letting AI near production only works if you stay in control and can prove it. That's the design, not a setting.
Approval before impact
Every action with real-world impact pauses until an authorised person approves, edits or rejects it.
Strict scope guard
Agents act only on assets and techniques inside the scope you authorise. Nothing else is reachable.
A complete audit trail
What changed, who approved it, and what remains open, recorded for your auditors and regulators.
Deploy where your data must stay
Choose the AI that fits your risk posture. Your telemetry never has to leave your perimeter.
- Commercial frontier models for fastest time to value
- Fully on-prem models on your own hardware
- Air-gapped deployments for sovereign and critical environments
Regulation made continuous testing a board-level duty.
The mandated deep tests are years apart. ADA provides the assurance in between.
DORA
Applies since 17 January 2025Designated financial entities must run threat-led penetration testing at least every three years. The TLPT technical standard has applied directly since 8 July 2025.
NIS2
EU-wideWidens the set of essential and important entities that must test their security regularly and demonstrate it.
The gap
Where ADA worksA three-year TLPT cycle and annual tests leave hundreds of untested days. ADA keeps assurance continuous across all of them.
Built by people who break in for a living.
CybrOps has spent two decades testing the hardest targets in Europe, then helping institutions withstand it. ADA turns that practice into a product.
Hundreds
of red-team and penetration-testing engagements delivered by hand.
Central banks
and critical infrastructure tested across Europe and the UK.
TIBER-EU
threat-led red teaming, the framework DORA now builds on.
Locked Shields
multiple years at NATO's flagship cyber-defence exercise.
