AI-SPM vs ASPM

ASPM is application security posture across SDLC tooling. AI-SPM is the broader programme that adds asset discovery, adversarial testing, runtime gateway controls, and control-ID compliance evidence.

Problem

What AI-SPM vs ASPM really means

ASPM covers a slice of AI risk. The gap is the rest of the AI control surface: covers application source and supply chain; does not test the running AI model, agent, or gateway behaviour.

How Penaxtra approaches it

How Penaxtra closes the gap

AI-SPM is purpose-built for the full AI control surface: 11 AI asset kinds today, three-judge adversarial testing, self-hosted runtime gateway, and six-framework compliance evidence. Most customers run AI-SPM alongside ASPM rather than replacing it.

Technical capabilities

What Penaxtra adds

Asset discovery across LLM apps, agents, MCP servers, RAG, vector DBs, gateways

Self-hosted runtime gateway with Ed25519-signed policy distribution

Three judges (Anthropic, OpenAI, Google) + meta-judge consensus on every adversarial finding

Six-framework compliance mapping at control-ID level

PDF + JSON audit-evidence export with twenty-two cross-framework overlaps

Compliance mapping

Compliance coverage compared

AI-SPM evidence stands alongside ASPM findings; the two are complementary, not substitutes.
