Many of the GitHub LLM pentesting frameworks start by firing off tools like Nmap, Nuclei, httpx, and ffuf.

None of these are particularly quiet, especially at scale. For internet facing assets, existing controls like WAFs, IPS, and rate limiting can still detect and block much of this activity.

Over time, organizations largely accepted a certain level of internet scanning as background noise. Since their custom web applications weren’t necessarily being actively targeted, many stopped putting much effort into detecting and blocking this activity.
