Standout features
Endpoint app: VibeGuard 2.0 was built "as a full desktop app, and not as a plugin"; it runs on the endpoint and connects automatically to coding agents.

Pros
- Governs coding agents from a desktop app on the endpoint, with anti-tampering and a central console for the security team.
- Keeps secrets out of agent sessions through a keychain-backed secrets MCP, and fixes SAST and dependency findings with agents that open pull requests.
- Highest or tied highest on Discovery
Cons
- The only published price is an AWS Marketplace bundle; there is no pricing page or free tier.
- An audit log specific to VibeGuard is not stated on the pages reviewed; Backslash Security scores higher on policy and audit.
- Pricing and trial transparency: 4 / 10, below GitHub Advanced Security at 9
Bottom line
The pick for a CISO who wants control of coding agents on every developer machine, backed by an ASPM platform; budget for a sales-led purchase.
