KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 10 (Bernama) -- Checkmarx, the global leader in agentic application security, has acquired Tromzo, a pioneer in artificial intelligence (AI)-native autonomous security agents.
The deal marks a major leap forward in autonomous application security (AppSec), accelerating the development of AI agents capable of understanding real enterprise risk, reasoning across complex software ecosystems, and delivering continuous, precise remediation.
According to a statement, Tromzo’s technology and engineering team will strengthen the Checkmarx One platform and expand the Checkmarx Assist family of AI agents.
“This acquisition propels Checkmarx forward on our path to redefine AppSec through agentic AI that transforms how enterprises secure all of their code, whether it is existing, human-created, or produced through AI-driven development.
“By acquiring Tromzo, we are integrating the only platform built on a true cognitive architecture capable of enterprise-grade reasoning,” said Checkmarx chief executive officer, Sandeep Johri.
Tromzo founders Harshil Parikh and Harshit Chitalia, along with the company’s entire AI engineering team, will join Checkmarx’s product and engineering organisation.
“We built Tromzo with a singular mission: accelerate remediation of the risks that truly matter. By combining our deep reasoning agents with Checkmarx’s reach, scale, and market leadership, we are delivering the only solution that lets enterprise security teams move fast with enterprise-grade control,” said Parikh.
Tromzo’s capabilities are designed to reduce risk and increase productivity by enabling automated remediation and providing engineering managers and AppSec leaders full visibility without slowing software delivery.
Together, Checkmarx and Tromzo aim to empower enterprises adopt AI coding tools with confidence, supported by agentic AI security solutions that safeguard every line of code from creation through deployment.
