Conviso Application Security

Conviso Application Security provides a cloud-based application security management platform that consolidates static and dynamic testing, code review, penetration testing, and vulnerability prioritization into a single workflow for secure software development lifecycle management. In 2020, after 14 years in the Brazilian market, Conviso acquired N-Stalker, absorbing N-Stalker’s Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) and Web Application Firewall (WAF) technology into what is now marketed as the Conviso Platform — which is why this profile covers the combined, currently operating entity rather than N-Stalker as a standalone company.

Founded in 2008 and headquartered in Curitiba, Brazil, Conviso has grown to roughly 51-200 employees and serves customers including some of Brazil’s largest financial institutions, alongside a broader customer base the company says spans more than 30 countries following the N-Stalker acquisition. The company describes itself as privately held with no disclosed institutional venture funding, having grown through its consulting-and-platform hybrid model and the N-Stalker deal rather than external capital raises.

Conviso competes with global application security platforms (Veracode, Checkmarx, Snyk) but has built its strongest position in Latin America, particularly in the financial sector. Reported figures such as revenue "doubling" after the N-Stalker acquisition come from company and aggregator sources rather than audited financials, and no independent benchmark comparing Conviso Platform’s detection accuracy to global competitors was found.
