AppsTech Aegis-1

Security intelligence that runs inside your own network.

Aegis-1 is our flagship security AI — a specialized model we engineered in-house, from the ground up, for one domain. It runs entirely on your own infrastructure, helping your team sort alerts, decide what to fix first, and ship safer code, while everything sensitive stays inside your walls.

Where it runs
Inside your own data center or private cloud — your data stays home.
What it needs
Modest hardware — typically a single GPU. Engineered lean by design.
Who decides
A person, always — to contain, patch, or approve.
In practice

Three ways Aegis-1 gets put to work.

Illustrative, anonymized examples — the industry, what we built, and the value it delivered.

Case 1 · Banking

Helping a security team handle a flood of alerts

The problem. The bank's security team was buried in alerts, spending most of the day looking things up and writing notes instead of investigating threats. Strict data rules kept public AI tools off the table.

What we built. An assistant beside the team's existing alert system, running entirely inside the bank's network. When an alert arrives, Aegis-1 drafts what happened in plain language, whether it looks like a real threat or a false alarm, relevant background, and suggested next steps drawn from the bank's own playbooks. Guardrails: it must always show its sources, it can never invent a flaw ID, and containment always waits for a person.

The team handled more alerts per shift, caught real incidents faster, and kept consistent notes for audits — as alert volume kept growing.
Case 2 · Manufacturing

Deciding what to fix first, before it's too late

The problem. Security scans turned up thousands of issues. Teams patched whatever scored highest on a raw severity scale — often the wrong things first. When a flaw hit the news, answering "are we exposed?" took days, and plant maintenance windows are rare and expensive.

What we built. An assistant layered on the plant's existing scanning tools and equipment records. Aegis-1 produces a weekly "fix these first" list with plain-language reasons, fast memos answering "this flaw is in the news — are our machines affected?", and draft repair tickets once a person signs off. The risk scoring stays in ordinary, deterministic software; Aegis-1 explains and ranks within that real data, grounded in equipment that actually exists.

Answering "are we affected?" on breaking news1–3 days~15–30 minutes
Wrong equipment names in reportsA manual spreadsheet riskBlocked automatically
Rare, costly downtime gets spent on what actually threatens production, and leadership gets fast, credible answers when a new flaw is in the news.
Case 3 · SaaS / Software

Catching security issues before code ships

The problem. Code shipped every week, but security review happened late. Automated scanners flagged so much noise that developers learned to ignore them — and company policy kept proprietary code out of public AI tools. The security team became a bottleneck.

What we built. A private assistant built into the normal code-review process. On every proposed change, Aegis-1 reviews what changed, leaves a small number of genuinely useful comments, suggests a fix and a way to test it, and can outline what could go wrong in a new service. The security team still sets severity and grants exceptions; developers still decide when to ship.

Issues get fixed while code is still cheap to change, and the company tells enterprise customers a clear story: "we review every change, privately."
Beyond the cases

More ways teams put Aegis-1 to work.

The same private model, applied across the daily work of a security operation.

Alert & log triage

Sort the day's alerts and log anomalies into "look now," "routine," and "background noise" — with the reasoning shown.

Vulnerability prioritization

Turn thousands of scan findings into a short, defensible "fix these first" list, mapped to the systems you actually run.

Secure code review

A private reviewer on every change — focused comments, suggested fixes, and a way to test them.

Incident write-ups & playbooks

First drafts of incident summaries, timelines, and response steps — grounded in your own playbooks, ready for a person to finish.

"Are we affected?" answers

When a flaw makes the news, a same-morning memo on your actual exposure — instead of a days-long scramble.

Audit-ready documentation

Consistent, sourced notes on every investigation — the paper trail your auditors and regulators ask for.

Why it matters

What you actually get.

Speed. Hours and days of routine security writing and sorting shrink to minutes.
Focus. People spend their time on real decisions instead of copy-paste and spreadsheets.
Control. The model and the data stay inside your own environment.
Trust. Every answer is grounded in your own systems and public security records — and a person always has the final say.
Cost. One modest computer serves the whole team — engineered with our low-resource methodology.

Your people stay in charge — by design

  • Every containment, patch, and code merge is approved by a person.
  • The defensive specialist is what runs in your environment.
  • Your security data, equipment lists, and source code stay inside your network.
The research behind it

Built from the ground up — and documented.

Our research paper explains why serious security demands a model designed for the domain from the first token — specialized, efficient, and governed responsibly.
