What is Bright Security?
Bright Security is at the forefront of enhancing application security through its AI-powered Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) and Fuzzer solutions. Designed for modern development environments, the company's offerings aim to deliver security at a reduced cost with a zero-false positive rate.

This allows for the identification of a wide array of known vulnerabilities (over 7,000 payloads) and unknown zero-day threats across web, mobile, and API protocols. The platform provides actionable remediation guidelines for every identified vulnerability, facilitating compliance on every build and empowering developers to secure applications proactively.
