Hackian

Spectrum 0.2 beta · Public tier · read 2026-11-10 · not reviewed by its vendor yet

AI agent that runs reconnaissance, exploits vulnerabilities with non-destructive routines and reports findings with proof of exploitation; used in Continuous Adversarial Exposure Validation and in Agentic Pentests (Swift, Depth).

What each level rests on

This card rates a product as its vendor documents it, not anyone's deployment of it. A feature the operator has to turn on counts, and is marked as available. Levels are computed from the evidence below by published rules. A dimension with no evidence reads "not yet evidenced".

Autonomy: not yet evidenced

What does the agent do on its own? Nothing public was found that meets a rule in this dimension. That is not a no.

Next unlock: level 3, Acts. Public evidence that the agent handles routine tasks; the person is consulted on exceptions.

Reach: level 2, Integrated

How connected is it? Documented connectors to common tools.

• I10 It works across several domains or systems. In continuous mode Hackian works across the whole in-scope attack surface, not one system. "Hackian continuously analyzes your entire attack surface in breadth" Source (read, documented, captured 2026-11-10T19:44Z, sha256 ee80814e6e113dc5) · π Moderate · S1·R5·A1 ×3
• I11 It connects to external tools or services across a trust boundary. With a Beacon deployed by the customer, Hackian reaches into the customer's internal networks over a tunnel. "securely extends the Ethiack Hackian Engine testing capabilities into your internal networks" Source (read, documented, available, captured 2026-11-10T19:44Z, sha256 84c79566bf725c01) · π Moderate · S1·R5·A1 ×3

This evidence touches 8 provisions: Salesforce, Microsoft, OWASP, NIST AI RMF.

Next unlock: level 4, Ecosystem. Public evidence that agents operate across organisational boundaries or disparate stacks; and that others build on it: third parties publish integrations, skills or agents for it.

Control: level 1, Stated

Can people stay in command? Documents say how people approve, override or stop it.

• I47 A limit on it is a rule in prose. The customer writes guardrails in the test policy, in prose, stating what the agent must not do. "Guardrails define what the agent must not do." Source (read, documented, captured 2026-11-10T19:44Z, sha256 544cfd92b23d9220) · π Moderate · S1·R5·A1 ×3

This evidence touches 1 provision: OWASP.

Next unlock: level 2, Configurable. Public evidence that high-impact actions need a person's approval; and that what it can reach is enumerated: scopes, permissions, tools.

Openness: level 1, Disclosed

Does it show its work? Says what it is for, and that it is AI, what its limits are or what data it uses.

• I20 Its purpose and permitted tasks are stated in writing. The documentation states what an Agentic Pentest by Hackian is for. "Hackian performs a focused, in-depth analysis of a defined set of assets" Source (read, documented, captured 2026-11-10T19:44Z, sha256 fcb64787931f25ed) · π Moderate · S1·R5·A1 ×3
• I22 Its limits and known failure cases are documented for those who use it. The documentation states a scope limit: test types Hackian does not handle on its own, such as mobile applications, go to human testers. "technologies and test types that Hackian does not currently handle on its own" Source (read, documented, captured 2026-11-10T19:44Z, sha256 73a997c1b8b3e142) · π Moderate · S1·R5·A1 ×3

This evidence touches 7 provisions: NIST AI RMF, EU AI Act.

Also evidenced: the rule for level 3. It will count when the level before it is.

Next unlock: level 2, Documented. Public evidence that the data it uses is described.

How far to trust this card

Status: Draft. Draft means the facts were found in public pages and reviewed by agents. The company has not confirmed them and no customer has gone on record. FACT-Ray says how far each fact can be trusted: who says it (Source), how firmly it is recorded (Record) and who stands behind it (Accountability). It never changes a level.

• The facts: 12 facts: 12 π Moderate. Each is written beside its evidence above.
• The chain: found by an agent, captured and hashed, checked by 2 other agents (same model family, shared repository); no human has signed it.
• Who: produced by gamma.studio@web-summit.dinis; checked by gamma.review@web-summit.dinis and gamma.approve@web-summit.dinis. The actors.
• What would raise it: the company's own file at /.well-known/fact-ray.json (Source 2), a customer's statement of use (Source 3), or a named person signing the card (how).

The standards constellation

One piece of public evidence can speak to several frameworks at once. "Touched" never means "complies". The share is of the provisions that can be read from outside.

The 42 provisions lit

Each line item, with the facts that reach it. "Evidenced" is a link of the kind same: the fact is what the provision asks. "Partly" is a link of the kind part: the fact is one piece of it. "Its absence" points the other way. Each provision has its own page with its text and its place in the source.

Upper layers

The public card is the front door. The same evidence, read with the governance rules, is this agent's GAMMA-Ray rating: freedom, governance, the level held, the grant and a work order. That layer is written for an operator.

The vault

Every source behind this card was captured and hashed into a public sgit vault (1livflie): captures.json lists each URL with the SHA-256 of what was fetched and when. Read key:
