# Kodem Security
> Kodem is an AI-native Application Security platform built on runtime intelligence. It connects code analysis, runtime evidence, AI reasoning, and runtime protection into one system, so security teams prioritize and fix what is actually exploitable in production instead of triaging every theoretical finding.
Kodem's core idea: runtime provides truth. Static analysis shows what might be vulnerable. Runtime reveals what actually loads, executes, and is exposed. Kodem enriches code and dependency findings with function-level runtime evidence to determine real exploitability, then uses AI (Kai) grounded in that evidence to accelerate remediation. Founded in 2021 by Aviv Mussinger, Idan Bartura, and Pavel Furman. SOC 2 Type II. Deploys in about 5 minutes across cloud and on-premise environments.
## Products
- [Open Source Security (SCA)](https://www.kodemsecurity.com/products/dynamic-sca): Runtime-powered software composition analysis. Finds vulnerabilities in open source and transitive dependencies, then confirms which packages load and which vulnerable functions actually run.
- [Proprietary Code Security (SAST)](https://www.kodemsecurity.com/products/runtime-sast): Native SAST powered by Opengrep with 1,000+ rules, plus secrets detection, correlated with runtime evidence to prioritize reachable, executing code paths.
- [Application Detection & Response (ADR)](https://www.kodemsecurity.com/products/application-detection-response): Shield detects exploit attempts at the application layer at the moment of initiation, including zero-day and fileless attacks, without signatures.
