A WAF blocks attacks it has seen before. A pentest finds your bugs — then hands you a to-do list. Sectora finds the bug, proves it's exploitable with zero false positives, and virtually patches it at the edge — the same day, with no code deploy.

// one continuous loop, not four disconnected tools
An AI agent tests your live app the way an attacker would — authenticated, multi-identity, chaining weak signals.
Nothing ships unproven. Each finding is a demonstrated exploit with a replayable proof — no false positives to triage.
The proven exploit becomes a virtual patch at the edge — mitigated in minutes, before you’ve deployed a line of code.
The same engine re-runs the exploit to confirm the patch held — then keeps watching. The loop never stops.
↺ runs continuously — every finding proven, patched, and re-verified
// why not just run a DAST scan?
Your DAST scanner is a great net for the known. A pentest is the adversary that thinks.
Sectora runs both — the same platform gives you the continuous scanner and the AI pentest. Here’s what the pentest adds on top of the scan you already run.
Run DAST to catch the known, continuously. Run the pentest to find what only a thinking attacker would — then let Shield patch it.
// what each layer actually does
A WAF and a pentest each do half the job. Only the closed loop does find → prove → patch → verify as one motion.
The deliverable
Auto-scoped from your repos, endpoints & roles — small app, small price.
Continuous
Ongoing offensive testing — new code ships, new tests run.

One closed loop, fully automatic — from finding a vulnerability to a verified patch at the edge.
Sectora scans your apps, APIs, and dependencies and finds the real vulnerabilities — SQL injection, XSS, broken access control, CORS and cookie misconfigurations, exposed secrets, vulnerable packages.
Each finding becomes a precise patch at the edge — targeting that exact endpoint, parameter, or response header. Live in minutes, with no code change and no redeploy.
Every patch is replayed to prove it blocks the attack before it counts as protected — then retires itself automatically once a rescan confirms the code is fixed.
Every WAF blocks SQL injection. Here's what the others can't do.
Your scan finds a SQL injection, an XSS, or a CORS/cookie misconfiguration; Shield instantly writes a precise patch at the edge for that exact endpoint, then replays the attack to confirm it is blocked. The patch retires itself once a rescan shows the code is fixed. Invicti, Burp, and Acunetix find the bug and hand you a ticket — Sectora finds it, patches it, and proves it, automatically.
Shield learns what legitimate traffic looks like for your site specifically, then flags requests that do not fit — even when each one looks clean on its own. It sharpens from your team's "attack / not an attack" feedback, and never trains a shared model on your data.
Point Shield at your AI/LLM endpoints and it checks every prompt with both fast pattern-matching and an AI model trained on real attacks — catching reworded jailbreaks that simple rules miss. Included on Pro and up; the rule-based layer is always free. (Cloudflare's version is enterprise-only.)
A full REST API, signed webhooks for every security event, one-click export of your rules to other firewalls, and a learning history you can review or wipe any time. Your rules belong to you.
Most real vulnerabilities live behind authentication. Capture a logged-in session — one click with the browser extension, no passwords or MFA codes ever sent to Sectora — and Sectora attacks your app as that user: the real API your single-page app calls, run through the full OWASP API Top 10 suite.
One-click session capture
A browser extension hands off your logged-in session for targets behind CAPTCHA, MFA, or SSO. Zero credentials reach Sectora — only the post-login session.
Authenticated API attack surface
IDOR/BOLA, broken authentication, mass assignment, and injection — tested against the exact request shapes your app uses, not a guessed schema.
IDOR proven by replay
Replays each read with no session (missing auth) and as a second low-privilege identity (broken object-level auth). Every finding is double-confirmed — “this exact object is returned to another user.”
Included on Pro and above. The Free plan scans public (unauthenticated) pages.

Every layer of your application deserves dedicated security
Shield turns your own scan findings into edge patches automatically — no rules to hand-write. It learns what normal traffic looks like for your site, inspects every prompt to your AI endpoints, and gets sharper from your team's feedback. Everything it learns is auditable and yours to wipe — at a fraction of enterprise WAF pricing.
Every scan finding becomes a virtual patch at the edge — you review the diff before it ships
An AI reviews yesterday's blocked attacks each day and proposes tighter rules
Learns your site's normal traffic and flags requests that don't belong
Gets smarter from your team's "this was an attack / this wasn't" feedback
Firewall for AI: catches prompt injection, jailbreaks, and PII leaks on your AI endpoints
No lock-in: export your rules anytime, review or wipe what it learned, full REST API
The only platform that combines AI penetration testing with AI Security Posture Management. Register your AI endpoints, run automated OWASP LLM Top 10 and MCP Top 10 scans, track risk scores per endpoint, and enforce AI policies across your organization.
AI Pen Testing: prompt injection, jailbreaks, tool poisoning, data extraction — all automated
AI SPM: endpoint inventory, per-endpoint A-F risk grades, and policy enforcement
AI Security Audit: deep LLM-powered code review that finds business logic vulnerabilities no scanner can
Not every vulnerable dependency is exploitable. Our reachability analysis traces imports from your code to the vulnerable function — so you know which CVEs actually matter. Supports 13 ecosystems including npm, Go, Python, Rust, Ruby, Maven, NuGet, Dart, Elixir, Swift, and more.
Trace CVEs to actual code imports
Container image scanning for OS-level vulnerabilities
Auto-fix PRs, license compliance, SBOM import/export
When both static and dynamic analysis confirm the same vulnerability, you know it's real. Cross-scanner correlation matches SAST CWE findings to DAST-discovered endpoints, eliminating false positives and prioritizing confirmed exploitable issues.
CWE-to-endpoint matching
Confirmed findings get highest priority
Unified view across static and dynamic results
Live feeds from NVD, GHSA, KEV, and EPSS continuously matched against your technology stack. When a new CVE affects your dependencies, you're alerted instantly with EPSS exploitation probability and KEV status.
Real-time CVE matching to your tech stack
EPSS scoring and KEV active exploitation alerts
Threat Intel API with STIX 2.1 export
AI-generated code ("vibe coding") introduces new risks. Our Vibe Risk Score detects AI-generated code via git commit pattern analysis and code heuristics, then combines it with dependency health, slopsquatting risk, and license compliance into an actionable A-F risk grade.
