The paradigm shift

Why your current toolchain will fail in an AI-native world.

GitHub & GitLab support

Run STAR scans directly from your repo. Instant feedback and verified fixes appear where developers already work.

CI/CD pipeline integration

Automate scanning on every push, branch, or scheduled build. Shift left with confidence and keep visibility across the SDLC.

Business impact

Drive real business impact with proactive application security.

Modern businesses can't afford security gaps that slow innovation or expose critical assets. Bright empowers teams to identify and remediate vulnerabilities early — without disrupting development velocity. By integrating security seamlessly into your pipeline, you reduce risk, accelerate releases, and protect what matters most: your customers, data, and brand reputation.

1

Eliminate Security Tech Debt

Bright STAR's AI-driven platform automatically detects, validates, and fixes vulnerabilities contributing to your security tech debt — combining auto-remediation, validation, and pull request automation to keep your codebase secure without manual firefighting.

98% resolved automatically

2

Empowering Developers

Bright STAR delivers developer-centric AppSec automation built to fit seamlessly inside GitHub, GitLab, and CI/CD pipelines — detecting vulnerabilities early and auto-remediating most issues before they ever reach production.

Cuts remediation time by 80%

3

Rapid AI Compliance

Bright STAR integrates directly into your existing workflows, delivering real-time detection, auto-remediation, and compliance validation. It even works with AI coding tools like GitHub Copilot — scanning, testing, and fixing vulnerabilities before code ships.

AI compliance in 30 minutes

4

Unmask & Secure Shadow APIs

Bright STAR extends protection far beyond known endpoints, securing your entire API ecosystem — uncovering hidden APIs, mapping your complete attack surface, and validating every fix with live attack simulation.

How it works

Built for AI-driven development workflows.

As software development shifts toward AI-generated code, traditional security approaches fall behind. Bright STAR introduces a new model — continuous, autonomous security that validates real vulnerabilities in running applications.

1

AI-Driven Code & Entrypoint Discovery

Automatically scans your repositories to identify every code component, function, and dependency — detecting hidden or shadow APIs that traditional scanners often miss.

2

Function-Level Dynamic Vulnerability Detection

Uses advanced AI-based dynamic analysis to detect vulnerabilities in real time, observing live code execution to uncover flaws at the exact function or API endpoint.

3

AI-Powered Remediation & Validation Loop

Automatically proposes and validates fixes for detected vulnerabilities, iterating on each remediation until the issue is proven resolved through attack simulation — not assumption.

4

Pull Request Automation

Automatically creates or updates pull requests populated with verified, AI-generated fixes, detailed vulnerability explanations, and relevant code references.

How Bright compares

Bright STAR vs. legacy AppSec tools.

Legacy tools rely primarily on static analysis, dependency scanning, and crawl-based testing — evaluating code patterns without executing the application. Bright STAR performs runtime, exploit-based dynamic testing, validating vulnerabilities in a live execution context.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Bright STAR Harness?

Bright STAR Harness is Bright's AI-powered AppSec platform. It finds, fixes, and validates real vulnerabilities early in the SDLC — across both human and AI-generated code — then proves each fix with live attack simulation.

How is STAR Harness different from DAST?

Traditional DAST crawls and probes applications. Bright STAR adds runtime, exploit-based validation plus auto-remediation: it proposes a fix, re-tests the running app, and only then opens a pull request with a verified patch.

Does STAR Harness require a running application?

Yes for runtime validation. Bright STAR tests the live application so findings are proven exploitable, then re-tests after remediation to confirm the issue is no longer reproducible.

What kinds of issues can STAR Harness find?

STAR Harness detects exploitable vulnerabilities including logic flaws, API and shadow-API issues, and OWASP API Top 10 risks — with proof-based detection that keeps false positives under 3%.

Does STAR Harness only work for web applications?

No. STAR Harness secures applications and APIs across the SDLC, including hidden or shadow APIs, and integrates with GitHub, GitLab, CI/CD, and AI coding tools such as GitHub Copilot.
