Contrast Security
About Contrast Security
Contrast Security provides an Application and API Security platform that detects and stops live application-layer attacks. The platform uses patented in-app sensors that observe application behavior from within. It links active attacks to specific lines of code using a live map called the Contrast Graph. The product is designed to identify verified, exploitable vulnerabilities and provide fixes. It covers software regardless of whether code originated from humans, AI, open source, libraries, or agentic systems.
