GarderavsClaude Code Security

Claude Code Security is a powerful point solution for code vulnerabilities. Gardera is an end to end product security platform covering code, dependencies, supply chain, and cloud. It automates remediation, attributes ownership across teams, and tracks SLAs from a single overview.

Why Gardera

The platform layer Claude Code Security doesn't cover

Gardera is not a code scanning platform. It is a product security platform: code, cloud, pentesting, and vulnerability management orchestration in one place.

Reachability that prioritizes real risk

Cut through CVE noise. Gardera traces public entry points down to vulnerable code and packages, so teams fix what an attacker can actually exploit first.

Full platform, one Threat Graph

SAST, SCA, secrets, IaC, containers, CSPM (AWS / Azure / GCP), SBOMs, license compliance, and runtime, unified. Claude Code Security is code only.

GardStrike: autonomous pentest

An AI attacker with full context of your stack. Discovers, exploits, and verifies real vulnerabilities at runtime in hours, then ships the fix.

GardWatch: install time malware

Blocks typosquats and malicious packages before they enter your repo or your agent's working directory. Critical for AI driven development workflows.

Operational by design

Findings get owners, SLAs, and routes to the right team. Exemption approvals and a workflow rules engine keep security enforced, not advisory.

Predictable, fixed pricing

Flat seat based pricing with no per token surprises. Available from a free tier all the way to enterprise, not gated behind a high tier plan.
