Security at the Speed of Code.
Prevent vulnerabilities before they reach production. Real-time security feedback directly in your IDE as you write code.
Shift Security Left to Your IDE.
Catch vulnerabilities at the earliest possible moment—when you're writing code
Real-Time Detection
Catch vulnerabilities as you write code—before they reach your repository. Instant feedback on security issues in your IDE.
Auto-Fix Suggestions
One-click remediation for common vulnerabilities. Griffin AI suggests compatible, secure alternatives automatically.
Multi-IDE Support
Works seamlessly with VS Code, Cursor, and all JetBrains IDEs: IntelliJ IDEA, PyCharm, WebStorm, PhpStorm, GoLand, RubyMine, CLion, Rider, DataGrip, AppCode, and Android Studio.
Minimal Configuration
Install and start securing your code in about a minute. No complex setup or API keys required to get going.
How It Works.
Three simple steps to secure code as you write it
Install the Extension
Download from VS Code Marketplace or JetBrains Plugin Repository. One-click installation takes about a minute.
Write Code Normally
Continue coding as usual. The extension analyzes your code in real-time, scanning dependencies and packages as you add them.
Fix Issues Instantly
Get inline warnings for vulnerabilities with one-click fixes. Griffin AI suggests secure alternatives automatically.
Inside the editor surface.
Six capabilities that bring scanner accuracy to the moment a line is typed
Inline Lion-powered findings
A near-instant verdict on the line you just typed. The lightweight Lion model runs locally so feedback never leaves the keyboard rhythm.
Hover-tooltip enrichment
CVE summary plus EPSS exploit-prediction and KEV status right where the dependency is declared. No tab-switching, no context loss.
One-click safe upgrade
A quick-fix suggestion picks the lowest-risk patched version that satisfies your constraints. The patch is staged in the editor, ready to commit.
PR-comment prefetch
See exactly what would be flagged in CI before you push. No more push-fail-fix-push cycles eating an afternoon.
Offline mode
Works against a local mirror with no network egress. Air-gapped engineering stations get the same verdicts as cloud-connected ones.
Workspace policy
Repository-level config inherited from the central ESSCM policy. Engineering managers set the rules once and every IDE follows them.
Daily workflows, fewer escalations.
Catch a deserialization sink at typing time
Setup · Enable the extension on the affected language server.
The moment you type a vulnerable pickle.load or readObject pattern, the extension highlights the sink, explains the class of attack, and offers a safer replacement. The bug never reaches CI, much less production.
Mean time to detection: under one second
Block a typosquatted npm package at autocomplete
Setup · Install in VS Code or Cursor — no extra config.
When a developer starts typing 'reqeusts' or 'lodahs', the autocomplete is suppressed and the real package is suggested. The malicious lookalike never enters package.json in the first place.
Typosquats prevented before import
Replace slow PR triage with quick inline review
Setup · Turn on PR-comment prefetch in workspace settings.
Every dependency change shows its CVE delta inline before commit. Reviewers see only the risk that actually shipped, not noisy CI logs. A 'review every CVE in this PR' task collapses to a glance.
PR security review time cut substantially
Give contractors a security-by-default IDE
Setup · Distribute a workspace policy file with the project.
External contributors get the same guardrails as employees without access to your cloud platform. Findings are evaluated locally, telemetry stays inside the workspace, and policy violations block save.
Zero new dashboards for contractor onboarding
