Shinobi launches world’s first AI-powered pentester that secures mobile applications
Shinobi’s AI pentests mobile apps with the same precision as humans – only faster and continuously
Wilmington, Delaware – October 15th 2025: AI-powered cybersecurity firm Shinobi has today announced a major expansion of its platform – the ability to penetration test mobile applications with the same skill, reasoning, and precision as human experts, but delivered continuously and at machine speed.
With phones having become vaults for employees’ digital lives, holding money, messages, health data, and work communications, attackers are increasingly targeting mobile apps.
But traditional mobile app pentesting has long been manual, slow, and expensive, providing only a snapshot in time while new vulnerabilities emerge with every update.
Shinobi changes that, with its AI pentesters that understand, analyze, and exploit mobile apps the way elite human teams do – inspecting code, mapping APIs, and uncovering real attack paths. But unlike human-led tests, Shinobi runs autonomously, continuously, and in hours instead of weeks, keeping security aligned with every release.
With this update, Shinobi enables organizations to:
- Continuously test mobile apps at the speed of development
- Detect real, exploitable vulnerabilities – including complex business logic flaws
- Reduce testing time and cost by up to 90%
“Mobile apps are so essential to everything that we do. As a result, they have become vaults for our entire lives which means they become the front line of business risk,” said Varun Uppal, Founder and CEO of Shinobi. “Attackers are already using AI, and Shinobi helps defenders fight back, faster.”
