Ares vs Claude Security

Traditional scanners detect. Ares reasons, chains, and validates autonomously.

Claude Security and Ares solve different halves of the same problem. Claude Security reads your source code, flags likely vulnerabilities, and suggests patches your developers can review. It is a solid defensive tool for teams that own their codebase. Ares works from the other side. She attacks your running APIs, web apps, and mobile apps the way a real adversary would, with no source code required, and proves every finding with a working exploit. Claude Security tells you what might be wrong in the code. Ares shows you what an attacker can actually do in production.

Autonomous exploitation of running applications

No, analyzes code, does not attack live systems

Yes, exploits deployed APIs, web, and mobile apps

Findings proven with a working exploit

No, validated by re-reading the code

Yes, every finding is confirmed by real exploitation

Runtime API and mobile attack surface coverage

No, source-level analysis only
