Aikido Security, the unified security platform for code, cloud, and runtime, announced it has achieved AWS Security Competency status in the Application Security category.
It recognizes Aikido’s technical expertise and track record in helping customers secure applications that are built and run on Amazon Web Services (AWS).
“Developers are shipping more software than ever, and AI is only accelerating that. Security can’t become the bottleneck,” said Alex Llobet, Global Cloud Alliances Lead at Aikido Security.
“Achieving the AWS Security Competency gives AWS customers additional confidence that they can use Aikido to secure the full journey from code to cloud to runtime, with products built to lead their own categories, without stitching together another five disconnected tools.”
For Aikido customers, the competency confirms that the platform they use every day holds up to AWS’s own bar.

What it means for AWS customers
Achieving this competency required AWS to independently validate Aikido’s application security capabilities and confirm customers can secure their workloads on AWS infrastructure.
Aikido integrates directly with AWS environments and services including Amazon EC2, Amazon ECR, AWS Lambda, and AWS CloudFormation, giving teams visibility from development through production.
Building on Aikido’s AWS partnership
The Security Competency builds on Aikido’s existing relationship with AWS. Aikido is an AWS Partner Network member, an AWS Qualified Software vendor, available through AWS Marketplace, and AWS’s AI Code Editor Kiro’s first go-to-market security partner.
Achieving the AWS Security Competency is the latest step in that work: it gives AWS customers independent confirmation that Aikido meets AWS’s bar for application security.
