Why Sentinel belongs in your CI pipeline

Security on every commit — not every quarter.

Sentinel

Continuously probes your application for vulnerabilities before they ship.

Meet Sentinel

Sentinel operates like a tireless security researcher embedded in your delivery pipeline. It probes APIs, auth flows, and dependency surfaces continuously — surfacing issues when they are cheapest to fix.

Core capabilities

  • OWASP-aligned vulnerability scanning on every build
  • Auth boundary fuzzing and session fixation checks
  • Dependency and secrets exposure monitoring
  • Prioritized findings with reproduction steps

Shift-left without shift-blame

Sentinel reports flow directly into developer channels with severity, impact, and suggested remediation — framed as engineering tasks, not audit findings.

Integration with GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps, and Jenkins takes under an hour for most teams.

Pair with functional agents

When TestBuddy validates happy paths, Sentinel stress-tests edge cases and abuse scenarios on the same endpoints. Combined coverage catches issues neither agent would find alone.

Security that only runs quarterly is security that only works quarterly.
