XBOW on Smashing Security

This episode of Smashing Security is supported by Expo. Joe, let me ask you something. If attackers are using AI to find vulnerabilities faster than ever, what do you reckon defenders should be doing? Running around like headless chickens in a blind panic? Well, I get I guess that's one option, but a better one might be to fight fire with fire. Security teams these days are expected to test more apps more often and somehow not slow down development. It's an impossible ask. So things end up shipping with holes in them, I guess. Yeah. Pen testing is one of the best ways to find real risks. But most teams simply don't have the time, the budget, or the people to test as much as they need to. And that's where today's sponsor comes in, Expo. Okay. I'll bite. What does Expo actually do? Well, it's an autonomous offense security platform that helps security teams scale. What does that mean in English, Graham? It means Expo doesn't just wave its arms around pointing at theoretical issues, It safely launches tests like an actual attacker would, works out what's genuinely exploitable, and then hands your team reproducible proof so you know exactly what needs fixing. So instead of waiting weeks for a traditional pen test Expo can deliver full expert level testing continuously. And here's the coolest part. It was built by the team behind GitHub Copilot and trained with elite offensive security experts. It's made for the AI era where defenders need speed, depth, and proof. Where do people go to find out more? All you gotta do is head over to expo.com. That's xbow.com to start a pen test today.
