How do VibeGuard and VibeSec differ?

OX VibeSec works at the prompt: it analyzes what the developer asked for, identifies the risks the resulting code is likely to contain and sends security instructions to the agent before code is generated. Legit VibeGuard works at the IDE and the endpoint: it scans generated code with SAST and SCA, attaches security instruction files to assistants, keeps secrets out of prompts, and in version 2.0 discovers agents on the machine and enforces command and MCP policy. OX supports Claude Code, Cursor, Kiro and VS Code with Copilot; Legit names Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Windsurf and Amazon Q Developer; Codex: supported (per Legit).

How do they compare on scanning and secrets?

OX Code covers SAST, SCA, secrets, IaC, containers and API scanning, with SBOM drift detection. Legit covers SAST, SCA and secrets and also pulls in findings from existing scanners and de-duplicates them. Legit's secrets coverage extends to Jira, Confluence, Slack and personal GitHub accounts.

How do they compare on price?

OX publishes a pricing unit per product, including per AI user for VibeSec, and its terms allow free use up to 9 developer contributions. Legit lists an all-modules, 100-user bundle on AWS Marketplace at $60,000 for 12 months. Neither lists prices on its own site.

Which should you choose?

Choose OX Security if you want to change what the agent writes at the prompt stage and prefer buying agent security per AI user. Choose Legit Security if you want enforcement on developer endpoints across every agent, plus one queue for findings from all your scanners.
