Apiiro Guardian Agent
ASPM and software supply chain security for code written by developers and AI coding agents.
Apiiro Guardian Agent Overview
What it does
Apiiro Guardian Agent is an Application Security Posture Management (ASPM) and Software Supply Chain Security (SSCS) platform that secures software written by developers and AI coding agents. It runs on the Apiiro Data Fabric, which uses patented Deep Code Analysis and code-to-runtime matching to maintain a continuously updated Software Graph and Risk Graph of each application, turning posture findings into agentic actions across discovery, assessment, prevention, detection, management, and automated remediation.
How it works
The platform connects through APIs to source control, CI/CD pipelines, ticketing, and more than 100 third-party security and development tools, then correlates and deduplicates their findings against the Software Graph to surface toxic combinations and prioritize by reachability, internet exposure, and business impact. Extended bill of materials inventories cover open-source dependencies, APIs, AI models, Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers, cryptography, and pipelines. Guardrails comment on or block risky commits and pull requests, enrich coding-agent prompts with security context before code is generated, and AutoFix produces context-aware remediations routed to code owners. Customers include Shell, Cloudera, SoFi, and Paddle.
Credentials and traction
SOC 2 attested and ISO/IEC 27001 certified, with reports available through the company trust center. Apiiro was named a Leader in the 2026 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Software Supply Chain Security, ranked first in the Application Security Posture Management (ASPM) use case of the 2025 Gartner Critical Capabilities for Application Security Testing, and named a Leader in the 2025 IDC MarketScape for worldwide ASPM. Fortune 500 customers include BlackRock, Walmart, CVS, USAA, Tesco, and Prudential.
Key Capabilities
mapped to solution categoriesClassifies aggregated findings with an AI model as real vulnerability, likely false positive, or needs review, and assigns a remediation urgency, so the priority queue is filtered by verdict rather than by tool severity alone.
Groups findings from multiple tools that refer to the same underlying vulnerability in the same code location, presenting one actionable finding instead of multiple redundant alerts.
Pushes prioritized findings to developer ticketing (Jira, GitHub Issues, Linear), and IDEs with remediation context, removing the security team from the routing path.
Scores aggregated findings using multiple contextual factors (exploitability, reachability, internet exposure, threat intelligence, and business criticality) rather than individual tool severity ratings, producing a single actionable priority queue across all AppSec signals.
Integrates and triggers AppSec scanners across the pipeline, controlling which tests run at each stage (pull request, build, release) according to organizational policy rather than leaving each tool to run on its own schedule.
Maintains a registry of all applications in scope, their associated scan coverage, and their AppSec tool assignments, surfaces applications with no active scanning.
Scores dependency vulnerabilities by whether the vulnerable function is reachable in the actual application execution path, not just present in the dependency tree, reducing the actionable finding list to confirmed code-level exposures.
Maps aggregated AppSec findings and scan coverage to regulatory and framework controls (PCI DSS Requirement 6, ISO 27001 Annex A.8.28, SOC 2), and generates audit-ready evidence and compliance reports across the application portfolio.
Links each finding to the specific code, component, or pipeline that introduced it and traces it from source through build to the deployed runtime, so teams can fix the underlying cause and see which projects contribute the most risk.
Acts as the application security control plane: evaluates all applications against organization-wide policies, risk thresholds and remediation expectations, then automates enforcement through build gates, release blocks and escalation rather than only flagging non-compliant applications.
Ingests, deduplicates and normalizes signals from security tools across DevSecOps pipelines and runtime environments (SAST, DAST, SCA, container scanning, secrets scanning, runtime and cloud telemetry) into a single finding model with a consistent severity scale across sources.
Governs third-party software consumption to apply consistent software supply chain security policy.
Detection and provenance tracking of AI and ML components, models, and LLM usage within the software supply chain.
Risk context for open-source dependencies including reachability, exploitability, and upgrade impact.
Assessment and policy enforcement of CI/CD pipeline configuration, access, and integrity.
Compiles vendor, third-party and open-source maintainer reputation to flag risk from unmaintained, deprecated or abandoned software.
Assessment of developer and machine identity access and permissions across source control and pipelines.
Live visibility into code, components, pipelines, and developer activity across the software development lifecycle.
