About Harden
Harden is the enterprise security and governance platform for AI-built apps. Every AI-generated application ships with the same gaps — hardcoded secrets, missing auth, uncontrolled egress, no audit trail. Harden closes them all automatically: build-time SAST and SCA scanning, auto-remediation, runtime enforcement, and one-page approval reports that become the gate in CI/CD.
Our BYOC (Bring Your Own Cloud) architecture deploys entirely inside the customer's VPC — sensitive data never leaves their perimeter. We're a lean, venture-backed team combining AI/ML research leadership from Google DeepMind and Amazon with product leadership from Verkada and AWS, building the security layer that makes enterprise AI adoption safe and scalable.
