Our take

Keeping businesses safe from cyberthreats is getting more and more complex, creating the need for sophisticated cybersecurity solutions. Safety Cybersecurity is one such solution, providing a vulnerability scanner to keep Python development secure.

The company's scanner works by detecting known vulnerabilities and malicious packages. It also alerts users to which ones need immediate attention. It is designed to work across every stage of the software development lifecycle, and to serve teams no matter their size or complexity of their projects - making it a strong all-in-one option.

This approach, which prioritises preventative safety, aligns with the broader shift towards proactive cybersecurity. Safety Cybersecurity already serves a range of clients, and it will be interesting to see how it develops into the future.
