Through a new partnership with VulnCheck, Cogent Community helps security teams take action on vulnerability intelligence with an innovative, agentic AI tool

Cogent Security, pioneer of the world’s first AI taskforce for vulnerability management, today introduced Cogent Community, a free AI-powered tool that helps security practitioners operationalize threat intelligence. Cogent Community combines VulnCheck’s industry-leading vulnerability intelligence with Cogent’s advanced, domain-trained AI agents. In seconds, security teams can gain access to fast and in-depth vulnerability research, plain-language explanations to inquiries, and credible remediation guidance. This enables practitioners to take action on threat intelligence faster than ever to stay ahead of emerging exploits and defend against AI-powered adversaries.

Key features of Cogent Community include:

• Discover feed: A customizable, real-time feed for vulnerability and exploit intelligence showing breaking disclosures, trending activity, and the topics a user follows.
• AI research assistant: Natural-language deep-dives on CVEs and exploits with cited sources and a clear explanation of impact.
• Community agent: Precise mitigation and remediation recommendations refined with asset, owner, and business context inputs.

According to Gourav Nagar, head of information security at Upwind Security, “Cogent’s platform transforms vulnerability management programs, letting them operate with higher efficiency and lower risk exposure. Offering Cogent Community for free is a major win for the entire security industry.”

Security Teams Are Overloaded With Vulnerability Signals and New Threats

Security practitioners today are overwhelmed by a fragmented threat intelligence ecosystem that includes sources like vendor advisories, vulnerability records, exploit releases, threat researcher findings, and more. Teams spend countless hours validating sources, removing duplicates, and confirming whether issues are exploited in the wild. Then, they must translate each signal to their own environment, including which assets are affected, who owns them, what can be mitigated now, and when changes can land. The result is slow triage, inconsistent decisions, and longer windows of exposure.

Meanwhile, security teams face additional pressure from new AI-powered threats. Adversaries are using AI to generate code that expands the attack surface, LLMs are accelerating the weaponization of CVEs, and vulnerability exploitation is now the fastest-growing cause of breaches. These new attack methods now make AI a requirement for defenders to keep up.

Creating a Powerful Community Resource With VulnCheck and Cogent

Cogent Community is made possible through a unique partnership between VulnCheck and Cogent Security. VulnCheck contributes the premier, evidence-backed view of what is being exploited and why it matters. Cogent then layers on its domain-trained, agentic AI, giving teams a new way to answer questions, compare sources, and translate findings into options that are best suited for each environment. Together, the partnership turns trusted facts into accountable action in a way that creates a new standard for the security community.

“The goal of Cogent Community was simple: to give security practitioners a free tool to stay ahead of threats,” said Vineet Edupuganti, co-founder and CEO of Cogent Security. “Over the last decade, threat intelligence has advanced tremendously, to the point where security teams can no longer stay on top of the vulnerability and exploit data that’s at their fingertips. Cogent Community puts specialized agents in the hands of every practitioner to cut through the noise, make sense of their intelligence, and remediate faster to defend against AI-powered threats.”
