Secure how software is built in the age of AI agents

AI agents now write code, invoke tools, and execute workflows autonomously. Evo Agentic Development Security (ADS) secures what agents use, what they do, and what they generate — so you can adopt AI safely and move at AI speed without losing control.

AI agents are changing where risk comes from

Risk is no longer limited to code after it's written. It emerges continuously across AI-driven workflows, where agents operate autonomously, invoke external tools, and generate software faster than human review can keep pace.

Untrusted inputs

Agents pull unseen dependencies into your software supply chain, including MCP servers, skills, and external data sources.

Unbounded behavior

Agents execute workflows, access systems, and interact across environments with limited oversight.

Unverified output

AI generates code at a scale and pace that traditional, after-the-fact validation can’t match.

Welcome to Evo Agentic Development Security (ADS)

Evo ADS secures agentic development across three fronts: the tools your agents connect to, the actions they take, and the code they produce.

This walkthrough covers all of ADS end to end, deploying guardrails fleet-wide from one settings page, governing MCP servers from discovery to enforcement, and catching insecure AI-generated code the moment it's written.

Here's how it works.

A complete system for securing agentic development

Evo Agentic Development Security (ADS) enables organizations to safely adopt and scale AI-driven development without slowing developers or agents. Acting as a continuous control and validation layer, Evo ADS continuously validates what agents use, governs what they do, and ensures the code they generate is secure in real time.

Secure the agent supply chain

Discover MCP servers, skills, and tools across your environment — including ones your teams haven't told you about. Each component is assessed for vulnerabilities, permissions, and provenance, so you can create policies that flag risky components, assign severity, and guide remediation across the fleet.

Govern agent behavior

Control what AI coding agents are allowed to do at runtime — enforcing policy the moment an agent tries to act. Live today: MCP Governance discovers every MCP server your agents use and enforces your organization's allowed list automatically, at execution.

Ensure trusted output

Evo ADS secures code at inception inside AI Coding Agents such as Claude, Cursor, Copilot, and Codex, with fixes applied before code is even suggested to the developer - at the moment of inception.

Unified security across fragmented AI workflows

Fast and safe AI-driven development

Let developers and agents operate at full speed, with guardrails on what they access, execute, and generate.

Reduced risk before production

Stop insecure tools, unsafe actions, and vulnerable code at the moment they’re introduced – before any damage is done.

Eliminated AI blindspots

Understand which agents, tools, and workflows are in use across your organization and how they behave.

AI development governed at enterprise scale

Apply consistent policy across your full AI workforce without slowing innovation.

We're seeing supply chain attacks, malicious skills, and compromised MCP servers riding in on the agent's own toolchain, plus agents taking actions with no guardrails between intent and execution. Working with Snyk, we landed on what I think is the right agentic development security architecture: controls built directly into the agent workflow that govern what an agent uses, executes, and generates.
