Qwiet AI by Harness provides AI-powered application security software focused on helping development and AppSec teams find, prioritize, and remediate vulnerabilities in modern codebases. Its preZero Platform combines patented Code Property Graph technology with AI/ML analysis to surface issues in custom code and open source dependencies with an emphasis on reachability and exploitability rather than scanner noise.
Qwiet AI by Harness is built to fit developer workflows across CI/CD, CLI, IDE, and repository-driven processes. Its platform analyzes source code and related software supply chain artifacts, and it supports security review across APIs, containers, internal microservices, and first-party business logic. Within the broader Harness portfolio, its automated remediation capabilities now align with Harness application security workflows.
Offerings, Capabilities, and Integrations
Qwiet AI by Harness centers its offering on code analysis, risk prioritization, and remediation assistance. Its technology stack uses Code Property Graph analysis, AI/ML models, and threat context to help teams distinguish reachable, higher-risk issues from lower-priority findings. The platform also extends beyond known CVEs with AI-driven detection for novel or previously unknown weaknesses, plus threat-informed prioritization through Blacklight.
The company emphasizes developer-native deployment and workflow fit. Qwiet AI by Harness supports scans through CI/CD integrations, CLI, and IDE-based usage, and it has expanded integrations with GitHub, Azure DevOps, and Azure Boards. Its capabilities are designed to support both day-to-day secure development and more urgent response scenarios such as zero-day exposure or breach-driven code investigation.
Products and Services
- preZero Platform: Unified code security platform for analyzing vulnerabilities, prioritizing risk, and guiding remediation across source code and software supply chain artifacts.
- SAST: Static application security testing that uses Code Property Graph analysis and AI to identify vulnerable code paths, determine reachability, and reduce false positives.
- Intelligent SCA: Software composition analysis that evaluates open source dependencies in application context to identify vulnerabilities that are actually reachable by attackers.
- AI AutoFix: Agentic AI remediation capability that analyzes findings, generates fixes, and validates patches to accelerate vulnerability resolution.
- Blacklight: Threat-informed prioritization capability that correlates scan results with active exploitation signals and exploitability context to help teams focus on the most urgent fixes.
- AI Findings: AI-driven findings category that surfaces novel or previously unknown vulnerabilities detected through the platform’s AI/ML engine and validated for customer use.
- Code Incident Response: Application security response service for breach situations and zero-day events, focused on identifying, containing, and eliminating code-level vulnerabilities quickly.
- Pentesting: Application penetration testing service that combines automated discovery with manual analysis, including business logic review, API testing, and remediation guidance.
- Container Security: Container-focused security scanning that identifies vulnerable packages and lets teams prioritize container issues alongside application findings.
- Secrets Detection: Capability for detecting secret mismanagement in code using contextual analysis rather than simple pattern matching alone.
Target Customers
Qwiet AI by Harness targets software organizations that need application security embedded into fast-moving development workflows. Its primary users are developers, AppSec teams, DevSecOps practitioners, and engineering leaders that want to reduce vulnerability noise, prioritize what is truly exploitable, and shorten remediation cycles without slowing delivery.
The platform is well aligned to enterprise and mid-market organizations building and maintaining cloud-native applications, APIs, microservices, and dependency-heavy software. Verified use cases and messaging point to demand across industries such as fintech, retail, SaaS, healthcare, manufacturing, and e-commerce, especially where software supply chain risk and compliance pressure are material concerns.
