Bright Security

Bright Security is an application security company founded in 2018 that develops developer-centric dynamic application security testing technology. The company’s platform is designed to identify exploitable vulnerabilities in running web applications, APIs, business logic and LLM-enabled applications while fitting into modern software development workflows. Bright emphasizes DAST that can be used earlier in the software development lifecycle, allowing developers and AppSec teams to test applications through CI/CD pipelines, APIs and command-line tooling rather than waiting for late-stage security reviews. Its testing approach evaluates applications from the outside in and does not require source code, helping teams find runtime issues that static analysis may miss. Bright also focuses on reducing false positives and providing remediation guidance so developers can act on findings more quickly. The platform supports application security governance while enabling development teams to take greater ownership of security testing. Current positioning includes security testing for AI-generated code and LLM applications alongside traditional web and API testing. Bright serves organizations that need continuous application security testing without creating excessive friction in DevOps processes.
