Security teams are drowning in alerts, and AI might not be the answer everyone thinks it is.

Many vendors are betting that AI will solve this problem by triaging alerts at scale. But the reality?

Can Claude Opus 4.5 actually build a secure, fully functional note-taking app? In this video, I challenge the latest Claude model to create an app with real features — create, edit, update, delete, plus basic security — and see if the code holds up in practice. This is a real test of how far AI can go in building usable software.

Most organizations don’t lack intent; they lack a clear understanding of what’s deployed today, what gaps matter most, and how to turn guidance into enforceable baselines. Reach connects to your existing security tools and automatically maps configurations to established maturity models like CISA’s Zero Trust Maturity Model 2.0 — producing a real-time posture assessment across identity, device, endpoint, email, and network with no surveys or guesswork.
