Scans codebases across 20+ package managers (npm, pip, Maven, NuGet, Gradle, Composer, etc.) by parsing dependency manifests and lock files, then constructs a transitive dependency graph to identify all direct and indirect open-source components. Uses fingerprinting and version matching against a continuously-updated vulnerability database to detect known CVEs, license violations, and outdated packages without requiring source code compilation.
Unique: Maintains a proprietary vulnerability database updated in real-time from multiple sources (NVD, GitHub Security Advisories, vendor disclosures) with fingerprinting that handles version aliasing and package renames across ecosystems, enabling detection of vulnerabilities missed by simpler string-matching approaches
vs alternatives: Broader package manager coverage (20+) and faster vulnerability detection than open-source tools like OWASP Dependency-Check due to curated database and fingerprint-based matching rather than CVE ID string search
Analyzes detected vulnerabilities and generates pull requests that upgrade vulnerable dependencies to patched versions, using semantic versioning constraints and compatibility analysis to minimize breaking changes. The system evaluates multiple upgrade paths (patch, minor, major) and prioritizes based on risk severity, testing impact, and maintainer activity, then commits changes with detailed changelog and remediation rationale.
Unique: Uses machine-learning-based compatibility scoring that analyzes historical upgrade patterns, test pass rates, and maintainer activity to predict which version upgrades are least likely to introduce regressions, rather than simply recommending the latest available version
vs alternatives: Generates more intelligent upgrade recommendations than Dependabot because it factors in compatibility risk and maintainer responsiveness, not just semantic versioning rules, resulting in fewer failed CI builds and merge conflicts
Exposes REST APIs to programmatically query vulnerability data, scan results, and compliance metrics, enabling custom integrations with enterprise security tools (SIEM, ticketing systems, dashboards). Supports bulk export of vulnerability data in multiple formats (JSON, CSV, SARIF) for integration with downstream security orchestration platforms. Enables organizations to build custom reports and dashboards on top of Mend.io data using their preferred BI tools.
Unique: Provides comprehensive REST APIs with support for multiple export formats (JSON, CSV, SARIF) and fine-grained filtering, enabling deep integration with enterprise security platforms without requiring custom parsing
vs alternatives: Offers more flexible data export options than Snyk or Dependabot, with native SARIF support for integration with GitHub Advanced Security and other SARIF-compatible tools
Performs deep static code analysis by parsing source code into abstract syntax trees (ASTs) across 15+ programming languages, then applies pattern-matching rules to detect security vulnerabilities such as SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), hardcoded credentials, insecure cryptography, and unsafe deserialization. Rules are context-aware and track data flow through function calls and variable assignments to reduce false positives compared to regex-based scanning.
Unique: Combines AST-based semantic analysis with taint tracking to follow data flow through assignments and function calls, enabling detection of vulnerabilities that simple pattern matching would miss, while maintaining language-specific context awareness for reduced false positives
vs alternatives: More accurate than regex-based SAST tools (SonarQube, Checkmarx) for complex data flow vulnerabilities because it understands code structure and variable scope, but slower than lightweight linters due to full AST parsing and taint analysis
Scans Docker and OCI container images by extracting and analyzing each layer's filesystem, identifying vulnerable packages installed in the base OS (Alpine, Ubuntu, CentOS, etc.) and application dependencies within the image. Performs SCA on package managers present in the image and cross-references against vulnerability databases, providing a complete inventory of all software components and their known vulnerabilities with remediation guidance at the Dockerfile or base image level.
Unique: Performs layer-by-layer extraction and analysis rather than scanning the flattened image, enabling identification of which Dockerfile instruction introduced vulnerable packages and providing targeted remediation (e.g., 'upgrade base image from ubuntu:20.04 to ubuntu:22.04')
vs alternatives: More comprehensive than Trivy or Grype because it analyzes application-level dependencies within the image (not just OS packages) and provides Dockerfile-level remediation guidance, though slower due to full layer extraction
Analyzes all detected open-source dependencies and their associated licenses (from SPDX database, package metadata, and source code inspection), then evaluates compliance against configurable policies that define approved/restricted licenses, copyleft requirements, and commercial usage restrictions. Generates compliance reports and can block builds or flag PRs if policy violations are detected, enabling organizations to enforce licensing standards across teams.
