Start Left® Security is a cybersecurity company based in Jacksonville Beach, Florida, focused on integrating security into software product development from the earliest stages of the software development lifecycle (SDLC). The company holds US Patents 11,080,162 and 11,288,167, which it claims predate Gartner's formal coining of the Application Security Posture Management (ASPM) category. The company offers a platform described as an "execution intelligence layer" that connects developers, code, security, and cloud infrastructure. Its platform addresses application security posture management (ASPM), managed software supply chain security, cloud security posture management (CSPM), and secure code training. It targets SaaS companies and modern DevOps-driven engineering teams. Key platform capabilities include risk and execution analytics, embedded security within CI/CD workflows, developer-centric execution optimization, governance and adoption metrics, third-party risk management (TPRM) scoring, and auto-prescribed developer learning through gamification. The platform uses AI to help teams proactively manage security risks without introducing friction into development workflows. Start Left® Security positions its offering against traditional ASPM, CSPM, DevOps tooling, and GRC solutions, arguing that existing tools track and report on risk but do not address the underlying execution problems in how software is built. The platform targets multiple organizational personas including C-suite executives, CISOs, AppSec teams, GRC practitioners, CTOs, engineering leaders, and DevOps/SRE teams.
