How It Works

From AI findings to validated security outcomes.

A complete workflow built around proof, not alert volume.

What Galen Is

Galen is Telhawk's proof engine for AI security.

Galen is the proprietary security engine behind Telhawk. It helps turn code, APIs, AI agents, access paths, and AI-generated software into structured security evidence that AI-assisted review can use to produce clearer, more actionable results.

Most AI security tools can generate findings. Galen is designed to help prove which findings matter.

Galen analyzes security-relevant relationships such as code paths, API routes, data flows, permission boundaries, missing guards, agent tool access, and remediation status. Instead of leaving teams with a long list of possible issues, Galen helps organize the evidence needed to understand what is real, why it matters, how to fix it, and whether the correction worked.

What Galen Helps Answer
Is the risk real?

Galen helps connect a finding to the affected code path, API, data flow, permission boundary, or agent action.

Why does it matter?

Galen helps show the security impact, including what data, system, user role, or workflow may be affected.

How should it be fixed?

Galen helps provide remediation context so teams can move from finding discovery to practical correction.

Did the fix work?

Galen helps validate whether the risky path, missing guard, or unsafe access condition was corrected.

Without Galen
  • Raw findings
  • More manual triage
  • Unclear proof
  • Harder prioritization
  • Fixes still need validation
With Galen
  • Structured evidence
  • Clearer security context
  • Proof-backed findings
  • Remediation guidance
  • Validation after correction

Galen gives AI security review the structured evidence it needs to move from possible issues to validated outcomes.

The full Galen workflow

01
Intake and Scope

Define the systems, code, APIs, agents, and risk questions in scope.

02
Code / API / Agent Context

Provide repository, endpoint, or agent context to ground analysis.

03
Galen Analysis

Galen maps routes, handlers, permissions, data flows, and guards.

04
Proof-Backed Findings

Each finding includes the affected path, missing control, and supporting evidence.

05
Prioritization

Findings are ordered by exploitability, exposure, and business impact.

06
Remediation Guidance

Concrete, contextual recommendations developers can act on.

07
Fix Support

Proposed corrections and review of developer-authored fixes.

08
Validation After Correction

Galen re-evaluates the code to confirm the vulnerable path is closed.

09
Exportable Reporting

Durable, audit-ready evidence packages for stakeholders and reviewers.

10
Ongoing History / Governance

Finding history and governance over AI-assisted development.
