“One AI that’s so good at finding security issues and vulnerabilities in code is currently the leader in the [US HackerOne leaderboard](https://hackerone.com/leaderboard/country?year=2025&quarter=2&owasp=a1&country=US&assetType=WEB_APP&tab=bbp).
The Xbow AI carries something called automated penetration testing, which simulates cyberattacks or any kind of systematic abuse of security vulnerabilities in code. In the past, this has been done somewhat manually, making the whole process very time-consuming and therefore costly.”
