SDLC Stages
Asymptote integrates into five stages of your Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC) to catch vulnerabilities before they reach production: design, code generation, CI/pull requests, pre-production testing, and asynchronous codebase scans.| Stage | When | What Asymptote Does |
|---|---|---|
| Secure by Design | Before code is written | Injects security policies into the agent’s context at session start |
| Code Generation | As code is written in your IDE | Scans diffs in real time, flags risky patterns, and enforces policies on every AI tool call |
| CI / Pull Requests | When a PR is opened or updated | Reviews the full diff, posts inline findings, and blocks merge on policy violations |
| Pre-production Testing | Before deploying to staging or production | Whitebox agentic pentesting |
| Asynchronous Codebase Scans | On demand or on a schedule | Full policy sweep across your entire codebase, independent of your deployment pipeline |
The Asymptote Approach
Traditional security tools run after code is written, scanning at deployment time when vulnerabilities are already baked in. Asymptote embeds security at every stage of the SDLC, from the first line of code to pre-production, creating a continuous feedback loop that catches issues earlier and cheaper.
