Unified software security across code, cloud, pentesting, and runtime
Aikido Security is a unified software security platform spanning code, cloud, pentesting, and runtime. Founded in Ghent, Belgium, the company frames the product as broader than application security: code security and application testing sit alongside cloud security and runtime protection, with on-premises pentesting among the more recent additions. Each product is built to stand on its own, and the stated aim is to surface exploitable risk in real environments rather than a queue of theoretical findings.
Run together on Aikido's central platform, the products share context across code, cloud, and runtime, which the company says improves prioritization, reduces false positives, and speeds remediation. Coverage spans software composition analysis, static application security testing, infrastructure-as-code scanning, secrets detection, malware identification, license compliance, and container image security, integrated directly into existing CI/CD pipelines so findings reach developers with remediation guidance attached. Aikido says it is used by more than 150,000 teams, including Deel, Revolut, SoundCloud, and Niantic.
