Pick Legit Security when

  • Mid-to-large orgs with dedicated AppSec teams
  • Ships shipping lots of AI-generated code
  • Teams needing SBOM and supply-chain compliance
  • Orgs consolidating many disconnected security scanners

When Legit Security is not a fit

  • Solo devs and startups . free built-in GitHub/GitLab scanning suffices
  • Teams without an AppSec owner to run and tune it
  • Buyers needing upfront pricing . sales-call quoting only
  • Small teams that just need basic SAST/SCA scanning

Pick Cycode when

  • Enterprise DevSecOps teams
  • Orgs consolidating scattered AppSec point tools
  • Multi-repo, multi-SCM estates
  • Teams wanting AI-driven vuln prioritization

When Cycode is not a fit

  • Startups and small teams . massive overkill
  • Anyone wanting published pricing or self-serve signup
  • Solo devs; GitHub's built-in scanning suffices
  • Teams without budget or staff to own a security platform
