How Do ArmorCode and Legit Security Stack Up Against Each Other?  
Both Legit Security and ArmorCode are ASPM (application security posture management) solutions intended to help security teams better manage their application security programs. Both strive to make sense of AppSec findings for security teams, making it easier to prioritize and remediate them.  
Legit Security Vs. ArmorCode Differences
There are a number of important distinctions between the Legit Security and ArmorCode solutions. For instance:    
beyond-aggregation

Beyond aggregation of findings 

ArmorCode focuses primarily on aggregation and consolidation of application vulnerabilities from integrations with existing application security tooling. Legit focuses on not only aggregation of vulnerabilities, but also the prioritization and root cause analysis of vulnerabilities to allow for faster identification and remediation of risk.    

integrating-with

Integrating with scanners vs. built-in scanners

ArmorCode relies heavily on external security tools for insight and offers no built-in analysis engines; Legit not only integrates with existing security tools, but also brings built-in application security scanners for SCA, SAST, pipeline and source control management security, secrets detection, and more. 

identifying-findings

Identifying findings vs. overall risk 

ArmorCode is focused on a consolidated view of AppSec findings; Legit is focused on a comprehensive view of application risk. Legit offers best-of-breed visibility into the entire software factory and then helps you quickly prioritize and remediate the areas of highest risk.

Framework-Mapping-Updated

Framework mapping 

ArmorCode does not associate controls with compliance frameworks, while Legit maps to various industry standards, including PCI-DSS, ISO 27001, NIST 800.53, SSDF, CISA Attestation, FedRAMP,  SLSA, and OWASP standards.  

Why Legit Security is the Top Choice Over ArmorCode

Frequently Asked Questions

Legit Security Competitors FAQs

Legit Security and ArmorCode assist security teams in optimizing their application security programs by providing clarity and prioritization to AppSec findings.
