Trusted Results. Scalable Coverage. Faster Insight.
Application penetration testing at scale doesn’t have to force a trade-off between speed and trust. Bishop Fox combines 20 years of deep offensive security expertise with AI-assisted coverage to deliver validated, actionable findings quickly across modern application portfolios.
THE REALITY
Security teams must secure dozens or hundreds of applications with limited time and resources but attackers only need one exploitable weakness.
Traditional approaches fall short:
The result? Untested applications, hidden attack surfaces, and vulnerabilities you can't see.
THE BISHOP FOX APPROACH
This isn't about AI hype. This is about outcomes. It's about expanding what penetration testing can accomplish at scale, without compromising the rigor, credibility, or trust you expect from Bishop Fox. AI-powered application penetration testing combines the best of both worlds: the speed and scale of automation with the expertise and validation only human testers can provide.
Our proprietary AI engine acts as a force multiplier for our penetration testers, enabling:
GREATER COVERAGE AT SCALE: Test entire application portfolios by exploring more attack paths and surfaces within a fixed timeframe.
ATTACKER-REALISTIC TESTING: Focus testing on realistic attacker behavior and chaining rather than isolated, low-value findings.
FASTER TIME TO INSIGHT: Deliver validated findings in days, not weeks!
Bishop Fox penetration testers validate every finding to ensure accuracy and eliminate false positives, delivering:

This human-on-the-loop approach delivers the scale of automation with the trust and accuracy of expert penetration testing.
What to Expect
You’re not buying software your team has to learn, configure, or manage. Bishop Fox delivers application penetration testing as a fully managed service, combining technology-assisted scale with hands-on expert execution, validation, and reporting.
We handle the complexity so your team can focus on fixing real risk, not operating testing infrastructure or triaging noisy output.
Testing begins quickly through the Bishop Fox portal with minimal friction. No complex questionnaires or drawn-out kickoff meetings. Simply provide your application details. We handle the rest.
AI accelerates discovery and analysis, while experienced Bishop Fox testers remain actively involved at every critical decision point. Humans handle complex authentication, review and validate findings, confirm real-world exploitability, and apply business context. This ensures no high-impact issues are delivered without expert judgment. The result is scalable testing with the trust, accuracy, and accountability of human-led penetration testing.
Every vulnerability is reviewed, tested, and validated by a Bishop Fox penetration tester. We assess real-world exploitability, determine business impact, eliminate false positives, and provide context your team can act on immediately. No unvalidated AI output. No scanner noise. Just results you can trust.
Human-in-the-Loop (HITL) testing customized to your compliance requirements, threat models, or specific vulnerability classes.
Once your application information is validated in the portal, Bishop Fox begins testing immediately, with activity visible within hours. Findings are delivered in the portal as they are validated, and most tests are completed within two to five business days. Built-in portal integrations with ticketing systems like ServiceNow and Jira help teams to move directly from findings to remediation.

WHAT MAKES COSMOS AI DIFFERENT
AI + Human Expertise, By Design
AI doesn't replace penetration testers, it expands what they can do. Cosmos AI identifies and explores attack paths. Bishop Fox experts validate exploitability, assess impact, and ensure accuracy. No unvalidated findings.
Built for Mature Enterprises
Designed for large, complex application portfolios in regulated environments. Auditable workflows, expert-reviewed results, and customization to meet your security and compliance requirements.
Attacker-Realistic Testing
We test authenticated applications because most real risk exists after login. We don't focus on isolated issues. We focus on exploitable attack paths, reflecting how real adversaries chain weaknesses together, not how scanners report individual bugs.
Faster Time to Value
Testing starts almost immediately after the application is submitted through the Bishop Fox portal. Findings are delivered as they are validated, with final results in approximately 5 days instead of weeks.
