ImmuniWeb Receives “AI-Enabled Penetration Testing” Accreditation by CREST

ImmuniWeb is among the first 10 companies in the world to receive the brand-new accreditation by CREST after a thorough verification and assessment of our AI technology, people and processes.

ImmuniWeb has been pioneering with our award-winning AI-enabled penetration testing technology since 2019, with almost 100 international awards and recognition for our technological achievements and value creation for the customers and partners from over 70 countries.

Having been a CREST-accredited provider of penetration testing services since our incorporation, today, ImmuniWeb is also accredited for provision of “AI-enabled penetration testing” on the international market by CREST.

The accreditation, which was launched by CREST in July 2026, assesses providers of cybersecurity services against independent requirements for responsible, secure, and appropriate use of AI within the provision of penetration testing services.

Dr. Ilia Kolochenko, Chief Architect & CEO at ImmuniWeb, says: “While we have been successfully using our proprietary AI models to intelligently automate and accelerate penetration testing for over eight years, we are delighted to be among the first companies that are accredited to provide AI-enabled penetration testing in a regulated, compliant and safe manner.

While many vendors erroneously claim that AI can replace human penetration testing, even the frontier LLMs are still technically and operationally far from fully replacing skilled cybersecurity professionals. At ImmuniWeb, we continue relying on human experts for advanced security testing and the supervision of our AI technologies to attain the best possible results for the most competitive price. We firmly believe that the human element of penetration testing will remain among the key ingredients for high quality, predictability and reliability of the service that is now required by virtually all data protection laws and regulations in all countries.

Having said this, with the rapid advancement of both AI technology and hardware capabilities, we successfully automate more and more penetration testing tasks and processes, making our value-for-money proposal unbeatable on the global market, ensuring safety, quality and compliance in parallel.

The new accreditation is an important milestone for our company and a solid recognition of our leadership in the industry. The amazing ImmuniWeb Team deserves all the credit for our continuous innovation and unstoppable success. More exciting news and announcements are coming soon, please stay tuned.”
