Deep Dive with XBOW: Hunting Zero-Days with Autonomous Agents
moyix · x · 2026-08-13
Security firm XBOW will host a technical webinar diving into the application of autonomous agents in zero-day hunting.
Key discussion points include:
- Agentic reasoning over signature scanning: How XBOW approaches unknown apps via reconnaissance and hypothesis generation, outperforming traditional signature-based scanning.
- Anatomy of a zero-day: Demonstrating the fully autonomous discovery process from initial foothold to chained impact.
- Full autonomy vs. human-in-the-loop: Analyzing why full autonomy scales effectively and where human intervention breaks down.
- Workflow integration: Exploring how to integrate autonomous offensive testing alongside existing pentest and AppSec workflows.
