Summary
Xbow explains how AI-assisted threat hunting correlates signals faster but cannot show which weaknesses attackers could actually exploit; autonomous pentesting complements it by validating exploitable paths, feeding better hunt hypotheses, detection engineering and remediation priorities.
Why it matters
This coverage gives security teams current context for monitoring, validation, and remediation.
