Two products are in scope. AI Software Governance Platform unifies secure-coding training (Learning, with 600+ hours of content across 70+ languages including AI/LLM security) with AI governance and Trust Score skill measurement. Trust Agent is the standalone AI traceability product providing commit-level AI usage visibility, LLM security benchmarking, MCP discovery, and policy controls. Both feed the same Trust Score, and Trust Agent can be added to the platform once AI assistant use is widespread.
Secure Code Warrior portfolio
Secure Code Warrior measures developer secure-coding skill and governs AI coding tools.
AI Software Governance Platform combining secure-coding training with AI governance, plus Trust Agent for commit-level AI traceability. With Merito, training rolls out cohort by cohort, alongside the governance policies and the Trust Score program that measures skill and AI tool usage.
Why Merito for Secure Code Warrior
Secure Code Warrior takes a program, not just seats, with developer cohorts, AI governance policies and a Trust Score baseline.
Secure Code Warrior is the developer-training-first AppSec vendor that expanded into AI governance as developer adoption of AI code assistants accelerated. The original Learning Platform delivers 600+ hours of secure-coding content across 70+ languages and frameworks (including AI/LLM security topics), with hands-on labs, structured learning paths, objective assessments, and gamified competitions. Trust Score measures developer secure-coding capability over time.
AI Software Governance Platform is the unified product that brings secure-coding training together with AI governance under one console. Learning is bundled as a capability block inside the AI Software Governance Platform rather than as a separate product. The platform addresses both the skill gap (developer secure-coding capability) and the AI tool adoption gap (visibility into AI coding assistants and LLMs influencing the codebase).
Trust Agent is the standalone AI traceability product that makes AI influence in software development visible, attributable, and enforceable at the point of commit. The product provides commit-level AI usage visibility, LLM security benchmarking, MCP discovery for tracking AI agent connections, and Trust Score integration that correlates developer skill with AI usage. Generally available March 2026 after September 2025 beta.
Getting value from Secure Code Warrior takes a program, not just seats. We deploy the AI Software Governance Platform, configure Learning content against the customer's developer cohorts, set up Trust Agent commit-level observability, and roll out the Trust Score-driven secure-coding capability program across engineering teams.
