To get ahead of rising AI-driven cyberattacks, Wiz is scanning critical US infrastructure as a public-good effort using its Red Agent and Gemini 3.8 Flash Cyber.
The division of labor: Red Agent performs external "black box" penetration testing from an attacker's perspective, while CodeMender scans codebases internally as a "white box" tool. Using both together offers defense in depth.
