The Top 10 Application Security Posture Management (ASPM) Tools

Cycode offers a complete approach to application security posture management as well as its own proprietary scanning capabilities from code to cloud (Secrets, SAST, SCA, CI/CD, IaC, and Container), but also allows you to connect to any of your third party security tools via its ConnectorX platform and ASPM marketplace of 100+ connectors and integrations. The Cycode Complete ASPM platform delivers real-time visibility into your security posture across the organization, with the ability to also discover any of your development and security tools across the SDLC. 

As a complete ASPM platform, Cycode can also work alongside your other scanning tools (like Snyk, Wiz, and Checkmarx), enabling you to have complete flexibility, but also optionality when it comes to building out your App Sec program with complete visibility. In addition, Cycode’s Risk Intelligence Graph (RIG), the ‘brain’ behind the platform, correlates and provides code to cloud traceability across your entire dev and security environment. Its Risk Intelligence Graph (RIG) is integrated with generative AI, so you can make queries with just natural language. 

Risks are prioritized using AI, based on factors like business risk, exploitability, and severity. The platform also provides an overall risk score for your entire organization, making it easier to identify and address risks and improve security behaviors.

Cycode have also recently announced several new AI features: including Material Code Change Alerting AI, which monitors codebase for significant code changes in real time, then alerts security team to potential risks, an AI Regex Builder, which automatically generates Regex patterns, and AI Secrets Detection, which automatically identifies passwords and API keys left in code.

Cycode ASPM enables your team to break down barriers between security and development, allowing teams to shift left and remediate risk earlier in the SDLC. It enables developers to quickly remediate vulnerabilities in their existing workflows, favorite tools, and methodologies like their IDE, CLI, or PR scans. Cycode also operates a threat research team that provides threat intelligence focused on zero day threats. This team delivers in-app advice and remediation tips for emerging vulnerabilities.

Wiz Code extends ASPM by embedding security earlier in the development lifecycle, ensuring that vulnerabilities and misconfigurations are identified before deployment. Unlike traditional ASPM solutions that primarily focus on securing applications post-deployment, Wiz Code integrates agentless scanning for Infrastructure as Code (IaC), dependencies, and secrets directly into developer workflows. This shift-left approach helps security teams catch risks before they impact production environments, reducing remediation costs and minimizing security debt. By integrating seamlessly with CI/CD pipelines, Wiz Code aligns security with the software development lifecycle (SDLC), enabling proactive risk mitigation without disrupting developer efficiency.

Wiz Code stands out with its Code-to-Cloud Context feature which connects code vulnerabilities to their operational impact in cloud environments. This feature maps vulnerabilities from application code and third-party dependencies to cloud deployment, enabling risk prioritization based on real-world exposure. This approach efficiently highlights high-risk issues and mitigates alert fatigue by focusing on critical security threats.

Wiz Code also brings policy enforcement and governance into ASPM by allowing teams to define and enforce security policies as code. This ensures that applications adhere to compliance standards, security best practices, and internal governance policies from development to deployment. Unlike standalone ASPM tools, Wiz Code unifies application security with cloud security, bridging the gap between developers and security teams while maintaining agility.  

Wiz Code is best suited for organizations seeking a comprehensive, cloud-native application security solution. It excels in environments that already employ varied security tools, offering seamless unification and prioritization of security findings from multiple sources. We recommend Wiz Code for businesses aiming to integrate robust security across their development lifecycle, improving both efficacy and collaboration in application security management.
