Novee vs. Armadin

AI hacker. AI defender. Past the perimeter, inside the application.

Armadin simulates how an attacker breaks into your perimeter. Novee proves, and fixes, what’s exploitable once they’re inside your applications: business logic, authorization, and API abuse, continuously, with a verified fix.

See what Novee finds inside your applications that a perimeter simulation can’t.

Novee vs. Armadin at a glance

Challenges with Armadin

Armadin delivers kill-chain coverage across the external and infrastructure surface, but it’s built for the perimeter. On the application layer, where modern breaches increasingly land, the gaps show.

Challenges with Armadin

  • Built for the perimeter, not the application.

    Armadin is an infra and kill-chain simulator; it isn't built to reason about application business logic, authorization flaws, or API abuse — the issues behind most breaches.

  • Campaign-style, not continuous.

    Armadin runs point-in-time engagements with a human in the loop per campaign — closer to a scheduled red-team exercise than change-triggered coverage.

  • No compounding context.

    Armadin doesn't maintain a living model of your application across runs, so context resets between campaigns and testing doesn't get more targeted over time.

  • Exploitability asserted, not independently re-proven.

    Armadin proves the break-in with logged kill chains, but that proof comes from the run itself rather than independent agents re-exploiting blind.

  • No closed remediation loop.

    Armadin stops at prioritized recommendations; a verified, stack-specific fix and automatic retest aren't part of the platform today — automated remediation is described as a future capability.

Why Novee Over Armadin?

Novee is an AI penetration testing platform built for continuous offensive security; an AI hacker and an AI defender in one continuous loop. It reasons about how your applications actually work, then finds, proves, and closes the real exploitable risk inside them.

Where Novee goes further:

  • Depth inside the application.

    Novee surfaces business logic flaws, authorization gaps, and chained app and API abuse — the exploitable risk that lives past the perimeter and that a kill-chain simulator isn't built to reach.

  • Continuous, not campaign-style.

    Novee runs continuously at CI/CD speed, triggered by every deploy and API change — so coverage keeps pace with your environment instead of arriving on a campaign schedule.

  • Context that compounds every cycle.

    The Asset Intelligence Model builds a living picture of each asset — workflows, permissions, APIs, business logic — so coverage expands and testing sharpens over time instead of resetting.

  • A purpose-trained offensive model.

    Novee's multi-model Offensive System pairs a proprietary offensive reasoning model with best-in-class frontier models — each agent optimized for its task, not a general-purpose model applied to security.

  • Validation you can trust.

    Every finding is proven by three independent Validators — one exploits, one re-exploits blind, one validates — with deterministic checks where possible, so exploitability is independently confirmed, not self-asserted.

  • Closed-loop remediation.

    Every finding ships with a fix tailored to your WAF, backend, and codebase, then Novee automatically retests to confirm the fix held and introduced no new risk.

What security leaders say

“As the leading agentic orchestration platform for the enterprise, data isolation between our customers is non-negotiable. We need to prove that continuously, not once a year. Novee adapted to our multi-tenant SaaS product within days.”

Scott Roberts
CISO
john

“Our pen tests took weeks and consistently missed critical issues. Novee found them immediately and gave us instant remediation guidance. It showed us what we'd been missing.”

John Barrow
CISO

"Traditional DAST produced either zero or irrelevant results. We needed something that could identify complex vulnerabilities like server-side request forgery. Novee consistently surfaces findings we simply weren't seeing before."

Robert Kugler
Head of Security, IT & Compliance

“Novee rethinks penetration testing for how attacks actually happen today. Continuous, attacker-level validation that proves what’s exploitable and shows teams exactly how to fix it is a meaningful shift for modern security programs.”

Troy Wilkinson
Former Fortune 500 CISO
tamir ronen

"The hardest vulnerabilities for us to catch aren’t misconfigurations or known patterns. They’re business logic issues that only show up when someone understands how the application is supposed to work. That’s exactly the gap Novee closes."

Tamir Ronen
CISO, HiBob

"We had EASM tools and manual pentests that produced mostly noise. Novee came in black-box with zero credentials and within days found dozens of real vulnerabilities we could actually fix."

Itzik Menashe
CISO, Global VP IT InfoSec & productivity

“As an AI researcher, what stood out about Novee is that they built a proprietary offensive AI model designed to think like an attacker, rather than wrapping generic LLMs. That matters for enterprise-grade results.”

Tal Shapira
PhD, CTO

“This was by far the deepest and fastest security assessment we’ve had. Novee uncovered issues across our web and mobile applications that had gone undetected before, and the level of depth was unlike anything we’d seen from other vendors.”

Amir Tito
CISO

“We had urgent compliance need and we couldn’t wait weeks for DAST findings, an external exposure audit, and an in-depth pentest report. Instead Novee came in and delivered immediate value with their AI pentesting platform; with their findings, we closed our gaps and quickly met the criteria we needed for certification.”

Ron Reiter
CTO

"Before Novee, we were getting a snapshot once a year. Now we have continuous coverage across our application portfolio, we're already finding things that prior manual pentests missed completely, and I have real confidence that our security posture reflects what's actually in our environment."

The Novee Advantages

Past the perimeter: what's exploitable inside the application

The Problem with Armadin:

Armadin's adversary emulation is genuinely strong at one job — showing how an attacker breaks into the perimeter across external, cloud, network, and domain. But a kill-chain simulator stops where the application begins: it isn't built to reason about business logic, broken authorization, or chained API abuse — the exploitable risk that lives inside, where most breaches actually land.

How Novee is different:

Novee was built for the application layer from the ground up. Its Analyzers learn how each application is supposed to work, and its Hunters test that logic the way a real attacker would — surfacing business logic flaws, authorization gaps, and chained API abuse, proving each one with a working exploit, then handing back a stack-specific fix. Not just how they get in — what's exploitable once they're there.

Continuous, not campaign-style

Problem with Armadin:

Continuous, adaptive offense is the right direction, and Armadin markets exactly that. In practice, it runs campaign-style engagements — its own descriptions cite a handful of human decisions per campaign — which is closer to a scheduled exercise than change-triggered coverage. Between campaigns, your environment keeps changing and the testing doesn't.

How Novee is different:

Novee runs continuously, at CI/CD speed, triggered by every deploy and API change — and the Asset Intelligence Model compounds context every cycle, so coverage expands rather than resets between runs. Testing keeps pace with your environment instead of catching up to it once a quarter, and every change is met by an attacker that already understands your application.

Validation you can trust — independent, not self-asserted

Problem with Armadin:

Proving exploitability with logged kill chains is a real strength, and it's the right bar to hold any vendor to. But that proof comes from the same run that produced the finding — exploitability asserted by the agent that found it, rather than confirmed by an independent check built to try to break it.

How Novee is different:

Novee clears the same bar a different way. Every finding is proven by three independent Validators plus deterministic checks — one exploits, one re-exploits blind with no shared context, one validates — before it ever reaches your team. If any stage fails, the finding is never reported. The result is zero false positives by design, and proof you can take straight to engineering.

See Novee where the breach actually lands

Armadin shows how an attacker reaches your door. If your real exploitable risk lives inside your applications — business logic, authorization, API abuse — that's the layer Novee was built for: proven continuously, and closed with a verified fix. Start with a domain name and see results in days.
