Human accountability
Human control remains part of the service.
AI works only within the agreed scope and cannot independently extend that scope or conduct destructive activity. Pentesys specialists authorise testing activity, validate findings, assess business risk and approve the results shared with you. Human-led testing remains the right route where business logic, complex attack paths or high-consequence decisions need deeper judgement.
Choose the assurance level
AI-led and human-led testing answer different questions.
We make the delivery model explicit so buyers can choose the right balance of speed, depth and independent judgement.
