Invicti Security — Cyborg Score 7/10

Strong
Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST)

Strategic Profile

Invicti's Proof-Based Scanning technology confirms vulnerabilities with 99.98% accuracy, giving teams the confidence to act without wasting time on false alarms. Recent launches in API Security and an AI-powered DAST platform, alongside an ASPM acquisition and a partnership to extend full-spectrum testing, indicate a broadening solution footprint, expanding coverage from core DAST into APIs and posture management.

Cyborg Score Rationale

Invicti has raised $665M in funding from Summit Partners and Turn/River Capital, indicating substantial capital backing. The company is frequently characterized as a leader in DAST-focused web and API security, with proof-based scanning and automation noted as core differentiators, positioned as a strong choice on capability fit. However, across the broader AST platform landscape, the company is described as a Challenger rather than a Leader, indicating relative disadvantage versus full-suite AST providers despite strength in DAST.
