They Attack in Seconds. You Still Test Once a Year.

Clone your production. Unleash AI security tools. Find every weakness before attackers do.

AI Attacks Move at Machine Speed

If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles — Sun Tzu, The Art of War

AI attacker speed versus clone-based testing speed comparison

The Problem

AI-powered attackers breach systems in minutes. Autonomous agents operate 80-90% autonomously, making thousands of requests per second. Time-to-exploit for new vulnerabilities collapsed from 32 days to just 5 days. Human security teams cannot keep pace with machine-speed reconnaissance, exploitation, and lateral movement.

  • AI agents breach organizations 80-90% autonomously with minimal human direction
  • Security researchers recorded a breakout time of 51 seconds from initial access to lateral movement
  • Time-to-exploit for new vulnerabilities collapsed from 32 days to 5 days
  • Ninety-seven percent of organizations are considering AI-powered penetration testing
  • AI makes thousands of reconnaissance requests per second dwarfing human speed

In November 2025, a major AI company disclosed that state-sponsored hackers weaponized an AI assistant to attack approximately 30 organizations, successfully breaching 4. The AI operated 80-90% autonomously with roughly 20 minutes of human oversight. [1] [2] Separately, an open-source AI offensive framework weaponized critical zero-day vulnerabilities in a widely-used network appliance in under 10 minutes of public disclosure. [3] [4]

Match Machine Speed with Clone-Based Testing

Clone production in seconds with zero-copy. Run AI offensive tools on isolated clones at full machine speed. Ephemeral environments auto-destroy after each test cycle, leaving no persistent attack surface.

  • Zero-copy cloning creates production-faithful test targets in seconds
  • Run AI offensive tools at full speed on isolated clones safely
  • Ephemeral environments auto-cleanup after each security test cycle
  • Test against real production data and configurations not stale copies
  • Multi-cloud portability lets you test across different infrastructure targets

Security Testing Crashes Production

First, do no harm — Hippocratic tradition (primum non nocere)

Production crashing from security testing versus safe clone-based testing

The Problem

Security scanners and penetration tests crash production systems. Vulnerability scanners crash network equipment, kill services, and trigger cascading failures. The worst IT disaster of 2024 was caused by a security vendor's own update. Organizations face an impossible choice: test aggressively and risk outages, or test cautiously and miss vulnerabilities.

  • A leading security vendor update crashed 8.5 million devices in a single day
  • Thirty percent of CISOs report fear of outages from their own security testing
  • Vulnerability scanners crash core network switches and virtualization hosts
  • Security tools cause the exact downtime they are supposed to prevent
  • Organizations limit testing scope because production cannot tolerate the risk

On July 19, 2024, a leading cybersecurity vendor pushed a faulty sensor update to production systems worldwide. 8.5 million devices crashed simultaneously, causing over $10 billion in global damage. [1] [2] One major airline alone lost $500 million and cancelled 7,000 flights. [3] Meanwhile, a 2025 survey found 30% of security leaders fear outages from their own security testing. [4]

Test on Clones, Protect Production

Create atomic, production-faithful clones via zero-copy technology. Attack the clone with maximum aggression—if it crashes, good, you found a weakness. Point-in-time snapshots reset the clone instantly for retesting.

  • Production-faithful clones replicate real infrastructure without touching production
  • Atomic replication ensures clones match production state exactly at test time
  • Point-in-time snapshots let you reset and retest instantly after destructive tests
  • Zero-knowledge encryption protects cloned data during security testing
  • Run the most aggressive scanners and exploits without any production risk

Annual Testing Is a Compliance Illusion

Verily, Allah will not change the condition of a people until they change what is in themselves — Ar-Ra'd 13:11

Annual pentest gap versus continuous clone-based testing timeline

The Problem

Organizations penetration test once or twice a year for compliance. They pass, get certified, then get breached weeks later. The certification proves one day's security posture. Attackers exploit the other 364 days when nobody is testing.

  • Thirty-two percent of companies perform penetration testing only once per year
  • A major retailer was PCI certified two months before 110 million records were stolen
  • A payment processor was PCI certified two weeks before 100 million cards were compromised
  • One hundred percent of breached PCI-certified companies failed compliance at time of breach
  • Compliance certifies a point in time while attackers exploit every other day

A major US retailer was PCI DSS certified in September 2013 and breached just two months later—110 million customer records stolen, $248 million in costs. [1] [2] A leading payment processor was PCI certified just two weeks before a breach exposed 100 million payment cards, costing $200 million. [3] Independent forensic research found that 100% of PCI-certified companies that suffered breaches had fallen out of compliance by the actual time of the breach. [4]

Continuous Testing on Ephemeral Clones

Clone production on schedule—daily, hourly, or per-deploy. Run AI penetration tests on the clone. Destroy. Repeat. Zero-copy means each clone is free until changes are written.

  • On-demand cloning enables daily or hourly security testing cycles
  • Ephemeral environments auto-destroy after testing eliminating persistent attack surface
  • Zero-copy technology makes each clone free until changes are written
  • Per-repository encryption ensures test data stays protected throughout the cycle
  • CI/CD integration triggers security clone-and-test on every deployment automatically
