CISO Playbook: Implementing Agentic AI Pentesting While Managing Risk and Cost

Agentic AI is beginning to change how penetration testing is conducted. It can improve testing speed, depth, and coverage, but it also introduces new questions around safety, control, governance, and cost.

• What agentic AI is and how it differs from traditional security automation
• How to evaluate Agentic AI platforms, capabilities and vendors
• How to implement AI pentest agents within an enterprise environment
• Key risks, including excessive permissions, unintended actions, data exposure and lack of oversight
• Safety guardrails, governance and human-in-the-loop controls
• Managing token usage, infrastructure costs and overall ROI

This will be an interactive peer discussion rather than a product presentation. The objective is to capture practical inputs from the group and develop a useful playbook for CISOs evaluating or implementing AI-driven penetration testing.
