Novee vs. Hadrian

A pentest that stops at the external attack surface misses the exploitable flaws within your environment.

Hadrian is an attack-surface platform with an on-demand pentest bolted on, run by a single AI Orchestrator with no independent validation, and limited to external web. Novee goes inside your applications, verifies what’s exploitable, and keeps testing as your code changes.

Novee vs. Hadrian at a glance

Challenges with Hadrian

External attack-surface visibility tells you what’s exposed, but it stops well short of proving what an attacker could do with it.

Challenges with Hadrian:

  • EASM first, application testing bolted on.

    Hadrian is built around external attack-surface management, and its application pentest capability is an add-on rather than the core of the platform.
  • On-demand, one test at a time.

    Hadrian runs on demand, so your applications are only checked at the moment you commission a scan. Everything that ships in the weeks between those tests goes out untested and unmonitored.
  • A single orchestrator, lightly validated.

    With no second independent agent and no deterministic confirmation, findings arrive without proof that they're truly exploitable.
    Narrow coverage. Hadrian tests external web assets, leaving internal applications, mobile apps, and AI applications out entirely.
  • Priced per test.

    Every assessment is a separate purchase, so deeper or more frequent testing means a bigger bill, and coverage ends up rationed against the budget.

Why Novee Over Hadrian?

Attack-surface visibility is a starting point. What security teams need next is proof of what’s exploitable inside the application, confirmed continuously as the code keeps changing.

Where Novee goes further:

  • Goes inside the application.

    Novee works through business logic, authorization rules, and workflows like an attacker, creating multi-step attack chains that require deep understanding of the application.
  • Coverage across web, API, mobile, and AI.

    A single platform tests your web apps, APIs, mobile apps, and AI applications, bringing the internal, mobile, and AI surfaces an external scan leaves out into scope.
  • Proves what's exploitable.

    Every finding is independently confirmed, plus deterministically checked when applicable, and arrives with a working exploit, replication steps, and a PoC script.
  • A proprietary offensive AI stack.

    Novee owns and optimizes the entire AI stack, model and harness, meaning maximized efficiency gains and accuracy.
  • Continuous and change-triggered.

    Testing runs on its own and fires the moment code ships through CI/CD, so you know your posture in real time instead of learning it a quarter later from the next scheduled test.
  • A closed loop to a verified fix.

    Remediation is written for your actual WAF, backend, and codebase, and once a fix ships Novee retests on its own to confirm the vulnerability is gone.

Novee vs. Hadrian Across Key Areas

Capability Novee AI Pentesting Hadrian
Coverage

External web assets and EASM. No internal apps, mobile, or AI applications.

Application context and depth

EASM-first attack-surface mapping. No business logic testing, and no compounding application context.

Continuous, change-triggered testing

On-demand, per-test only. No continuous or change-triggered workflow.

Offensive model and harness

No proprietary model described; capability likely relies on third-party models.

Validation architecture

A single AI Orchestrator with human review. No independent second agent, and findings without confirmed exploit proof.

Closed-loop remediation & retesting

No confirmed stack-specific remediation or automatic retesting.

Pricing

Per-test pricing, starting at €3,000 per test.

Workflow & integrations

Connects to tools like Jira, Slack, ServiceNow, and Microsoft Teams, but no CI/CD integration for change-triggered testing.

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

“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

Depth Inside Your Applications

The Problem with Hadrian:

Hadrian is built for external attack-surface management, and it can tell you which assets are exposed to the internet. Exposure is only the first question, though. That an asset is reachable says nothing about whether an attacker can get through it, and Hadrian's EASM-first design makes no claim to test the business logic where the real damage happens.

How Novee Goes Further:

Novee starts where exposure ends, going inside the application to test how it really works. It builds an Asset Intelligence Model of your roles, permissions, workflows, and business rules, then reasons and exploits against the live system, turning up the authorization gaps, the abusable workflows, and the chained attacks a surface scan can never reach. You end up with proof of which exposed doors actually lead somewhere.

Continuous Testing

The Problem with Hadrian:

Hadrian's pentest is on-demand and priced per test, so most teams run it occasionally, often quarterly, and see their posture only at those isolated moments.

How Novee Keeps Testing:

Novee tests continuously and triggers itself the moment code ships through your CI/CD, with no scheduling and no waiting for the next engagement. Between a competitor's quarterly scans, roughly ninety days of new code would go unexamined; with Novee that window closes to nothing, because every change is a reason to test again. Coverage also deepens each cycle as the Asset Intelligence Model learns more about your application.

Validated Findings and Verified Fixes

The Problem with Hadrian:

Hadrian runs a single AI Orchestrator over one pass, with a human reviewing the output. There is no second independent agent working blind and no deterministic confirmation, so a false positive has fewer ways to get caught, and the findings that do come back arrive without a confirmed, working exploit behind them.

How Novee Proves and Verifies:

Every Novee finding passes through three independent agents, a finder, a validator, and a blind re-validator with no shared context, plus deterministic checks where a result can be proven by execution. If any stage fails, the finding is dropped, so what reaches you comes with a working exploit and a fix written for your stack that Novee retests automatically once it ships.
