When to Use Each Tool

Choose based on your specific security requirements and workflow.

Choose Auditor Core If...

You need complete visibility into existing security risks
You're conducting a security audit or due diligence
You need detailed reports for compliance requirements
You're onboarding a legacy codebase with unknown risks
You want to measure progress over time with baselines

Explore Auditor Core

Choose Sentinel If...

You need a deterministic security gate in CI/CD
You want to prevent specific risks from entering codebase
You operate in air-gapped or highly restricted environments
You need zero telemetry and complete privacy
You want to enforce team policies automatically

Explore Sentinel

Use Both For...

Comprehensive security program with defense in depth
Audit existing code while preventing new risks
Enterprise-grade security across SDLC
Regulatory compliance with enforcement
Maximum protection for critical infrastructure