Unique: Combines automated license detection with configurable policy engines that support exception workflows and risk-based categorization (e.g., 'GPL is allowed in non-commercial projects but restricted in commercial products'), rather than simple allow/deny lists
vs alternatives: More flexible than FOSSA or Black Duck because it allows custom policy rules and exception workflows, enabling organizations to balance open-source adoption with legal risk rather than enforcing one-size-fits-all policies
Uses machine learning models trained on vulnerability exploitation patterns, CVSS scores, exploit availability, and organizational context to rank detected vulnerabilities by actual risk rather than severity alone. Factors in whether exploits are publicly available, if the vulnerable code path is reachable in the application, the organization's threat model, and historical patch adoption rates to provide context-aware prioritization that helps teams focus on the most critical issues first.
Unique: Combines CVSS scoring with exploit availability data, organizational threat modeling, and patch adoption history in a machine-learning model to produce context-aware risk scores that account for real-world exploitation likelihood rather than theoretical vulnerability severity
vs alternatives: More actionable than static CVSS scoring because it incorporates exploit availability and organizational context, but less accurate than manual security review for organization-specific threat models due to reliance on historical training data
Monitors repositories and container registries on a configurable schedule (continuous, daily, weekly) for new vulnerabilities, license violations, and policy violations, then automatically triggers remediation workflows (PR generation, notifications, build blocking) based on severity thresholds and organizational policies. Integrates with CI/CD systems to enforce security gates that prevent vulnerable code or images from reaching production.
Unique: Integrates monitoring, detection, and remediation into a single workflow that respects organizational policies and CI/CD constraints, automatically generating PRs only when policies allow and blocking builds when violations exceed thresholds, rather than requiring manual intervention for each vulnerability
vs alternatives: More comprehensive than Dependabot because it covers SCA, SAST, and container scanning in a unified workflow with policy-driven automation, though requires more configuration to set up correctly
+3 more capabilities
Evaluates LLM outputs against curated question sets spanning three distinct hazard domains (biosecurity, cybersecurity, chemical security) using domain-expert-validated benchmarks. The assessment framework maps model responses to risk levels within each domain, enabling quantitative measurement of dangerous capability presence. Responses are scored against rubrics developed by security domain experts to identify whether models can produce actionable harmful information.
Unique: Combines expert-validated questions across three distinct security domains (biosecurity, cybersecurity, chemical) into a unified benchmark framework, rather than treating each domain separately. Uses domain-expert rubrics for scoring rather than automated classifiers, ensuring nuanced assessment of harmful capability presence.
vs alternatives: More comprehensive than single-domain safety benchmarks (e.g., ToxiGen for toxicity) because it measures dangerous knowledge across multiple hazard categories simultaneously, enabling holistic safety evaluation.
Provides standardized evaluation infrastructure to measure the effectiveness of unlearning techniques (methods that remove dangerous capabilities from trained models) by comparing model performance before and after unlearning interventions. The framework isolates the impact of unlearning by holding the benchmark constant while varying the model state, enabling quantitative assessment of whether dangerous knowledge has been successfully suppressed.
Unique: Provides a standardized evaluation harness specifically designed for unlearning research, with built-in comparison logic and side-effect detection. Unlike generic benchmarks, it explicitly measures delta between model states and flags unintended capability loss.
vs alternatives: More rigorous than ad-hoc unlearning evaluation because it enforces consistent benchmark administration, statistical testing, and side-effect measurement across all methods being compared.
WMDP scores higher at 63/100 vs Mend.io at 55/100. Mend.io leads on quality, while WMDP is stronger on ecosystem.

