“A capability not provided by traditional AppSec tools”

“Since introducing Apiiro at Paddle, we have been able to ensure pipelines are set up securely and have improved insights into the configuration of our source control repositories—a capability not provided by traditional AppSec tools.


This heightened visibility, coupled with Apiiro’s risk-based prioritization and policy engine, instills confidence in our capability to continually measure supply chain risk and assess against best practice moving forward.”

Optimize Risk Detection and Mitigation Strategies

Using our patented deep code analysis (DCA), Apiiro creates a continuous application inventory—called the eXtended software bill of materials (XBOM)—that provides a clear view of application behavior and vulnerabilities.

This visibility helps prioritize and mitigate the highest risks to financial data and maintain compliance throughout the development lifecycle.

Streamline Compliance Processes in Financial Services

Apiiro helps financial institutions comply with SEC, PCI-DSS, SOX, and GDPR by automating material change detection and triggering relevant security actions.

This ensures critical financial data and privacy risks are managed effectively and simplifies audit preparation by providing clear evidence of risk management.

Clarify Security Roles and Responsibilities

Managing security roles across distributed applications, numerous repositories, and sensitive integrations like payment systems and customer data APIs can be a challenge.

Apiiro helps by mapping risks to specific teams, using features like OrgTeams to ensure clear ownership and accountability, without disrupting development.
