Tromzo is a Product Security Operating Platform (PSOP) built by security practitioners. Tromzo’s mission is to eliminate the friction between developers and security teams, making security accessible, easy, and natural for developers. This is achieved by improving security throughout the software development lifecycle (SDLC).
Tromzo’s primary goal is to help application security teams scale their programs by enabling them to find and fix their most critical vulnerabilities. Tromzo aims to achieve this by providing complete visibility and context across the application security landscape, automating manual workflows, and reducing noise from various security tools. Tromzo enables organizations to protect their software supply chain and accelerate risk remediation from code to cloud. Tromzo is recognized in the Application Security Posture Management (ASPM) market.
Market reputation suggests Tromzo is valued for providing a high-level overview of AppSec programs and for its potential in helping manage and prioritize vulnerabilities. It is backed by numerous leading CISOs who have personally invested in the company. Users have noted its customization capabilities and integrations. Some feedback indicates that while it is an evolving product, it helps in making AppSec programs more efficient.
Offerings, Capabilities, and Integrations
Tromzo offers an AI-powered Application Security Posture Management (ASPM) platform, also referred to as a Product Security Operating Platform (PSOP). This platform is designed to help security teams and developers prioritize and remediate security risks throughout the software development lifecycle (SDLC), from code to cloud. Tromzo’s core capabilities include centralizing security findings from various tools into a unified security data lake, leveraging AI for risk prioritization and triage, and automating workflows. Tromzo integrates with a wide array of development and security tools, including those for version control (like GitHub and GitLab), CI/CD (like Jenkins), cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud), issue tracking (Jira), and various security scanners (SAST, DAST, SCA, CSPM, CNAPP). This comprehensive approach to integration and its AI-driven prioritization give Tromzo a competitive edge by enabling organizations to focus on fixing vulnerabilities that pose a genuine threat, thereby reducing noise and improving remediation speed. Tromzo aims to make security accessible and collaborative for developers, fostering a proactive security culture.
Products and Services
Tromzo’s primary offering is its Product Security Operating Platform (PSOP), an Application Security Posture Management (ASPM) solution. This platform provides the following key services and functionalities:
- Software Asset Discovery and Inventory: Tromzo creates a comprehensive inventory of software assets, including code repositories, dependencies, SBOMs, containers, and microservices.
- AI-Powered Risk Prioritization and Triage: The platform uses AI agents and an “Intelligence Graph” to analyze vulnerabilities, determine their true risk impact by considering factors like reachability and exploitability, and eliminate false positives. This helps in prioritizing critical remediation efforts.
- Unified Security Data Lake: Tromzo centralizes security findings from all integrated tools (SAST, DAST, SCA, CSPM, CNAPP, and more) into a single data lake, providing a complete view of an organization’s security posture.
- Automated Vulnerability Remediation Workflows: The platform automates aspects of the vulnerability remediation process, including triage, ownership assignment, and risk governance. It provides tailored remediation recommendations.
- Security Guardrails: Tromzo offers pre-built and customizable security policies that can be applied within developer workflows and CI/CD pipelines to influence developer behavior and build security into the SDLC.
- Comprehensive Security Posture Reporting: Tromzo provides dashboards and reports that offer insights into an organization’s risk posture, track risk reduction, and demonstrate measurable progress for compliance and security goals.
- Software Supply Chain Security: Tromzo helps organizations secure their software supply chain by providing visibility into internal and external code, managing vendor risk, hardening the delivery pipeline, and securing the operating environment.
- Application Security Orchestration and Correlation (ASOC): The platform enables organizations to correlate findings from code to cloud for prioritization and automated vulnerability remediation.
The Tromzo Intelligence Graph is a core component, announced in April 2023, that visualizes the risk posture for all software assets and helps in understanding the relationships between them. Tromzo does not provide its own scanning tools but integrates with existing third-party scanners.
