GitGuardian is an end-to-end NHI security platform that empowers software-driven organizations to enhance their Non-Human Identity (NHI) security and comply with industry standards. With attackers increasingly targeting NHIs, such as service accounts and applications, GitGuardian integrates Secrets Security and NHI Governance. This dual approach enables the detection of compromised secrets across your dev environments while also managing non human identities and their secrets lifecycle. The platform supports over 450+ types of secrets, offers public monitoring for leaked data, and deploys honeytokens for added defense. Trusted by over 600,000 developers, GitGuardian is the choice of leading organizations like Snowflake, ING, BASF and Bouygues Telecom for robust secrets protection.

SecPod Saner CVEM is a continuous vulnerability and exposure management platform designed to help organizations discover, prioritize, and remediate risks before attackers can exploit them. The platform unifies asset discovery, vulnerability detection, compliance management, endpoint management, posture anomaly detection, patch management, exposure visibility, and risk prioritization in one workflow. Saner CVEM uses AI-powered asset visibility, machine-learning anomaly detection, and intelligent prioritization to identify both known vulnerabilities and exposure gaps that traditional scanners may miss. It evaluates risk using factors such as EPSS, CISA KEV status, SSVC, asset criticality, business context, MITRE ATT&CK mapping, and CWE mapping. The platform also supports integrated patch deployment, posture improvement, compliance automation, and continuous scanning across Windows, Linux, macOS, AIX, servers, endpoints, and third-party applications.

HCL AppScan is a unified application security platform that automates vulnerability detection, testing, triage, and remediation across code, applications, APIs, and LLMs. It combines DAST, SAST, IAST, SCA, API, IaC, and Secrets capabilities with centralized risk visibility, reporting, and compliance. Integrated with IDEs and DevOps workflows, AppScan uses AI-assisted analysis and agentic fix recommendations to help teams prioritize risks, accelerate remediation, strengthen AI code security, and build verifiable trust into every release.

ActiveState provides software development teams with the world's most comprehensive library of secure and trusted open source, over 79 million vetted components across all major language ecosystems (e.g., Java, Javascript, Python, R, Go, etc.), including transitive dependencies and OS-level libraries. By building everything from source, we ensure that every component is what it says it is, contains the fewest amount of vulnerabilities, and is continuously remediated. Companies can consume this open source where and when they need it - through their existing artifact repositories, as container images or managed distributions, or via IDPs. When teams transfer their open source responsibility to ActiveState, developers and security teams break free from the endless cycle of vulnerability management. Developers gain confidence knowing their code will make it to production faster and with less friction. Security gains assurance that policy and compliance standards are met by default.
