Asterisk is an AI-driven platform that automates the detection, verification, and patching of security vulnerabilities within codebases, effectively emulating the approach of a human security engineer. It excels in identifying complex business logic errors through context-aware scanning and provides comprehensive reports with near-zero false positives. Key features include automated patch generation, continuous real-time monitoring, and extensive support for major programming languages and frameworks. Asterisk's process involves indexing the codebase to create accurate call stack and code graph mappings, enabling precise vulnerability detection. The platform has demonstrated its efficacy by autonomously discovering vulnerabilities in systems. Founded by a team of seasoned security researchers and competitive CTF players, Asterisk is committed to leveraging AI to streamline code security audits and enhance vulnerability discovery.

CodeMender is an AI-powered agent developed by DeepMind for automatically finding, diagnosing, and patching security vulnerabilities in software code. It combines advanced reasoning abilities (via Gemini Deep Think models) with program analysis tools, static analysis, dynamic analysis, differential testing, fuzzing, and SMT solvers, to identify root causes of flaws, generate high-quality fixes, and validate them to avoid regressions or functional breakage. CodeMender operates by proposing patches that adhere to style rules and structural correctness, and then uses critique and verification agents to check changes and self-correct if issues arise. It can also proactively rewrite existing code using safer APIs or data structures (for example, applying -fbounds-safety annotations to prevent buffer overflows). To date, CodeMender has upstreamed dozens of patches in large open source projects (including ones with millions of lines of code).

Aardvark is an autonomous security-research agent powered by GPT-5, designed to act like a human security researcher, continuously analyzing source-code repositories, developing threat models, scanning commits for vulnerabilities, validating exploitability in sandboxed environments, and proposing targeted patches for human review. Unlike traditional tools that rely purely on fuzzing or software-composition analysis, Aardvark uses an LLM-based reasoning pipeline to interpret code behavior and integrate directly into existing developer workflows (e.g., GitHub, code-review pipelines, Codex for patch generation). It supports historical scanning of entire repositories at initial connection, commit-level scanning thereafter, automatic patch generation and verification, and human-auditable annotations for each finding. Early internal benchmarks at OpenAI show detection recall of 92% in repositories seeded with known or synthetic vulnerabilities.

Bugbot is an AI-powered code review agent that automatically reviews pull requests to identify bugs, security issues, and code quality problems. Built into the Cursor ecosystem, Bugbot analyzes PR diffs and leaves contextual comments with clear explanations and fix suggestions. It runs automatically on every pull request update or can be triggered manually using comments. Bugbot reads existing PR discussions to avoid duplicate feedback and build on prior context. The tool supports customizable rules through configuration files and team-wide policies to enforce coding standards. Bugbot integrates seamlessly with GitHub, GitLab, and enterprise repositories. It helps development teams catch issues early and improve code quality without slowing down workflows.

Claude Code Security is a new cybersecurity capability built into Claude Code that helps teams identify and fix software vulnerabilities. It scans entire codebases using AI reasoning rather than relying solely on traditional rule-based detection methods. The system analyzes how components interact and how data flows through applications to uncover complex, context-dependent security flaws. Each potential vulnerability undergoes a multi-stage verification process to reduce false positives and ensure accuracy. Findings are assigned severity and confidence ratings, allowing teams to prioritize the most critical risks. The platform suggests targeted software patches, but all fixes require human approval before implementation. Currently available in a limited research preview for Enterprise and Team customers, Claude Code Security is designed to strengthen defenses against AI-enabled cyber threats.

The Most Comprehensive Static Analysis Toolsuite for Ada. CodePeer helps developers gain a deep understanding of their code and build more reliable and secure software systems. CodePeer is an Ada source code analyzer that detects run-time and logic errors. It assesses potential bugs before program execution, serving as an automated peer reviewer, helping to find errors easily at any stage of the development life-cycle. CodePeer helps you improve the quality of your code and makes it easier for you to perform safety and/or security analysis. CodePeer is a stand-alone tool that runs on Windows and Linux platforms and may be used with any standard Ada compiler or fully integrated into the GNAT Pro development environment. It can detect several of the “Top 25 Most Dangerous Software Errors” in the Common Weakness Enumeration. CodePeer supports all versions of Ada (83, 95, 2005, 2012). CodePeer has been qualified as a Verification Tool under the DO-178B and EN 50128 software standards.

CodeSonar employs a unified dataflow and symbolic execution analysis that examines the computation of the complete application. By not relying on pattern matching or similar approximations, CodeSonar's static analysis engine is extraordinarily deep, finding 3-5 times more defects on average than other static analysis tools. Unlike many software development tools, such as testing tools, compilers, configuration management, etc., SAST tools can be integrated into a team's development process at any time with ease. SAST technologies like CodeSonar simply attach to your existing build environments to add analysis information to your verification process. Like a compiler, CodeSonar does a build of your code using your existing build environment, but instead of creating object code, CodeSonar creates an abstract model of your entire program. From the derived model, CodeSonar’s symbolic execution engine explores program paths, reasoning about program variables and how they relate.

CodeSentry is a Binary Composition Analysis (BCA) tool designed to provide detailed insights into the components of binaries, including open-source software, firmware, and containers. It helps identify vulnerabilities within these components by generating Software Bill of Materials (SBOMs) in formats like SPDX and CycloneDX. By mapping components to a comprehensive vulnerability database, CodeSentry enables organizations to mitigate risks and improve software security. It is effective for both pre-production analysis and post-production monitoring, allowing teams to track vulnerabilities throughout the software lifecycle. The tool is flexible in deployment, supporting SaaS and on-premise configurations.
