PALO ALTO, Calif., Nov. 4, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- Endor Labs, a leader in agentic development security, has been named a Leader in The Forrester Wave™: Agentic Development Security Tools, Q4 2026. The company received the highest possible score in seven evaluation criteria, reflecting its approach to securing the rapidly evolving agentic development lifecycle (ADLC).

As organizations increasingly rely on AI coding agents to write, modify, and deploy software, the application security landscape is undergoing a fundamental shift. These agents can now independently select dependencies, execute commands, and modify application code, introducing security decisions and risks that extend beyond traditional application security testing. This evolution requires a new approach to security that governs agent behavior, evaluates the software agents produce, and provides actionable remediation guidance throughout development.

Endor Labs has built its platform to address the expanding security requirements of AI-driven software development, combining agent governance, application security testing, dependency protection, and AI-powered remediation within developers' existing workflows. The company's capabilities include:

- Agent Governance: Applies security policies to supported coding agent actions through native hooks, helping organizations control agent behavior and reduce risks within development environments. - AI-Powered Application Security: Continuously analyzes application code and dependencies to identify and prioritize vulnerabilities using deep application context. - Software Supply Chain Protection: Evaluates open-source packages at installation time through Endor Labs Package Firewall, helping prevent risky dependencies from entering the development environment. - Agent-Native Security Workflows: Integrates with major AI coding agents, including Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and Devin, to deliver security guidance and remediation capabilities within existing development processes.

Endor Labs' platform is designed to help teams identify, prioritize, and fix vulnerabilities across code, open-source dependencies, and container images. With agentic reasoning, deep program analysis, automated remediation, and unmatched coverage, the company empowers modern engineering and security teams to move fast without compromising on security.
