Products in this niche detect security weaknesses, audit codebases, and execute proof-of-concept exploits to validate system vulnerabilities for security researchers, red teams, and penetration testers. Unlike passive compliance monitors or standard defensive suites, these tools combine deep attack surface discovery with active exploitation capabilities to demonstrate real-world risk.
