Aim Security
Aim Security is an enterprise AI security platform for organizations rolling out public AI tools, private AI apps, and custom agents without losing visibility or control. The product covers shadow AI discovery, runtime protection for internal AI workloads, and AI security posture management across the development lifecycle. Security and compliance teams at large enterprises use it to govern how employees interact with tools like Microsoft Copilot and coding agents such as Cursor.
The platform organizes around three core use cases: securing employee use of public AI applications, protecting private AI apps and agents with an AI Firewall, and managing agentic AI development risk through AI-SPM. Aim's research team publicly disclosed EchoLeak (CVE-2025-32711), a zero-click vulnerability in Microsoft 365 Copilot, underscoring the threat surface the product targets.
Cato Networks acquired Aim Security in September 2025 as its first corporate acquisition. The aim.security domain now redirects to Cato Networks, and Aim capabilities are being converged into the Cato SASE Cloud Platform with a migration path for existing standalone customers planned for early 2026.

What happened to Aim Security?
Cato Networks acquired Aim Security on September 3, 2025. Cato stated it would offer Aim capabilities as part of the Cato SASE Cloud Platform in early 2026 and provide a seamless migration path for customers who deployed the standalone Aim solution.
What does Aim Security protect?
Aim Security covers three use cases: securing employee use of public AI applications, protecting private AI applications and agents with an AI Firewall, and securing the agentic AI development lifecycle through AI Security Posture Management (AI-SPM).
Does Aim Security support Microsoft Copilot and coding agents?
Yes. Aim Security is designed to let employees securely use public and enterprise AI agents such as Microsoft Copilot, develop with AI coding agents such as Cursor, and work with local agents connected through Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers.
What is the Aim AI Firewall?
The Aim AI Firewall secures internal AI applications and agents against runtime AI attacks. It enforces corporate security and governance policies on interactions between users, AI agents, and internal AI applications and models, whether deployed on premises or in a cloud data center.
What is EchoLeak and how is Aim Security connected?
EchoLeak (CVE-2025-32711) is a zero-click AI vulnerability in Microsoft 365 Copilot that Aim Security's research team uncovered and publicly reported. It illustrates the class of runtime AI threats the platform is built to address.
