DryRun Security Revolutionizes Code Security with AI-Powered DeepScan Agent
In a significant advancement for application security, DryRun Security has officially launched its DeepScan Agent, an innovative AI-native capability designed to transform how development teams approach codebase security reviews. The Austin-based company, which positions itself as the industry's first AI-native code security intelligence provider, announced this groundbreaking solution that promises to deliver comprehensive repository analysis in mere hours rather than weeks.
Transforming Security Review Timelines
The DeepScan Agent represents a paradigm shift in application security practices. Traditional full repository security reviews have historically been infrequent, expensive, and time-consuming processes that often require external consultants or pull senior engineers away from their primary development work. Meanwhile, conventional static application security testing (SAST) tools typically generate thousands of alerts that demand manual triage, many of which prove inaccurate and leave genuine security risks either undetected or buried within excessive noise.
"Security teams don't need more alerts, they need answers," emphasized James Wickett, CEO and co-founder of DryRun Security. "Our new DeepScan Agent combines automated full-repo analysis with human-like reasoning about how an application actually works. Instead of flagging every possible issue, teams can quickly understand what's truly risky and fix it before it becomes a problem. It's like having an always-on senior security engineer at your fingertips."
Human-Grade Intelligence at Machine Speed
The DeepScan Agent operates with remarkable efficiency, analyzing entire code repositories within hours while building a sophisticated understanding of application workflows, data relationships, identity management, dependencies, and trust boundaries. This accelerated timeline fundamentally changes how security integrates with development cycles.
"The speed changes the equation," confirmed Kyle Rippee, Staff Product Security Engineer at Tines. "DeepScan Agent gives us a full-repo security view fast enough to use it as a normal part of delivery, not a once-a-year event."
Advanced Detection Capabilities
Unlike traditional pattern-based scanning tools, the DeepScan Agent employs an intent-first approach that reasons about what code actually does, how it might fail, and the real-world exploitability of those potential failures. This sophisticated methodology enables the agent to surface complex security issues that require application-level reasoning, including:
- Authorization and authentication flaws
- Complex Insecure Direct Object References (IDORs) and multi-tenant isolation failures
- Business logic vulnerabilities
- Secrets exposure buried within large codebases
- Server-side request forgery (SSRF) and internal trust-boundary bypasses
Rather than overwhelming teams with volumes of low-value findings, the DeepScan Agent delivers a focused set of issues ranked by actual risk, accompanied by clear explanations and actionable remediation guidance that engineers can implement immediately.
From Scanning to Security Intelligence
This new technology represents a fundamental evolution beyond traditional SAST tools, moving security teams from basic artifact scanning to genuine code security intelligence. The DeepScan Agent translates raw code signals into contextual, actionable insights across entire applications, providing developers and security teams with senior-level security expertise without the operational burden and costs associated with conventional assessment methods.
As AI-enabled software teams continue to ship code at unprecedented rates, security solutions must evolve to match this accelerated pace. DryRun Security's DeepScan Agent addresses this critical need by delivering comprehensive security reviews that keep pace with modern development cycles while providing the depth and accuracy that security professionals require to protect increasingly complex applications.
