You ain't nothin' but a Hounddog!
HoundDog bridges AppSec and Data Security with a lightweight, ultra-fast static code scanner that detects and prevents PII leaks early.
I’ve just discovered an interesting company I wanted to share with you guys, that I’ve already invited to be on the Code Story podcast (stay tuned for that!). Its called HoundDog.ai.
The company focuses on preventing unintentional developer erros, such as oversharing or over-logging PII - or Personally Identifiable Information - before code reaches production. They not only flag leaks overlooked by SAST scanners, but also track data flows to third-party integrations, highlighting data processing agreement (DPA) violations - before they become production issues.
The Sich… 92% of breaches in 2023 involved PII.
HoundDog bridges AppSec and Data Security with a lightweight, ultra-fast static code scanner that detects and prevents PII leaks early. It offers a critical lens into PII data handling and third-party data flows during development, minimizing costly and disruptive remediation efforts if violations are discovered in production.
HoundDog fully automates compliance tasks for teams managing frameworks like HIPAA, PCI, GDPR, and FedRAMP, who often struggle to keep pace with rapid development. Trusted by Fortune 500 firms, HoundDog.ai enables shift-left PII prevention through IDE plug-ins, managed scans, and CI/CD integration.
