Checkmarx + Equixly

Continuous Penetration Testing for Modern Applications

Modern Applications and the Risk Beyond Code

APIs and complex application workflows form the backbone of today’s digital infrastructure. While static code analysis and software composition tools can detect vulnerabilities in source code or dependencies, they often miss the risks that only emerge in live environments, particularly how APIs handle authentication, authorization, and business logic orchestration.

Additionally, traditional penetration tests, performed periodically, leave blind spots between engagements. Exploitable paths may go unnoticed until a real adversary discovers them, creating both operational and reputational risk. Security teams need a solution that not only identifies code-level flaws but also validates how systems behave under attack in real-world scenarios.

Continuous, AI-Driven Offensive Security

Equixly and Checkmarx have partnered to bring autonomous, continuous penetration testing directly into your Checkmarx environment. This integration combines Checkmarx’s industry-leading code analysis with Equixly’s agentic AI hacker, enabling security teams to simulate real-world attacks on APIs and application workflows continuously.

By merging code-level intelligence with AI-driven offensive testing, organizations gain a complete view of exploitable risk. Security teams can uncover complex, multi-step vulnerabilities and business logic weaknesses, while correlating findings across development and production environments. This ensures that vulnerabilities are not just detected, they are validated, prioritized, and actionable.

Why Equixly + Checkmarx?

Together, Equixly and Checkmarx give organizations the tools to stay ahead of modern attackers. By combining continuous AI-driven penetration testing with deep code analysis, customers can:

  • sitemap
    Earlier detection

    Identify exploitable API and business logic vulnerabilities earlier in the development lifecycle.

  • waiting
    Always-on testing

    Reduce reliance on periodic, point-in-time penetration tests.

  • cloud
    Unified visibility

    Gain centralized visibility into risk across distributed, API-driven environments.

  • settings
    Faster remediation

    Prioritize and remediate issues faster with high-confidence, exploit-backed findings.

  • diamond
    Stronger programs

    Strengthen overall application security programs with continuous offensive validation.

This partnership represents a new standard for proactive, offensive application security, allowing security teams to defend against the threats that matter most, continuously and autonomously.
