 Symbiotic Security Raises $3 Million to Help Developers Fix Bugs in Real-Time
The company, Symbiotic Security, has secured a $3 million seed round to further develop its platform that helps developers identify and fix security bugs as they code. The platform, launched earlier this year, uses AI-driven technology to provide real-time feedback to developers on potential security issues.

According to the article, Symbiotic's approach differs from other companies in the field by not only identifying security issues but also teaching developers how to avoid them in the first place. This is achieved through short training sessions and videos that are tailored to the developer's immediate needs.

The company plans to expand its platform to support more programming languages and application stacks, with a focus on infrastructure-as-code languages like Terraform. Symbiotic's co-founder and CEO, Jerome Robert, emphasized the importance of empowering developers to take ownership of security issues, rather than relying on security teams to detect and correct them.
