Legit Security has announced VibeGuard, a groundbreaking solution designed to secure the AI-powered software development lifecycle at the moment of creation. As "vibe coding" becomes standard, with AI assistants generating code faster than security teams can review it, VibeGuard addresses the critical security gap by integrating directly into developer IDEs. It proactively secures AI-generated code and protects the AI coding agents themselves from manipulation and data exposure, shifting application security from a reactive to a proactive model.

Legit Security launches VibeGuard to secure AI-generated code at creation.
It integrates directly into AI-enabled IDEs like Cursor and GitHub Copilot.
The solution protects against prompt injection and malicious MCP servers.
It continuously trains AI agents with security context and applies guardrails.
VibeGuard provides AppSec teams with complete visibility into AI coding activity.
56% of security pros cite a lack of control over AI code as their top concern.
The rapid adoption of AI coding assistants has created a fundamental shift, rendering traditional application security tools inadequate. These tools rely on human workflows and reactive scanning after code is written, but AI generates code at a pace and volume that overwhelms these processes. VibeGuard redefines this model by operating within the development environment itself, continuously monitoring the AI agent, preventing attacks, and injecting security context to train the AI to code more securely from the outset.
VibeGuard delivers comprehensive protection through a three-pronged approach. First, it secures AI-generated code at creation by applying policy-based controls and guardrails to ensure generated code meets security standards before it is even committed. Second, it protects and secures AI coding agents by monitoring their use of models and tools, blocking attacks like prompt injection, and preventing the exposure of sensitive data. Third, it gives AppSec teams complete visibility into AI use across the organization, unifying governance over every coding environment, prompt, and model.
Company leadership positions VibeGuard as a necessary evolution for the industry. "We're at an inflection point in how software is built," said Roni Fuchs, co-founder and CEO at Legit Security. "Code is no longer written line-by-line by humans — it's generated by machines. With VibeGuard, we're not just launching a new product, we're defining what it means to secure AI-native development... we have a real opportunity to create software that's truly secure — by design." This sentiment is echoed by customers who see AI as a major opportunity that requires new security foundations.
The launch of VibeGuard marks a pivotal step in aligning application security with the realities of modern, AI-driven development. By embedding security directly into the IDE and governing the AI agents that write code, Legit Security provides a critical control layer. This enables development velocity to continue accelerating without compromising on security, effectively bridging the gap between the speed of AI and the necessity of robust application protection.
