AI Red Team & Automated Pentesting

RedLens

Think like an attacker.

Overview

Web-based automated red team security: RedLens scans your applications, discovers vulnerabilities, validates exploit chains, and ships pentest-grade reports — with AI reasoning, MCP/CLI integrations, and detection-only probes.

RedLens is an AI-powered red team security scanner built for the web. You register a domain, verify ownership with a simple meta tag, and run full-surface scans from RedLens servers — nothing executes on your infrastructure beyond what a careful external tester would do. Seventeen security modules run in parallel across headers, TLS, authentication, APIs, cloud misconfiguration, input validation, cryptography, dependencies, DNS, email policy (SPF/DKIM/DMARC), sensitive file exposure, technology fingerprinting, and more — typically in about two minutes for reconnaissance. An AI reasoning engine reads the collected evidence, forms hypotheses like a human pentester, runs targeted probes, and connects confirmed issues into validated multi-step exploit chains so you see real impact, not theoretical noise. Reports include severity, CWE context, evidence, affected URLs, and AI-generated remediation snippets you can adapt into your codebase. RedLens also meets developers where they work: a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for local IDEs and CLIs (`npx @redlens/mcp-server`) plus remote MCP for web-based AI assistants, so scanning and fix guidance can live inside Cursor, Claude Code, ChatGPT, and similar workflows. Scans are rate-limited, logged, and designed to be non-destructive — detection-oriented payloads without destructive exploitation — with a free tier to get started without a credit card.

01

Deep Attack Surface Scanning

Automated analysis across seventeen coordinated modules — security headers, TLS, authentication flows, APIs, CORS, cloud configuration drift, input validation, cryptography, dependency risks, sensitive file exposure, DNS reconnaissance, email authentication (SPF/DKIM/DMARC), admin endpoint discovery, information disclosure, technology fingerprinting, HTTPS enforcement, and row-level security testing — so one run mirrors the breadth a red team would cover manually.

02

AI-Powered Reasoning Engine

Instead of dumping raw findings, RedLens synthesizes evidence the way an experienced tester would: hypothesizing likely weaknesses, validating them with targeted probes, and explaining why each issue matters in the context of your app.

03

Validated Exploit Chains

Confirmed vulnerabilities are stitched into realistic escalation stories with safe, detection-oriented validation — showing how an attacker could chain smaller issues into meaningful impact rather than leaving you with disconnected alerts.

04

Deep Reconnaissance

RedLens inspects what is publicly reachable: JavaScript bundles, authentication patterns, shadow APIs, and environmental clues that traditional scanners often skip — all while keeping workloads on RedLens-controlled infrastructure.

05

Self-Improving Detection

The platform is built to expand coverage as new attack patterns emerge, rolling forward-looking detection modules without waiting for a monolithic scanner release cycle.

06

Pentest-Grade Reports & Fixes

Deliverables read like consultant output: severity, CWE references, concrete evidence, affected URLs, and AI-authored remediation snippets you can adapt directly in your editor.

MCP & CLI Integrations

Install the local MCP server with `npx @redlens/mcp-server` for IDE and terminal workflows, or attach remote MCP inside hosted AI chats. Documentation and remote endpoints are published alongside the web app so security checks stay inside the tools engineers already use.

08

Safe-by-Design Operations

Scans emphasize non-destructive probes, rate limits, logging, and cleanup guarantees so production-adjacent testing stays predictable for operators who cannot afford noisy or invasive tooling.

Why RedLens

Built to solve a real problem.

The Problem

Modern attack surfaces sprawl across edge configuration, client-side bundles, APIs, identity flows, and third-party dependencies — yet most automated scanners still behave like glorified checklists. They flood teams with theoretical findings, struggle to narrate multi-step attacker paths, and rarely meet developers inside the editors where fixes actually happen. Manual pentests close the gap but cannot run continuously, leaving long blind spots between engagements.

The Solution

RedLens unifies high-coverage reconnaissance, AI-driven reasoning, and chain validation in a web-first product hosted at redlens.langelogic.com. Security and platform teams get continuous, pentester-style narratives without self-hosting scanners, while engineers adopt the same workflows through MCP-aware assistants. The result is faster evidence, clearer exploit stories, and remediation guidance that maps to how modern cloud and SPA systems are built.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

RedLens pairs broad automated reconnaissance with an AI reasoning layer that behaves more like a pentester than a checklist. It connects validated findings into exploit chains, explains impact in context, and ships remediation snippets — not just isolated alerts.

You add a domain, verify ownership with a meta tag, and RedLens runs recon from its own infrastructure. Roughly two minutes of module collection is followed by AI analysis, chain building, and prioritized remediation guidance — all without installing an agent on your servers.

Each scan exercises seventeen coordinated modules spanning headers, TLS, authentication, APIs, CORS, cloud misconfiguration, sensitive files, dependencies, cryptography, email authentication records, DNS reconnaissance, admin discovery, information disclosure, fingerprinting, HTTPS policy, row-level security testing, and related edge cases surfaced during analysis.

No. RedLens emphasizes detection-only payloads, rate limiting, logging, and cleanup so production systems see the same class of traffic they would from a careful external assessment — not exploit development against live data stores.

Install the published MCP package locally with `npx @redlens/mcp-server` to drive scans from Cursor, Claude Code, JetBrains, Windsurf, Gemini CLI, and other MCP-capable tools. Remote MCP is also available for hosted AI chats; see the RedLens documentation for the latest remote endpoint (for example https://redlens.nurallabs.com/mcp).

RedLens is a web application. Visit https://redlens.langelogic.com to sign up, manage domains, launch scans, and read reports. There are no iOS or Android apps — mobile browsers work for monitoring, but the product is intentionally web-first.

Yes. The public site advertises a free tier that includes the full seventeen-module reconnaissance experience so teams can evaluate coverage before upgrading.

Application security engineers, platform teams, and developers who need continuous external visibility into internet-facing properties — especially when they want AI-assisted narratives, exploit chain validation, and editor-native workflows without standing up their own scanner farm.
