# AI Guardian

AI Guardian is an innovative security tool designed to identify and resolve security vulnerabilities in your code using artificial intelligence. It seamlessly integrates with your GitHub repositories, thoroughly scans your source code and dependencies, and assists in vulnerability remediation by automatically generating pull requests. No prior security expertise is needed.

#### Who Should Use AI Guardian?

AI Guardian is useful for:

* **DevOps Teams** – To integrate automated security checks in CI/CD workflows.
* **Software Engineers** – To receive quick feedback on the code vulnerabilities.
* **Security Teams** – To monitor and remediate risks across the repositories.
* **Product Owners** – To optimize security in delivery while maintaining the development speed.
* **Platform Architects** – To Incorporate security into platform workflows. 

Before proceeding, it is important to understand the following key terms:
