Comparison
Aikido vs GitHub Advanced Security
GitHub Enterprise security requires an additional add-on for Advanced Security, which is priced at $588/user/year on top of the GitHub enterprise license. Let's compare pricing for 30 developers.
How it works
How Aikido works
Connect your code, cloud & containers
It does't matter on which tool stack you are. Aikido connects with most popular stacks and scans continuously for issues.
Get relevant security alerts
No need to sift through hundreds of security alerts. Only few of them really matter. Aikido auto-triages notifications.
Scanners
10-in-1 vulnerability scanners
An all-in-one security platform, covering you from code to cloud.
Cloud
Detects cloud infrastructure risks across major cloud providers.
Code & Containers
Continuously monitors your code for known vulnerabilities, CVEs and other risks.
Code
Checks your code for leaked and exposed API keys, passwords, certificates, encryption keys, etc...
Code
Scans your source code for security risks before an issue can be merged.
Code
Scans Terraform, CloudFormation & Kubernetes infrastructure-as-code for misconfigurations.
Containers
Scans your container OS for packages with security issues.
Domain
Dynamically tests your web app’s front-end to find vulnerabilities through simulated attacks. Built on ZAP & Nuclei.
Code & Containers
Monitors your licenses for risks such as dual licensing, restrictive terms, bad reputation, etc..
Code
Prevents malicious packages from infiltrating your software supply chain.
Code & Containers
Checks if any frameworks & runtimes you are using are no longer maintained.
Custom
Imports and auto-triages findings from your current scanner stack.

All-in-one security
Detecting vulnerabilities (CVEs) is just the tip of the iceberg. Aikido combines tools like SCA, secrets detection, SAST, DAST IaC and more. We think that developers should only have to worry about using one tool to cover all security angles. GitHub doesn't offer that all-round protection. (No DAST, IaC, container scans,...)
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. AI SAST Autofix helps you remediate vulnerabilities. (Includes confidence level).

Authenticated DAST
Authenticated DAST logs in as a user to test as many parts of the application as possible. Note: It is advised to never run these scans on a production server.

End-of-life Runtimes
Protect your application from outdated runtimes that could be vulnerable. Outdated runtimes are typically a forgotten issue, but could pose big security risks.
Runtime Protection
Protect your application against common exploits. Aikido Firewall analyzes every request to your application & blocks suspicious activity.

Malware detection
The npm ecosystem is susceptible to malicious packages being published because of its open nature.
Aikido identifies malicious code that may be embedded within JavaScript files or npm packages. Powered by Phylum. (Scans for backdoors, trojans, keyloggers, XSS, cryptojacking scripts and more.)

Automated triaging
Aikido only alerts you for vulnerabilities that can actually reach your code. No false positives, no duplicate issues, no distractions, powered by reachability analysis. GitHub will report far more duplicate vulnerabilities because of their catch-all approach.

Actionable advice
No need to do your own CVE research. Aikido gives you the TL;DR, tells you how you're affected & how you can most easily fix it. The fastest way to remediate your security issues.
Predictable pricing
Licenses start free for single developers. Looking to onboard the team? Check our pricing plans. Aikido uses pricing brackets with users & feature packs included. Transparent pricing, no hidden charges per user or for usage.

FAQ
Is Aikido's software pentested?
Yes. We run a yearly pentest on our platform and also have an ongoing bug bounty program to ensure the security of Zen is continuously tested by a wide range of security experts.
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.
