Endor Labs named a leader in agentic development security by Forrester
Endor Labs earned the highest possible scores in seven criteria in a recent evaluation of security tools for AI-driven software development.
Palo Alto-based Endor Labs has been recognized as a leader in the "The Forrester Wave: Agentic Development Security Tools, Q4 2026" report. The company achieved the highest possible score in seven criteria, reflecting its focus on securing the evolving landscape of agentic development lifecycles (ADLC).
The rise of AI coding agents is reshaping how software is created. As these agents gain autonomy to execute commands, modify code, and select dependencies, they introduce risks that traditional application security testing tools are not equipped to handle. Organizations now require platforms that can govern agent behavior and evaluate the code produced in real-time.
"AI agents are fundamentally changing how software gets built, and security needs to evolve just as quickly," said Varun Badhwar, CEO and co-founder of Endor Labs. He noted that the company’s platform is designed to provide visibility and actionable remediation within existing development workflows, balancing security with the speed of innovation.
Endor Labs provides tools for agent governance, application security testing, and dependency protection. By integrating with AI agents such as Claude Code, Codex, and Devin, the platform aims to manage risks throughout the development process. The company continues to emphasize the importance of deep application context to help enterprises prioritize security vulnerabilities as they scale their use of AI-driven tools.
