SecPortal vs OX Security
delivery workspace vs developer-first ASPM
OX Security is a developer-first Application Security Posture Management (ASPM) platform that maps an AppSec context graph spanning code, dependencies, pipelines, and runtime, ingests output from third-party SAST, SCA, secrets, IaC, container, and cloud-posture scanners, correlates findings against the application, the build pipeline, and the cloud workload, applies code-to-cloud lineage and PBOM (pipeline bill of materials) signal, and routes a prioritised remediation list to developers in the IDE, the pull request, and the ticketing tool. The buyer assumption is that the scanners are already deployed and the AppSec or product security team needs a developer-first context layer above them. SecPortal is a different shape: scanning, manual finding entry, AI report generation, branded client portal, and the engagement record live inside one workspace. This page is the side-by-side for buyers comparing a developer-first ASPM above an existing scanner stack to a delivery workspace that scans, reports, and delivers on its own.

SecPortal vs OX Security: delivery workspace vs developer-first ASPM
OX Security is one of the leading platforms in the developer-first Application Security Posture Management (ASPM) category. The platform maps an AppSec context graph that spans code, dependencies, pipelines, and runtime, ingests output from third-party SAST, SCA, secrets, IaC, container, and cloud-posture scanners, correlates findings against the application, the build pipeline, and the cloud workload, applies code-to-cloud lineage and PBOM (pipeline bill of materials) signal, and routes a prioritised remediation list to developers in the IDE, the pull request, and the ticketing tool. The buyer assumption is that the scanners are already deployed and the AppSec or product security team needs a developer-first context layer above them.
SecPortal is a different category. SecPortal is a security delivery workspace that carries the engagement, the findings, the scanning, the AI report, the branded client portal, and the invoice all on one tenant. The buyer is a penetration testing firm, an MSSP, a consultancy, an AppSec team, a vulnerability management team, or an in-house security function that ships work to clients or stakeholders. If you are comparing a developer-first ASPM above an existing scanner stack to a delivery workspace that scans, reports, and delivers on its own, this page is the side-by-side. The adjacent comparisons buyers in the ASPM category often evaluate alongside are SecPortal vs ArmorCode, SecPortal vs Cycode, SecPortal vs Phoenix Security, SecPortal vs Apiiro and SecPortal vs Aikido.
Where OX Security stops for delivery and engagement work
These are not OX-specific criticisms; they are properties of a developer-first ASPM context layer when you compare it to running scoped engagements or a scanner-plus-findings programme on a single workspace.
Built as a developer-first AppSec context graph, not a delivery workspace
OX Security is a developer-first Application Security Posture Management (ASPM) platform that maps an AppSec context graph spanning code, dependencies, pipelines, and runtime, ingests output from third-party SAST, SCA, secrets, IaC, container, and cloud-posture scanners, correlates findings against the application, the build pipeline, and the cloud workload, applies code-to-cloud lineage and PBOM (pipeline bill of materials) signal, and routes a prioritised remediation list to developers in the IDE, the pull request, and the ticketing tool. The buyer assumption is that the scanners are already deployed and the AppSec or product security team needs a developer-first context layer above them. SecPortal is the opposite shape: scanning, manual finding entry, AI report generation, branded client portal, and the engagement record live inside one workspace.
No engagement, scope, or deliverable model
OX Security is organised around the AppSec context graph, the contributing scanner, the pipeline event, and the developer remediation campaign rather than around a scoped engagement with a kickoff, a defined target list, a final report, and a closure date. If the work you ship is a pentest, a vulnerability assessment, an external attack surface programme, an AppSec code review, or a compliance audit with a contract scope and a deliverable, OX Security does not carry that record.
No branded client portal on your subdomain
OX Security output lives inside the OX console and inside developer surfaces (IDE, pull request, ticketing tool). There is no white-label portal a security firm or in-house security team can hand to an external client or to a stakeholder business unit under their own brand. SecPortal serves a branded client portal on the tenant subdomain so every finding, retest, remediation thread, and report download lives under your name rather than under a vendor name.
No native external, authenticated web, or end-to-end DAST scanning
OX Security is a developer-first context layer above scanners. The platform reads code repositories and pipelines, ingests dependency and container manifests, and correlates against runtime cloud-posture signal, but it does not run its own external vulnerability scans across an internet-facing perimeter or its own authenticated web testing across a logged-in application. The buyer is expected to license those scanners separately and ingest their output. SecPortal runs 16 external scanner modules, 17 authenticated web scanner modules, and SAST plus SCA via Semgrep against connected repositories on the same workspace as findings, reports, and delivery.
