Legacy AppSec tools aren't built for developers
or cloud-native speed

Cloud-native engineering ecosystems are disparate and diverse — making it difficult to know where the risks are

Siloed AppSec data makes it impossible to effectively prioritize and remediate risk

Overly restrictive security slows development, while overly lenient controls put organizations at risk

SOLUTION

Designed for cloud-native environments,
tailored for every AppSec need

Unify Application Security

Centralize visibility with Application Security Posture Management (ASPM), integrating leading AppSec tools and third-party scanners to ensure consistent security across the application lifecycle.

Accelerate Secure Applications Development

Prevent risk from reaching production with agile security guardrails that empower developers to apply best practices seamlessly in their native tools — ensuring security without slowing development.

Prioritize Risks with AI-Driven, Context-Aware Insights

Combine code, pipeline, runtime and application context to manage risks based on probability of exploitation and potential business impact.

Start left and enforce consistent security across the application lifecycle

Application Security Posture Management
Consolidate AppSec visibility into a single risk, policy and automation engine, making it easier to prioritize risk and apply context-aware security policies across the entire application lifecycle.
Software Supply Chain Security
Gain deep visibility and control over your engineering ecosystem, govern pipeline tool usage and risk, manage SBOMs and ensure secure deployments.
Infrastructure as Code (IaC) Security
Comprehensive, developer-first Infrastructure as Code Security with runtime tracing to fix misconfigurations at the source.
Software Composition Analysis
Proactively address open-source vulnerabilities and license compliance issues with developer integrations and context-aware prioritization.
Secrets Security
Comprehensive secrets security to accurately detect, prioritize and eliminate credential exposure.
Third-Party Ingestion
Connect any AppSec tool for centralized visibility and prioritize risk based on comprehensive runtime and application context.
