What is Aikido?
Aikido Security operates as a unified application security (AppSec) platform designed to streamline the complex process of vulnerability management. By leveraging advanced automation and artificial intelligence, the platform automatically detects, prioritizes, and facilitates the remediation of security flaws across codebases, cloud infrastructure, dependencies, and runtime environments. This holistic approach effectively reduces security noise, allowing engineering teams to focus on high-impact threats rather than false positives. In an era where software supply chain security is paramount, Aikido provides a centralized dashboard that enhances visibility and compliance, effectively bridging the gap between security operations and developer productivity.
