Mend AppSec
The code layer is evolving. Your security should too.
Find what matters, validate what’s real, and fix it faster with high-accuracy SAST, reachability-driven SCA, agentic triage, and AI-powered remediation.
Built for the speed of modern development
Cut remediation work by 75% with AI fixes and context
Prioritize real risk, not just severity scores
Mend.io combines reachability, exploit intelligence, and application context to prioritize risk, while Contextual Project Classification identifies business-critical functions and sensitive data directly from code — helping teams understand both technical severity and potential business impact.
Validate and remediate faster with AI
Mend uses AI-assisted triage to validate SAST findings and +46% more accurate AI-powered remediation to deliver code fixes and safer dependency updates, helping developers move from detection to resolution faster across both proprietary and open source code.
Secure risks before they are committed to your codebase
Mend AppSec integrates with AI coding agents to bring security directly into agentic development. When an agent generates code or proposes a dependency, Mend.io can check the code for security weaknesses and dependencies for known vulnerabilities, return actionable guidance, and enable the agent to remediate and re-test before the change is accepted.
Connect security to developer workflows
Secure your applications without changing how developers build.
Bring security findings, AI-assisted triage, remediation guidance, and automated dependency updates directly into developer workflows. Mend AppSec integrates across AI coding agents, repositories, pull requests, IDEs, and CI/CD so developers can understand, validate, and fix vulnerabilities without security becoming a bottleneck.
Turn security policy into automated action
Apply consistent security and compliance controls across applications and repositories. Use vulnerability severity, licensing, application context, remediation SLAs, and other risk factors to trigger workflows, enforce policy, and stop unacceptable risk before release — while preserving the evidence security and compliance teams need.
Extend your AppSec coverage
Find and fix exploitable runtime vulnerabilities
Protect APIs from exploitation
Drop-in support for deprecated open source
Across your stack. Inside every workflow.
Mend AppSec lives where your developers work. Deep integrations across IDEs, repositories, CI/CD, and package managers deliver automated risk remediation and policy enforcement from first keystroke to production.

“One of our most indicative KPIs is the amount of time for us to remediate vulnerabilities and also the amount of time developers spend fixing vulnerabilities in our code base, which has reduced significantly. We’re talking about at least 80% reduction in time.”
“Overall, the product is great. It solves the OSS vulnerabilities, OSS commercial product license restrictions, and is diving deep into AI license and usage vulnerabilities.”
“When the product you sell is an application you develop, your teams need to be fast, secure and compliant. These three factors often work in opposite directions. Mend provides the opportunity to align these often competing factors, providing Vonage with an advantage in a very competitive marketplace.”
“It is one of the easiest and best ways to analyze coding. With AI, it is able to detect security flaws and compliance issues quickly and accurately.”
“The biggest value we get out of Mend is the fast feedback loop, which enables our developers to respond rapidly to any vulnerability or license issues. When a vulnerability or a license is disregarded or blocked, and there is a policy violation, they get the feedback directly.”
Mend AppSec FAQs
What is Mend AppSec?
Mend AppSec is an application security platform that unifies SAST, SCA, and container scanning in a single product. It’s built to secure both AI-generated and user-generated code inside modern applications, with shared policy, prioritization, and remediation workflows.
How is Mend AppSec different from an ASPM (Application Security Posture Management) tool?
ASPM tools aggregate findings from third-party scanners but rarely replace them, leaving coverage gaps and duplicate noise. Mend AppSec is both the scanner and the management layer — natively owning SAST, SCA, and container image scans — so prioritization and remediation work end to end without relying on external tools.
How does Mend AppSec secure AI-generated code from Copilot, Cursor, and similar tools?
Mend AppSec uses a dual-scan flow: a fast, AI-tuned scan at the moment of code generation in the IDE provides real-time feedback in the IDE, followed by deep SAST and SCA analysis at commit. This catches flaws in both AI-generated and human-written code without slowing developers down.
How does Mend AppSec enforce policies across SAST, SCA, and dependencies?
Mend AppSec uses a unified policy engine that lets security teams define one set of rules — severity thresholds, SLAs, license types— and apply them across every product in the platform. Violations trigger consistent alerts, build failures, or PR blocks.
What deployment options does Mend AppSec support?
Mend AppSec supports SaaS, hybrid, and on-premises deployments. Sensitive source code can be scanned locally with Mend SAST without leaving your environment, while management, reporting, and policy controls run in the cloud — suitable for regulated industries and air-gapped environments.
How does Mend AppSec reduce vulnerability remediation time?
Mend AppSec combines reachability-driven prioritization, AI-powered fixes, and automated dependency updates to cut remediation work by up to 75%. Findings are grouped, deduplicated, and delivered directly into IDEs, repos, and tickets, so developers spend time fixing what truly matters.
Which compliance and security certifications does Mend AppSec hold?
Mend AppSec is built and operated to meet enterprise compliance requirements, including SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, and GDPR;the platform’s audit log and SBOM/AI-BOM output also support customer security reviews and regulator requests.
