that shouldn’t exist.
We’re building AppShield to investigate how your application behaves, follow potential attack paths, and turn scattered findings into something your team can act on.

01 / WHERE APPLICATION RISK HIDESAppShield
A login doesn’t decide who gets access.
A request can be authenticated and still reach data it should never see. The interesting question is how identity, object ownership, and business logic interact across the full request path.
THE INVESTIGATION QUESTION
Which account can perform which action on which resource—and where that boundary is enforced.
AS / A DIFFERENT POINT OF VIEWCONCEPTUAL
Potential pathConceptual view · Application security
A permission check can exist in one path and be missing from another. The difference changes what a user can reach.
Which account can perform which action on which resource—and where that boundary is enforced.
02 / PLANNED CAPABILITIESBuilt to go
Built to go
a layer deeper.
The work we’re designing AppShield to do.
Scope and availability will evolve as we build.
Map the reachable surface
Discover routes, inputs, and authentication boundaries within an explicitly defined scope.
Investigate access paths
Examine how roles, sessions, and object permissions interact across your application.
Explain the finding
Bring the affected path, supporting evidence, and suggested next steps into one reviewable finding.
Give the agent context.
Application routes, API definitions, scoped test accounts, and expected access rules.
Bring back something useful.
Affected paths, access conditions, supporting evidence, and remediation guidance.
THE BOUNDARY
Inputs stay within an agreed scope. Findings and proposed actions are designed for your team to review. Exact integrations and data handling requirements will be defined as the product develops.

- Compare permitted and unexpected access with scoped test accounts.

ANIMATED 3D WORKFLOW / CONCEPT
A conceptual workflow for AppShield. Select a stage to highlight the part of the investigation it supports.
Set the boundaries
Define your application, test environment, and permitted actions.
Follow the paths
The agent examines reachable behavior and investigates potential weaknesses.
Review the evidence
Your team reviews findings and decides which fixes to make.
Where AppShield
fits.
You need to investigate the behavior of a scoped application or API, including what different accounts can reach.
For the implementation behind a finding, Code Guardian focuses on call chains and source-level data flow.
CGCode GuardianThese are planned areas of focus. Cross-agent integrations and supported workflows are still being defined.
05 / A FEW QUESTIONSBefore you
Before you
ask.
Can I use AppShield today?+
AppShield is in development. We’re open to early conversations about your use case and can share progress as the product takes shape.
Will AppShield test production?+
The planned workflow starts with an agreed scope and a suitable test environment. Targets and permitted actions should be explicitly defined by your team.
Does it replace a penetration test?+
We’re building an agent to support continuous investigation. We’re not claiming that it replaces every form of expert assessment or independent security review.
