Features
Features that you'll love
Scans Pre-deployment
Aikido does Infrastucture as Code (IaC) scans, to make sure your code is scanned before it’s deployed. We even go one step further and integrate into your CI so we can stop risky code from being deployed.
Virtual machine scanning
Aikido scans your AWS EC2 instances for vulnerabilities. 100% coverage, from code to cloud, without any agents.
Deduplicates Container CVEs
Aikido will deduplicate and filter out all Docker/Container CVE findings from, for example, AWS inspector.
Rescores Vulnerability Severity Scores
Staging or production clouds vulnerabilities have very different risk profiles. Aikido recalculates the severity scores of vulnerabilities based on the purpose of your cloud. If you link your containers to their clouds, those vulnerabilities’ severity will also be recalculated.
Static Code Analysis
Aikido performs static analysis (SAST) by scanning the source code to identify potential security vulnerabilities without executing the code. It works out-of-the-box and supports all languages.
Authenticated DAST
Authenticated DAST logs in as a user before a DAST scan, to test as much of the application as possible. Note: It is advised to never run these scans on a production server.

Outdated Runtimes
Aikido goes beyond just CVE monitoring. Aikido monitors for outdated runtimes, no matter if they are in containers, lambdas, elastic beanstalk (AWS) or kubernetes…
Orchestrate security follow-up
Aikido is API-first. Easily integrate your project management tools, task managers, chat apps,.. Sync your security findings and status to Jira. Vulnerability fixed? Jira syncs back to Aikido. Get chat alerts for new findings, routed to the correct team or person, for each project.

On-prem security
Aikido combines a variety of cloud-based scanning capabilities such as SAST, DAST, IaC, SCA, CSPM and more. Would you rather scan your git organization on-premise? Download the Aikido local scanners to get started.

Noise reduction
Aikido checks if you're using a certain function. If not, it's clearly a false positive and it's automatically triaged.
Read our docs
When Aikido finds a vulnerability, it will report these issues as one issue. Unlike other scanners that will overload you with 20 separate issues if the affected function is found multiple times.
Over 30 auto-ignore rules filter out false positives. You can feed Aikido with information to automatically adapt severity scores. (What's staging/production? What resources you consider critical?)

FAQ
Does Aikido require agents?
No! Unlike others, we're fully API based, no agents are needed to deploy Aikido! This way you're up & running in mere minutes & we're way less intrusive!
I don’t want to connect my repository. Can I try it with a test account?
Of course! When you sign up with your git, don’t give access to any repo & select the demo repo instead!
What happens to my data?
We clone the repositories inside of temporary environments (such as docker containers unique to you). Those containers are disposed of, after analysis. The duration of the test and scans themselves take about 1-5 mins. All the clones and containers are then auto-removed after that, always, every time, for every customer.
