All-in-one AppSec platform that finds and auto-fixes vulnerabilities
SCA dependency scanning, SAST, AI code audit, secrets detection, license/SBOM generation, malware detection, and code quality in one pipeline.
AI filters false positives and generates fixes or pull requests, cutting triage time and shortening the path from finding to resolution.
CSPM for misconfigurations, IaC scanning, Kubernetes and container image scanning, VM insights, DSPM, and cloud attack-path mapping.
Continuous web/API testing, DAST, attack-surface mapping, and autonomous pentest agents that keep validating what is actually exploitable.
A spec-driven AI IDE and agent platform that plans, builds, reviews, and verifies real engineering work.
You describe intent and context first; Kiro captures requirements and design as specifications, then verifies the finished implementation against them.
Kiro Crew watches your backlog, codebase, or CI, triages new work, delegates to specialized bots, and returns results for your review.
Long tasks split into checked steps so agents cannot shortcut a failed test, and review agents inspect diffs before a human approves a merge.
Use the IDE, mobile, or web, run headless in CI/CD with the CLI, or trigger Kiro from Slack, Microsoft Teams, GitHub, and GitLab.
