# Shift Left

As software development continues to accelerate, most critical vulnerabilities are unfortunately discovered only after deployment, leaving applications exposed and increasing risk significantly. Traditional build-time security measures alone are insufficient, often failing to catch vulnerabilities that manifest uniquely within runtime contexts. Consequently, organizations need robust runtime protection that not only secures deployed applications but also intelligently informs earlier stages of the software development lifecycle.

Raven’s shift-left feature addresses this critical gap by integrating comprehensive runtime protection directly into CI/CD pipelines, harnessing predictive capabilities that leverage real-time insights and behavioral analysis of deployed applications. By proactively analyzing current runtime behavior, potential vulnerabilities that would typically evade conventional build-time checks can now be detected early and reliably. These context-aware, precise security policies can be applied broadly across an organization, customized for specific departments, or tailored for individual workloads, significantly enhancing security posture while streamlining the development and deployment processes.

## Shift-left with Protect Right

### Early Detection With Runtime Context

Detect vulnerabilities before code hits production.

### Customizable Security Policies

Tailor policies to specific teams, services or workloads.

### Context-Aware

Reduce false positives and make enforcement more relevant and efficient.