No AI-generated executive summaries, technical writeups, or remediation narratives
OX Security produces AppSec posture dashboards, code-to-cloud context views, prioritisation lists, PBOM evidence views, and developer remediation campaigns, but it does not draft executive summaries, technical pentest writeups, or narrative remediation roadmaps that go to a board, an auditor, or an external client. SecPortal uses Claude to draft executive, technical, and remediation deliverables from the live findings record so the deliverable goes out without separate writeup time.
Sales-led pricing tied to applications, repositories, and developers
OX Security pricing is sales-led and typically licensed by application count, repository count, developer or contributor count, and connector or scanner count, with a contract floor that fits enterprise procurement rather than self-service onboarding. SecPortal pricing is published on the website with a free plan, monthly Pro and Team tiers, and no annual contract floor for the Pro and Team tiers.
How a developer-first ASPM and a delivery workspace see the same problem differently
Developer-first ASPM is a useful category framing, but the buyer should be clear-eyed about what a context layer above many scanner contracts gives you and what it costs. The contrast below is between an ASPM platform that derives value from mapping an AppSec context graph across many separately licensed scanners and a delivery workspace that holds the engagement record on the tenant where the operators run.
Developer-first ASPM platforms map the AppSec context graph above an existing scanner stack
OX Security and similar developer-first ASPM platforms (Apiiro for code-to-runtime risk graph mapping, Cycode for SCM-anchored code-graph scanning, Phoenix Security for risk-based orchestration with threat intelligence, ArmorCode for connector-aggregator scope, Aikido for all-in-one developer-first bundling, Endor Labs for SCA reachability, Snyk for developer-first SAST and SCA bundling) start from the assumption that the AppSec, container, cloud, and infrastructure scanners are already in place. The economic value comes from correlating output across many scanners against an AppSec context graph that spans code structure, dependency reachability, pipeline events, and cloud workload context, then routing a single prioritised backlog directly to developers in their working surface. The platform is the developer-context layer that sits above a stack of scanner contracts.
A delivery workspace owns the finding record from scan to closure
SecPortal does not assume that a developer-context layer above many separate scanner contracts is the right shape for the work. The workspace runs its own external, authenticated, and code scanning, holds the finding record, supports manual entry from a tester or reviewer, calibrates severity through CVSS 3.1 with environmental adjustment, and ships the deliverable through a branded portal on a tenant subdomain. The same record holds for a scoped pentest, a continuous vulnerability assessment, an AppSec code review, and an external attack surface programme. The finding lives where the work is done, not in a developer-context console that ends at the prioritised pull-request comment.
The right answer depends on whether scanners are already in place or need to be the platform
If the AppSec or product security team has already licensed Snyk, Veracode, Checkmarx, GitHub Advanced Security, Semgrep, Wiz, Tenable, Qualys, container scanners, and several others in parallel, has thousands of findings spread across them, and the bottleneck is correlating that signal into one prioritised remediation backlog with code-to-cloud lineage and PBOM context delivered into the developer surface, a developer-first ASPM like OX Security is the right shape. If the team needs the scanners themselves, the engagement record, the AI report, the branded portal, and the invoice on one workspace without a stack of separate scanner contracts, a delivery workspace like SecPortal is the right shape. Both can be true for different teams; one is the right shape for a given buyer at a given time.
Who each platform is the right fit for
OX Security and SecPortal solve different problems for different buyers. The honest answer is that the right tool depends on whether you are correlating output across an existing scanner stack with a developer-first context graph or running scoped engagements and findings on one workspace.
OX Security fits large enterprises with an existing AppSec and cloud scanner stack
If you are a large enterprise, the AppSec and product security teams operate Snyk, Veracode, Checkmarx, GitHub Advanced Security, Semgrep, Wiz, Tenable, Qualys, container scanners, secrets scanners, IaC scanners, and cloud posture tools in parallel, the asset surface is hundreds or thousands of applications and microservices, and the bottleneck is correlating findings across that stack into one backlog with code-to-cloud lineage and PBOM evidence routed into the developer surface, OX Security was built for that developer-first context shape. The buyer assumption is one context layer that sits above the scanner stack and routes a unified backlog to developers through the IDE, the pull request, and the ticketing tool.
SecPortal fits teams who want scanning, findings, reports, and delivery in one workspace
If you are a penetration testing firm, an MSSP, a consultancy, an AppSec team, a vulnerability management team, or an in-house security function that wants the scanner, the finding record, the AI report, the branded portal, and the invoice all on one tenant, SecPortal carries that lifecycle without forcing the team to license separate scanners and ingest their output through a developer-context layer.
SecPortal fits buyers who deliver findings to clients, stakeholders, or auditors
If you ship reports to external clients, business unit owners, or auditors, and every finding, retest, remediation thread, and report download has to live under your brand rather than under a vendor console, SecPortal is the workspace that holds that record. Findings can still be imported from Nessus, Burp Suite, or CSV when scanners outside SecPortal are part of the picture, alongside SecPortal native external, authenticated, and code scanning.
