Securing AI-Driven Software Development with Legit MCP Server
Legit Security’s MCP Server integrates in-code vulnerability scanning into AI-driven development, enabling seamless security checks within popular IDEs. It supports multiple AI systems and offers easy security reporting via AI chat.
New Solution Simplifies Security for AI-Driven Application Development
AI is changing how software is developed, making the process faster and more autonomous. However, this shift introduces new security risks that traditional application security methods weren’t built to handle. To address this, Legit Security has introduced Legit MCP (Model Context Protocol) Server, a tool designed to simplify vulnerability management in AI-led development.
Legit MCP Server allows development teams to perform in-code vulnerability checks during the pre-production phase directly within popular code editors and IDEs. As an open standard that supports various AI systems, MCP can connect seamlessly with any AI-agnostic code editor and link directly to the data source.
Security Integrated into the Development Workflow
Liav Caspi, co-founder and CTO at Legit, explains that AI has shifted how engineering teams build software and created an opportunity to integrate security into that process. Legit MCP enables developers and security teams to run security checks on the fly, without a learning curve, making secure coding faster and more straightforward.
Moreover, security teams can leverage AI through Legit’s application security data fabric to generate any security posture report simply by querying their preferred AI chat interface. This approach makes managing security more accessible and practical for development teams.
