ADLC security
Secure your agentic
development lifecycle (ADLC)
AI-assisted development is redefining the software lifecycle. Protect every AI interaction across the ADLC with visibility, governance, and guardrails.

ADLC security
Expand coverage over your
AI software factory
Security is no longer about remediating human-coded vulnerabilities. It is about controlling the AI tools developers use, blocking exposure via prompts, enhancing coding agents with security context, automatically fixing AI-generated vulnerabilities, implementing preventative controls, and continuously managing AI security posture.
AI visibility
See every AI technology across the ADLC
Discover AI code assistants, models, infrastructure, MCP servers, packages, secrets, rule files, and skills across your software factory. Build a continuously updated inventory of AI usage without relying on manual reporting.
AI governance
Secure AI adoption with policies and controls
Turn visibility into control with AI governance and policies. Create allowlists and blocklists. Manage authorization workflows. Flag violations. Enforce internal compliance. And maintain a live AIBOM to facilitate reporting and make AI adoption auditable.
AI guardrails
Prevent risky prompts and actions in real time
Use AI hooks and Cycode MCP serve in the IDE and CLI to intercept prompts, file reads, and tool calls before sensitive data reaches external AI services. Enrich coding agents with security context and skills, and validate outputs before commit.
AI visibility
You can’t govern what
you can’t see
Cycode detects the AI signals traditional security tools miss: commit metadata, AI bot users, rule files, skill files, MCP configurations, AI packages, AI secrets, and model references across repositories. That visibility becomes your AI Bill of Materials — a structured, exportable map of AI usage across the SDLC.
AI code assistants
Copilot, Cursor, Windsurf, Tabnine, and more. Authorized and unauthorized, both.
AI models & infrastructures
GPT-4o, Llama, Mistral, Amazon SageMaker, Hugging Face, and custom endpoints
MCP servers & AI secrets
Model Context Protocol server connections and AI API keys embedded across repos.
AI packages & rule files
AI dependencies in your supply chain and rule files like .cursorrules committed to repos.
AI created a new software
development reality.
AI guardrails
Protect AI-assisted development
where it happens
The IDE, CLI, browser, and coding agents are now a security boundary. Cycode AI Guardrails enforces controls before prompts are sent, before files are added to agent context, and before tool calls are executed — helping stop secret leakage and risky AI interactions without forcing developers into new workflows.
Before prompts leave the IDE or CLI
Scan outbound prompts for secrets, sensitive data patterns, and policy violations in real time.
Before sensitive files enter AI context
Intercept file reads that would expose credentials, PII, or confidential configuration to external AI services.
Before risky MCP tool actions are executed
Block or warn on MCP tool calls that contain secrets or violate your security policies.
AI governance
Enable secure AI adoption
with policies and controls
Organizations are racing to deploy and develop AI technologies. But adoption without governance is chaos. Cycode empowers teams to define policies for AI tool use and configurations, manage violations, and maintain an AI Bill of Materials (AIBOM) for compliance and reporting.
AI policies
Create allowlists and blocklists for AI technologies and manage approval workflows to facilitate adoption and track violations.
IaC for AI agents
Prevent excessive permissions and misconfigurations of AI agents and technologies in the ADLC.
AI risk posture
Manage AI violations with risk scores and traceability to specific project, repository, developer, and agent.
AI bill of materials (AIBOM)
Maintain a comprehensive inventory of AI technologies mapped to your repositories and Cycode Projects.
Build securely with one connected platform.
Move from AI assistance to
AI orchestration
Maestro is not just another assistant layered onto AppSec workflows. It is the orchestration engine that activates the right AI agents in the right order to deliver answers and actions across your software factory. For teams overwhelmed by fragmented signals and manual triage, that changes the operating model.

Multi-agent orchestration
Maestro coordinates specialized agents across scanning, triage, investigation, and remediation without manual handoffs.
Context-first intelligence
Built on Cycode’s Context Intelligence Graph, Maestro understands your codebase, pipeline, and risk posture before taking action.
Scale AppSec operations
Maestro helps security teams do more with less — turning manual investigation workflows into automated, repeatable programs.
Shift Left is dead.
Secure AI adoption without
slowing development
Cycode helps security teams discover AI across the SDLC, govern what’s allowed, protect developer workflows in real time, unify AI risk, and orchestrate action across the software factory.
