What Aikido does
Aikido scans code, containers, and cloud infrastructure for vulnerabilities. The platform aims to surface only the issues that matter, so security teams can focus on real risks rather than long lists of low-priority findings. Developers and security engineers use it across the code and infrastructure they own. The listing describes this filtering as a core part of the product.
