Key Features:
- Problem: We believe developers have grown increasingly resistant to cybersecurity in the SDLC because it’s often 1) an inefficient process that hinders their velocity, and 2) a frustrating experience that casts them as the "bad guys." Most existing code security solutions reinforce this dynamic by empowering security teams to play the role of "code cops," catching developers red-handed after they’ve committed their code.
- Our Approach: We’re taking a different approach: a coach-minded solution that empowers developers to deliver secure code from the outset - before it triggers anyone else’s alerts and boomerangs back as extra work. Rather than casting developers as security delinquents, we’re helping them become security maestros. In short, we’re turning security into a positive experience for developers.
- Our Product: Our product is an IDE plugin that detects and fixes vulnerabilities in real time, as code is being written. It also delivers just-in-time learning, training developers precisely when and where they need it. Philosophically, it’s the quintessential Shift-Left, train-on-the-job solution.
