The Problem

Enterprise penetration testing is still largely episodic, expensive, and slow, while attackers continuously probe internet-facing systems with automation. Security teams receive static reports that age quickly as infrastructure, code, and cloud permissions change. The gap is a concrete operational workflow: knowing which current asset combinations create an exploitable path today and what to fix first.

Potential Solution

Build a cloud-connected security validation tool that ingests asset inventory, cloud configuration, vulnerability scanner results, identity permissions, and network exposure data. It constructs an attack graph, runs controlled AI-guided simulations against safe replicas or metadata models, and outputs ranked attack paths with remediation steps. The first version can focus on cloud and external exposure rather than full autonomous exploitation.

Why Now?

AI-enabled offensive tooling is making attacker speed and scale a board-level concern. Enterprises already have scanners and asset systems, but they lack a continuous workflow that converts those signals into validated attack paths and remediation priorities.

Three forces define this problem space: AI is accelerating both attackers and defenders. Exploit chains are now quicker than ever, vulnerability volume is growing with no signs of slowing. The diversity of Amazon's asset footprint demands solutions that work across fundamentally different compute models. You will own the product vision that ties all of this together.

Separately, vulnerability intelligence firm Volncheck reports that more than a quarter of exploited flaws are now weaponized within 24 hours of going public. That leaves most security teams badly outpaced. The typical enterprise still runs a formal penetration test once or twice a year and takes a median of 43 days to remediate what that test finds. Between engagements and while a finding works its way through the fixed queue, applications sit exposed to exactly the kind of fast-moving AI-assisted attackers described above. AI Point closes that gap. Purpose-built agents map an organization's live attack surface across apps and APIs, build a threat model, and craft real exploits, the same way an attacker would, then run them against the live application.
