Description

🖼 Tool Name:

Horizon3.ai

 

🔖 Approved Categories:

  • Testing & Quality Assurance (Autonomous, production-safe security validation and penetration testing)

  • Governance & Compliance (Security posture auditing for regulatory frameworks like SOC2, ISO 27001, FedRAMP, and CMMC)

     

✏️ What does this tool offer?

  • Autonomous Offensive Security (NodeZero®): Horizon3.ai’s core product, NodeZero, is an automated penetration testing platform that operates as a "digital purple team". It attacks production environments just like a real-world threat actor to discover and prove exploitable vulnerabilities without disrupting business services.

  • Continuous Internal & External Auditing:

    • External Pentesting: Conducts passive enumeration (using DNS and OSINT) to map out your public-facing internet footprint and highlight perimeter exposure.

    • Internal Pentesting: Simulates a compromised insider or credential leak, mapping paths to domain compromise, business email takeover, and sensitive data leakage.

  • Active Cloud Security Validation: Evaluates identity and access management (IAM) privileges, container configurations, and misconfigurations across AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Kubernetes environments.

  • Proof-of-Concept Exploit Verification: Unlike traditional scanners that generate lengthy lists of theoretical vulnerabilities, NodeZero provides real-world photographic and script-based evidence of actual exploitability, showing exactly how an attacker could pivot through your network.

  • 1-Click Remediation Verification: Once vulnerabilities are patched, teams can trigger an automated re-test with a single click to instantly confirm the exploit path has been successfully closed.

  • NodeZero Insights: A unified compliance and risk management dashboard that tracks Mean Time to Remediation (MTTR), monitors systemic vulnerabilities (like credential reuse), and generates boardroom-ready risk profiles.

     

What does it actually offer based on user experience?

  • Massive Reduction in Penetration Testing Costs: Enterprise users praise the platform for replacing expensive annual or semi-annual manual consulting engagements with continuous, on-demand automated testing.

  • No False Positive Fatigue: IT security teams appreciate receiving "proven exploit paths" instead of thousands of noisy PDF alerts, helping them focus resources strictly on remediating what actually poses a threat.

  • Simple, Fast Setup: Engineers note that tests can be configured and launched in minutes without deep offensive security expertise, training, or manual scripting.

🤖 Does it include automation?

Yes, Horizon3.ai utilizes end-to-end automated offensive processes:

  • Autonomous Attack Path Orchestration: Dynamically chains multiple vulnerabilities, weak credentials, and misconfigurations in real time to reach domain admin rights.

  • Automated Patch Verification: Programmatically executes targeted regression exploits to verify remediation success.

  • Continuous Discovery Scheduling: Autonomously schedules external and internal network evaluations without manual intervention.

💰 Pricing Model

  • Item Details: Enterprise B2B SaaS Subscriptions / Custom Tiered and Ad-Hoc Plans.

  • General Concept: NodeZero pricing is based on active asset counts (IP addresses) and the contract term, typically starting in packages of 500 assets on a 12-month cycle. Ad-hoc, single-run testing models are also available.

     

🆓 Free Plan Details

  • No Permanent Free Plan: Because of the heavy compute load and sensitive security nature of offensive exploit tools, Horizon3.ai does not offer a free tier. However, customized proof-of-concept demos can be scheduled directly with their technical team.
