Introducing Run Security: Redefining Runtime Application Security

For too long, runtime application security has been reactive—operating in snapshots, scanning for vulnerabilities at fixed points in time, and leaving dangerous gaps between detection and resolution. At Run Security, we knew there had to be a better way. Security should move at the speed of development, always active, always watching, and never missing a beat. That’s why we built Run Security: to redefine runtime security and transform the way security and development teams work together.

What We’re Solving For

Run Security brings runtime application security into the modern era. Traditional application security tools are disjointed, creating fragmented visibility and rely on periodic scanning—meaning services remain unmanaged and vulnerabilities remain undetected until it’s too late. Our technology is different. Leveraging eBPF, Run Security provides continuous, always-active observability and vulnerability management for applications at runtime.

This means security teams get deeper insights into application’s activity, services, and vulnerabilities without slowing development down. Enabling them to stay focused on what they do best—building great software. Our approach dramatically reduces false positives, streamlines remediation, and consolidates observability, detection, testing, and vulnerability management into a single, always-active solution. No more waiting, no more guesswork—just continuous security that keeps pace with your applications.

A Brand That Reflects Our Vision

When we created the Run Security brand, we wanted it to reflect our core mission of transforming the way applications are architected, operated, and secured. From a security perspective, we need to have solutions that are always-active and minimize the workload for teams. Our bright, bold color scheme—especially our signature green—symbolizes that commitment. Green means always active, continuously running. It means security teams can rest easy knowing that their applications are secure, and CISOs can trust that nothing critical is being missed, even when they’re off the clock. We’re not just promising peace of mind; we’re delivering it.

Our logo is more than just an ‘R’—it’s a symbol of shifting security left, catching vulnerabilities before they ever reach production. By integrating security continuously into the development lifecycle, we help organizations move faster and work smarter.

Why “Run” Security?

The name Run Security reflects our product’s core strength: security that runs with your apps. But it also ties into something deeply personal for me. As an avid marathon runner—66 races down, with a goal of hitting 100—I know firsthand that success isn’t about short bursts of effort. It’s about endurance, consistency, and always being prepared for what’s ahead. Security should operate the same way. It’s not about reacting when it comes time to run your weekly or quarterly scans; it’s about being ready, always on, and always running.

As I like to say, "Security isn’t a sprint—it’s a marathon. At Run Security, we’re always running so you don’t have to. Our solution is always learning, always protecting, and always keeping your applications safe."

With Run Security, your applications are never in the dark, never unsecured, and never vulnerable. We’re excited to bring this new era of runtime security to the world of AppSec—and we’re just getting started.
