Welcome back to another edition of HackerNoon’s Company of the Week! This series aims to give tech companies from our database the big bright spotlight they rightfully deserve.

This week, we are proud to present Mend.io, a platform designed to give you all the tools you need to build a mature, proactive AppSec program that effectively manages application risk.

Based out of Boston, Massachusetts, Mend.io offers the first AI native application security platform, empowering organizations to build and run a proactive AppSec program tuned for AI powered development.

The unified platform secures AI generated code and embedded AI components, drives risk reduction through AI powered remediation, automates compliance, and provides a holistic enterprise scale view of risks and clear actions for developers across an organization’s entire codebase.

Mend.io boasts a truly impressive repertoire of integrations. Just this year, the company announced it was integrating with Cursor, the fastest-growing IDE built for AI native development, and Microsoft Defender for Cloud.

The Cursor integration embeds Mend SAST directly into the IDE, enabling real-time security scanning and autonomous vulnerability remediation in AI generated code as it’s being written.

Meanwhile, the Microsoft Defender for Cloud integration brings Mend.io’s industry-leading Software Composition Analysis (SCA) and reachability analysis directly into the Microsoft Cloud-Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP).

How’s that for cool!

Mend.io has partnered with HackerNoon on the business blogging program, designed to drive technologists to content and optimize brand recall.

HackerNoon's Business Blogging program gives the business the screen space of the author bio, links to business social media accounts, and a prominent call to action linking to anywhere on the interwebs of the sponsor's choosing.

For Mend.io, the business blogging program offered an opportunity to bring their best foot forward, and truly demonstrate their technical prowess to a relevant audience.
