Hot take: AI won't replace pentesters. Not because of capability, because of context.
Two findings that prove it:
1. Caption encoder, unauthenticated access - only found because a tester checked the broadcast schedule before retesting
2. Source code monorepo compromise - started with one suspicious VM timestamp a human noticed while reading script output line by line

Join us on June 12 at 12pm CDT for Hacking in the Age of AI: AI as the Attacker’s Toolkit.
AI is changing how attackers move, but it’s also changing how our pentesters test. In this Hacker Happy Hour, Nick Aures, Nate Fair, Stephen Naragon, and Nick Berrie will dig into how AI is being used for faster recon, custom payloads, vulnerability discovery, social engineering, and AI red teaming.
If your adversaries are using AI to move faster, are you testing like they attack?

Tenant enumeration is dead.
Microsoft has now patched both techniques that allowed full tenant domain discovery from a single unauthenticated request.
That changes recon against M365 environments significantly.
The signals still exist, tenant IDs, MOERA prefixes, brand metadata, but no single query gives you the full picture anymore. Effective enumeration now means chaining techniques together, validating against large datasets, and in some cases requiring authentication.
Juan Pablo Gomes Postigo breaks down:
• what the original technique was
• what still works today
• how we updated hubs.la/Q04hDQ9f0 going forward

🚨 You got bait! We recently spotted a phishing email announcing access to “Claude Ads” - supposedly a new ad platform for Anthropic’s Claude AI.
There’s just one problem: Claude Ads doesn’t exist.
The scary part? The email looked incredibly believable.
The attackers replicated Anthropic’s branding almost perfectly polished design, AI buzzwords, realistic product language, and even a newly registered domain: claude-ads dot ai
It looked exactly like the kind of AI product launch you’d expect to see today.
Always verify the sender and domain before clicking.
Have you seen similar AI-themed phishing emails lately?

Your e-commerce API isn’t protecting customers. Your cart token is.
One leaked cart ID can expose addresses, phone numbers, and order history and most platforms treat it like a session cookie.
How we actually pentest commerce workflows (not just endpoints):

Small Vite misconfig → full CI/CD compromise. No zero-days - just exposed secrets in JavaScript and chained weaknesses.

PTaaS is better than annual pentests, but it’s still not continuous security testing.
Fixed scopes + engagement windows can’t keep up with modern, fast-changing environments. The real risk often lives between tests.

The ROI problem in #ASM is about tracking meaningful outcomes.

📊 Time to ownership
🔐 Reduction in risky endpoints
🗑️ Decommission timing
Attack Surface Management usually proves visibility, not safety.
Teams count assets and alerts, but can’t show reduced exposure.
ROI only appears when risky assets get owned and fixed faster, not when inventories grow.
