What We Do
Strix is an autonomous, AI-driven penetration-testing platform delivered as software-as-a-service. It helps security teams continuously secure their full technology stack by testing code, APIs, web applications, infrastructure, and cloud environments. The platform discovers vulnerabilities, validates exploitability with proof-of-concept evidence, prioritizes real impact, and can generate merge-ready fixes, while supporting self-hosted, on-premise, VPC, and air-gapped deployments before vulnerable changes reach production.
