Agentic pentesting blind spots: safety limits and network gaps leave assets untested

Picus Security highlights that AI-driven penetration testing, while effective at finding complex attack paths, is constrained by safety restrictions and network limitations, leaving many assets and vulnerabilities unassessed. The article argues for combining agentic pentesting with exposure validation and breach simulation to close these gaps. This matters as organizations increasingly adopt AI security tools, and the identified limitations could lead to false confidence in security posture.
