Legit Security is an AI-native ASPM platform that provides end-to-end software supply chain protection.

The platform discovers and maps the entire software development lifecycle, continuously inventories assets and security controls, and surfaces risks for remediation across 120+ integrations.

Legit Security is recognized as a leader in application security posture management, serving Fortune 500 organizations that need visibility across complex development environments with hundreds of pipelines and thousands of developers.

The company has raised $70 million in funding to date.

What is Legit Security?

Legit addresses a gap that most security tools leave open: the space between code and production. Rather than focusing on a single testing technique, the platform maps the entire software delivery process and identifies risks at every stage.

Discover
Maps your entire SDLC automatically, inventorying code repositories, build pipelines, artifact registries, deployment targets, and the security controls protecting each stage.
Protect
Monitors CI/CD pipelines for misconfigurations, detects insecure setups, enforces hundreds of security policies, and prevents supply chain attacks at the pipeline level.
Remediate
AI agents suggest specific code fixes, create tickets with full context, and track remediation through to validation. Prioritization is based on business risk, not just severity scores.

The platform starts at the developer endpoint where AI code is generated and extends through to production, combining code-level analysis with workflow orchestration.

Key features

Code-to-cloud coverage

Legit provides visibility across the entire software delivery chain:

StageWhat Legit monitors
DevelopmentDeveloper tools, AI code assistants, IDE plugins
Source codeRepositories, branches, pull requests, code changes
BuildCI/CD pipelines, build configurations, artifact integrity
TestSecurity scanning results, policy compliance, quality gates
DeployDeployment targets, environment configurations, release gates
ProductionRuntime posture, drift detection, material changes

This coverage means security teams see what happens at every stage rather than just scanning code in isolation.

CI/CD pipeline security

Legit continuously monitors CI/CD pipelines to detect misconfigurations and insecure setups that could enable supply chain attacks:

  • Detects overprivileged service accounts and tokens
  • Identifies missing branch protection rules
  • Flags unsigned commits and artifacts
  • Monitors for dependency confusion risks
  • Alerts on pipeline injection vulnerabilities
Software supply chain focus
Legit treats the CI/CD pipeline as an attack surface, not just a deployment mechanism. Pipeline misconfigurations are a growing vector for supply chain attacks, and Legit monitors pipeline activity the same way traditional tools monitor code.

AI code security

As organizations adopt AI coding assistants, Legit provides guardrails:

  • Discovers which AI tools developers are using (Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Windsurf)
  • Identifies AI-generated code in pull requests
  • Enforces policies on AI code usage
  • Integrates via MCP server to bring ASPM context directly into AI-assisted development
  • Ensures AI-generated code goes through the same security testing as human-written code

Native scanning

Legit includes built-in scanning capabilities alongside its aggregation features:

Scan typeCoverage
SASTStatic analysis across major languages
SCAOpen source dependency vulnerability detection
SecretsAI-powered detection of credentials, API keys, tokens, and certificates across the SDLC

Organizations can use Legit’s native scanners, integrate existing third-party tools, or run both.

Risk scoring with business context

Legit’s AI-powered risk scoring goes beyond CVSS severity. The platform factors in application criticality, internet exposure, data sensitivity, compensating controls, and exploitability to produce risk scores that reflect actual business impact.

VibeGuard for AI-generated code

Legit launched VibeGuard in November 2025 (announced earlier in July 2025) as a discrete product for securing AI-written code at generation time, not after the fact. The premise is that scanning AI-generated code post-PR creates the same backlog AppSec teams already drown in โ€” VibeGuard pushes the security context back into the AI assistant before the code is written.

The product trains AI coding agents on organisation-specific security policies, threat models, and compliance requirements, then sits between the developer prompt and the AI assistant to inject that context. Supported assistants include Cursor, GitHub Copilot, and Windsurf โ€” the same three Legit lists in its AI code security feature row. Threats VibeGuard targets include AI-generated insecure cryptography, hardcoded secrets in AI suggestions, missing input validation in AI-written API handlers, and license-incompatible code copied from training data.

VibeGuard ships alongside the standard Legit Security ASPM platform; existing customers get it as part of the AppSec platform for AI-powered development positioning the vendor leans on in 2026.

