The AI Pentesting Platform Checklist for Regulated Enterprises
Regulated enterprises evaluating AI pentesting platforms should assess eight capabilities: FedRAMP Moderate authorization or higher, multi-framework compliance support, human-in-the-loop with agentic AI, verified zero-false-positive findings, bidirectional workflow integrations, self-service launch, auditable coverage visibility, and full offensive security platform capabilities. Vendors who can't clearly distinguish their AI from an automated scanner are likely selling exactly that.

The Hidden Costs of Building an AI Pentesting Solution
Most security teams underestimate what it costs to build an AI pentesting solution in house. People, AI token costs, infrastructure, and compliance gaps add up faster than the initial business case accounts for, and the hidden bill usually arrives in year two. Iβve been hearing the same question from security leaders lately. Theyβre all asking [β¦]

Why the Future of Pentesting Needs Humans and Agentic AI Working Together
Most enterprises test less than a third of their attack surface, and attackers have already moved to AI-speed offense. Agentic AI closes the coverage gap, but only when paired with human expertise: an AI-first, human-validated model that secures critical infrastructure without sacrificing operational safety.

Microsoftβs reset, a new era for Seattle startups, and how AI is changing everything for founders

On this weekβs show, weβre on the GeekWire deck for our annual founder open house, where we dig into Microsoftβs latest round of layoffs β including a major Xbox shakeup β and the surprising rise of hardware companies on the GeekWire 200.
Then we sit down with four guests to talk about how AI is reshaping how they build:Β
- Jana Schuster of StackIQ, whose AI-native platform helps companies find redundancy in their software spending β like Rocket Money, but for business β with a small team.
- Blake Resnick and David Benowitz of Brinc Drones, whose mechanical engineers are now vibe coding their own prototypes;
- Boaz Ashkenazy of Shift AI, whoβs setting up always-on agents and rethinking how we interact with AI tools.
Finally, this weekβs GeekWire Trivia Challenge: how a longtime T-Mobile executive got his start in the wireless business, and the star-studded history of T-Mobile celebrity endorsers.
Stories mentioned:
- Microsoft cuts 4,800 jobs, about 2% globally, revamps salesforce and launches massive Xbox overhaul
- GeekWire 200 update: New unicorns and a hardware surge remake our list of top Pacific NW startups
- Former GitHub CEOβs startup Entire unveils its answer to the crush of AI coding agents
