If you’re doing an application pen test, it should actually help you understand risk.

On Jan 21, Dan Petro walks through how app pen tests work in practice, common gaps, and how to get better results in modern, API-heavy environments.

AI is shaking up cybersecurity, and if you’re still red teaming like it’s 2020… why? Attackers definitely aren’t. AI is making them faster and way more creative.

2026 is going to push security teams harder than any year before it.
More AI. More connected systems. More attacker automation.

Our leadership team breaks down the forces that will reshape pen testing, CISO priorities, hardware security, and Red Team specialization next year.
