Pentera has announced a strategic partnership with Recorded Future to combine AI-powered security validation with real-time threat intelligence. The integration enables organizations to automatically determine whether emerging cyber threats are exploitable within their own environments, helping security teams prioritize remediation and strengthen Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM) programs.
Security teams often rely on separate platforms for threat intelligence and security testing, creating operational silos that slow remediation efforts. Pentera's latest partnership with Recorded Future addresses this challenge by integrating real-time threat intelligence directly into automated security validation workflows.
The joint solution allows organizations to identify relevant cyber threats as they emerge and immediately validate whether those threats can be exploited within their own infrastructure.
The integration supports Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM) by connecting external threat intelligence with internal security control validation.
Recorded Future provides organizations with intelligence on active cyber threats, attack groups, campaigns, and emerging techniques. Pentera then automatically validates whether those threats present exploitable exposures within the enterprise and helps prioritize remediation activities.
This unified workflow enables security teams to:
Rather than relying solely on vulnerability lists or scheduled penetration testing, the integrated platform enables organizations to continuously validate defenses against attacker behavior observed in the wild.
The solution tailors testing based on factors such as:
This approach helps enterprises improve cyber resilience while focusing remediation efforts on exposures that present the greatest operational risk.
The partnership also supports evolving cybersecurity regulations that emphasize threat-informed testing and operational resilience.
According to the companies, the integration aligns with frameworks including:
These regulatory initiatives encourage organizations to validate cybersecurity defenses using realistic adversary behaviors rather than relying exclusively on traditional vulnerability management or periodic red team exercises.
"This partnership connects threat intelligence and security validation in a way the market has been missing," said Amitai Ratzon, CEO of Pentera. "Recorded Future customers already understand which threats are relevant to them. Pentera turns that intelligence into proactive security validation testing, including a fast cycle of surgical remediation steps, leading to measurable risk reduction."
"With Autonomous Threat Operations, Recorded Future is already pushing the boundaries of what's possible with threat intelligence," said Jamie Zajac, Chief Product Officer at Recorded Future. "This integration with Pentera unlocks the next level. Automated validation helps determine whether those threats are exploitable in a given environment. That's the future of operationalized intelligence."
Pentera and Recorded Future will demonstrate the integrated solution during their joint session, "Threat Intel Just Got Teeth: TLPT Goes Live," on August 6 at Black Hat 2026 in Las Vegas. The showcase will highlight how combining live threat intelligence with automated security validation enables organizations to continuously assess and strengthen their cybersecurity posture.