Legit Security pricing

Legit Security does not publish list pricing on legitsecurity.com โ€” every commercial tier sits behind a “request a demo” or “contact sales” form, which is the standard pattern for enterprise ASPM. Plan on a custom annual contract sized by repository count, pipeline count, and named user count.

The platform is sold as an enterprise SaaS SKU with SSO (Okta, Azure AD), role-based access control, and audit trails included at no extra cost. VibeGuard is bundled with the core ASPM platform rather than sold as a separate add-on. Confirm tier shape with the vendor at evaluation; legitsecurity.com lists no public dollar amounts.

Legit Security vs alternatives

If Legit Security does not fit your stack, four ASPM platforms cover overlapping ground.

  • ArmorCode โ€” Better fit if you want pure aggregation across 320+ scanners with AI-powered prioritization rather than Legit’s native scanning bundled in.
  • OX Security โ€” Direct head-to-head competitor; Legit publishes its own Legit vs OX Security comparison page. OX leans into Active ASPM and PBOM-style supply chain context; Legit leans into AI-developed-code guardrails via VibeGuard.
  • Apiiro โ€” Better fit if you want a Gartner ASPM Magic Quadrant Leader with a Risk Graph and Guardian Agent for AI prompts. Apiiro is more mature on developer-side AI guardrails; Legit is stronger on full-SDLC inventory.
  • Cycode โ€” Better fit if you want native scanning plus supply chain depth (CI/CD security, source code leakage detection) over enterprise-SDLC-mapping.

For a wider sweep, the ASPM hub lists every active platform alongside Legit Security.

Legit Security FAQ

When was Legit Security founded? Legit Security was founded in 2020 in Israel by Roni Fuchs (CEO), Liav Caspi (CTO), and Lior Barak. The company has raised multiple rounds and closed a Series B in 2023.

What makes “AI-native ASPM” different from a regular ASPM? AI-native means the AI layer (risk scoring, triage, fix generation, VibeGuard) is woven into the platform rather than bolted on. Triage agents handle finding correlation and prioritisation automatically; fix agents propose code changes; VibeGuard pushes security context into the developer’s AI coding assistant before code is written.

What data leaves the organisation boundary? CI/CD telemetry (pipeline configs, build logs metadata), source-code metadata (commit graphs, ownership data, branch policies), secret detections, and finding output from connected scanners. Source code itself stays in your SCM unless you explicitly enable a feature that requires deeper analysis.

How does VibeGuard handle pre-production AI-generated code? It intercepts the prompt-to-AI-assistant call and injects security context โ€” threat models, organisation-specific policies, compliance constraints โ€” before the AI generates code. The result is that insecure patterns are blocked at prompt time rather than scanned out of a PR after the fact.

Who are Legit Security’s competitors? ArmorCode, OX Security, Apiiro, and Cycode share the most overlap; the alternatives section above covers each of them in detail.

Getting started

1
Connect your SDLC โ€” Link source code management, CI/CD pipelines, and cloud environments. Legit begins discovering and mapping your software delivery chain automatically.
2
Inventory and assess โ€” The platform catalogs all assets, security controls, and gaps across your development environment. Existing scanner results are ingested and correlated.
3
Enforce policies โ€” Configure security policies for pipeline configurations, code changes, and deployment gates. Legit enforces them automatically across the SDLC.
4
Prioritize and remediate โ€” AI-driven risk scoring surfaces the most impactful issues first. Remediation guidance, auto-generated tickets, and fix suggestions accelerate resolution.

When to use Legit Security

Legit Security fits organizations that need visibility and control across the entire software supply chain, not just code scanning. If your development environment spans hundreds of repositories, dozens of pipelines, and multiple cloud targets, Legit maps and secures that complexity.

Best for
Enterprises needing end-to-end SDLC visibility, CI/CD pipeline security, and software supply chain protection with native scanning capabilities and AI code guardrails.

If you need pure aggregation without native scanning, ArmorCode or OX Security focus on that model.

If pipeline security is less of a concern and you want lighter-weight ASPM, Aikido covers the basics at smaller scale.
