Pentest and patch every deploy with AI

AI attacks don’t wait for your next sprint. BestDefense continuously pentests every deploy, proves which vulnerabilities are actually exploitable, and generates fixes so high-compliance SaaS teams can patch real risks before remediation windows close. Unlike static scanners, BestDefense validates exploits through execution, cuts false positives, and helps developers move from finding issues to fixing them faster.
BestDefense.io
BestDefense helps teams continuously test, understand, and remediate web application and infrastructure risk from one dashboard.
We built it because security is still too expensive, fragmented, and manual for many startups, SMBs, MSPs, and lean engineering teams. Most tools either scan, report, load test, or suggest fixes. BestDefense connects those steps: validate your site, run automated security and scalability tests, review clear findings, and use AI-assisted remediation to move from vulnerability to fix faster.
For Product Hunt: use code PHLAUNCH30 for 30% off your first month plus a free onboarding/security posture review.
Most automated pentesting platforms completely choke on complex authentication loops, like a multi-step login with a specific oauth provider. qq to@derek_foster5 can we record a login sequence flow via an extension or session token setup to let the agent past the login wall?
BestDefense.io
@priya_kushwaha1 great question!
There are two authentication options which may interest you:
Puppeteer: you can write your own script, validate it works, and plug it into the test configuration
AI Assisted: you can write in plain english the steps to perform a successful login into your application as if you were speaking to a QA person.
We provide examples in the platform that you can use as a baseline for each of those options.
Thanks @derek_foster5 the AI-assisted login option looks promising for complex OAuth flows. I'll give it a try. 👍
The auth flow is where this gets real. For AI-assisted login, I’d want every run to leave a receipt: test account used, scopes, destructive actions blocked, and the proof that made a finding exploitable.
Otherwise the fix is useful, but hard to trust in a compliance review.

@blah_mad we cherish governance in this environment. You'll always know who ran what, why, and when
The part I'd want to understand before trusting this on every deploy is the patch side. When the AI generates a fix, what stops it from quietly changing behavior or introducing a regression while it closes the hole? Is there a verification loop that re-runs the original exploit against the patched build to confirm the vuln is actually dead? That feedback loop feels like the whole ballgame.
BestDefense.io
@peterdigitalis there are a few measures that we take for this.
We identify traceability, no dead code updates, patches are intentionally built using the specific framework;
You have two paths for fix confirmation; either rerun the same full test against the same target, or 'replay' a verified exploit individually without running a full spectrum test. Security regression testing.
Leverage our guardrail mechanism to prevent risky changes to critical parts of the code base
I've been using BestDefense.io for a few weeks now, and I'm impressed with how seamlessly it integrates into our CI/CD pipeline. The automated pentest feature is a game-changer - no more tedious manual testing or waiting for human experts to review our code. The AI-driven patching process has also saved us a significant amount of time and effort.
What I'd love to see next from the team is better integration with our existing monitoring tools, such as Prometheus and Grafana. This would allow us to get a more comprehensive view of our application's security posture in real-time. Has anyone else had experience with this?
BestDefense.io
@demi_tan that sounds like an excellent roadmap integration! What kind of metrics would you hope to capture?
Is the product running now? Site looks like vibecoded
BestDefense.io
@nazar_tan it is live currently!
We'd appreciate your feedback.
Our front-end skills need some love so we definitely got some AI assistance in that area, hah! We are all career backend developers
does it connect with gitlab?
BestDefense.io
@marc_vuit it does!
We are currently looking to double our Integrations this quarter as well
