Yaga Exploring Web Applications

Web applications are the primary vector in 68% of confirmed incidents (Verizon DBIR 2025). This article details the seven-phase pipeline Yaga uses to conduct autonomous web penetration tests: from intelligent reconnaissance and technology fingerprinting to multi-stage exploit chaining, powered by a Knowledge Graph and Chain Engine. Across 150 cases covering the entire OWASP Top 10, Yaga achieves a 98% detection rate including 97.6% for XSS and 93.3% for exploit chains with a 1.8% false positive

How YAGA Scores Contextual Criticality

How YAGA turns technical, threat and business-context signals into real risk. The report details the full mathematical pipeline (KEV, EPSS, ARO, Bayesian inference, SLE/ALE in the FAIR model, environment multiplier, historical correlation and the technical-severity floor) and shows, in a case study, how the same CVSS 9.8 CVE yields Medium criticality in staging and Critical in production.

Yaga Containment Architecture

We introduce the Safety-Effectiveness Pareto Score (SEPS), a composite metric that quantifies the trade-off between operational safety and offensive capability, and we detail the hallucination detection pipeline that ensures every reported finding corresponds to a real and exploitable vulnerability.

New Pentest AI-Native

Artificial intelligence is transforming pentests with the AI Native model, where an AI agent conducts thorough tests while experts validate results. Discover how this approach boosts efficiency, mitigates risks, and enhances security in our rapidly evolving digital landscape.

Yaga Exploring Linux Environments

YAGA uncovers 12 vulnerabilities in Linux utilities on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, including bypasses of CVE patches. Discover how this autonomous tool overcomes the limitations of traditional methods and exposes critical flaws that could leave your system vulnerable. Don't be left at the mercy of incomplete fixes!

Yaga Exploring Mobile Applications

YAGA treats mobile as a distinct attack surface, with dedicated methodology for Android and iOS. Its architecture combines static analysis, dynamic instrumentation, and cross-platform correlation in an autonomous cycle — identifying everything from unprotected exported components to exposed tokens and unvalidated deep links. Black Box, Gray Box, or White Box: YAGA adapts its orchestration to the available access level and delivers complete exploitation chains with full evidence.