Implements a structured scoring framework where model responses to dangerous knowledge questions are evaluated against expert-developed rubrics that assess the degree of hazard (e.g., specificity, actionability, completeness of harmful information). Responses are scored on multi-point scales (typically 0-4 or 0-5) rather than binary pass/fail, capturing nuance in how dangerous a model's output actually is. Rubrics are domain-specific (biosecurity, cybersecurity, chemical) and developed by subject matter experts to ensure validity.
Unique: Uses domain-expert-developed multi-point rubrics rather than automated classifiers or binary labels, enabling nuanced assessment of dangerous knowledge severity. Rubrics are calibrated to distinguish between vague, incomplete, and highly actionable harmful information.
vs alternatives: More interpretable and defensible than black-box classifiers because rubric criteria are explicit and expert-validated; enables stakeholders to understand why a response received a particular score.
Analyzes patterns in how dangerous knowledge correlates across the three benchmark domains (biosecurity, cybersecurity, chemical security), identifying whether models that excel at suppressing one type of hazard tend to suppress others. The analysis uses statistical correlation and clustering techniques to reveal whether dangerous capabilities are independent or coupled in model behavior. This enables understanding of whether unlearning interventions have domain-specific or global effects.
Unique: Explicitly analyzes relationships between dangerous knowledge across domains rather than treating each domain independently. Enables discovery of whether hazards are coupled or independent in model behavior.
vs alternatives: Provides deeper insight than single-domain benchmarks by revealing how safety properties interact across different hazard categories, informing more effective unlearning strategies.
Manages the creation, validation, and versioning of benchmark questions and rubrics through a structured curation pipeline involving domain experts, adversarial testing, and iterative refinement. The pipeline ensures questions are sufficiently difficult to elicit dangerous knowledge without being unrealistic, and rubrics are calibrated through inter-rater agreement studies. Version control enables tracking of benchmark evolution and ensures reproducibility across research papers.
Unique: Implements a formal curation pipeline with expert validation and inter-rater agreement checks, rather than ad-hoc question collection. Versioning enables reproducible research and transparent tracking of benchmark evolution.
vs alternatives: More rigorous than informal benchmarks because it enforces expert review, inter-rater validation, and version control, reducing bias and enabling reproducible comparisons across papers.
Provides a unified interface for evaluating diverse LLM architectures (open-source models, API-based models, fine-tuned variants) by abstracting away implementation differences. The abstraction handles API calls (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.), local inference (Hugging Face, Ollama), and custom model serving, enabling consistent benchmark administration across heterogeneous model types. This enables fair comparison between models with different deployment modalities.
Unique: Abstracts away differences between API-based, local, and custom-deployed models through a unified interface, enabling fair comparison without reimplementing benchmark logic for each model type.
vs alternatives: More flexible than model-specific benchmarks because it supports any LLM architecture without code changes, reducing friction for researchers evaluating new models.
Implements rigorous statistical testing to determine whether differences in dangerous knowledge scores between models or unlearning methods are statistically significant or due to random variation. Uses techniques like bootstrap confidence intervals, permutation tests, and effect size estimation to quantify uncertainty in benchmark results. This prevents overconfident claims about safety improvements that may not be robust.
Unique: Integrates formal statistical testing into the benchmark evaluation pipeline rather than relying on point estimates, ensuring claims about safety improvements are statistically justified.
vs alternatives: More rigorous than informal comparisons because it quantifies uncertainty and prevents overconfident claims about safety improvements that may not be robust to sampling variation.
Employs adversarial testing techniques to validate that benchmark questions reliably elicit dangerous knowledge and cannot be easily circumvented by prompt engineering. Red-teamers attempt to find questions that fail to elicit dangerous knowledge or rubric edge cases, and the benchmark is iteratively refined based on findings. This ensures the benchmark is robust to adversarial adaptation and captures genuine dangerous capabilities rather than surface-level patterns.
Unique: Incorporates formal red-teaming into the benchmark validation pipeline rather than assuming questions are robust, ensuring the benchmark remains effective against adversarial adaptation.
vs alternatives: More robust than static benchmarks because it actively searches for evasion techniques and iteratively refines questions, reducing the risk that models can circumvent the benchmark through prompt engineering.
