Security Capabilities

Developer-led code security

Empower developers with real-time, actionable guidance to detect and fix vulnerabilities as code is written and reviewed, directly in their workflow.

    Static Application Security Testing (SAST)

    Our SAST engine automatically finds critical vulnerabilities in your development workflow, stopping them before they reach production.

    • Broad language support: Covers the most popular programming languages, including Java, JavaScript, Python, C++, C#, and many more.
    • Seamless workflow integration: Get immediate feedback directly in your IDE and CI/CD pipeline without context switching.
    • Rapid remediation: Resolve issues faster with clear guidance and AI-powered CodeFix suggestions.
    • Customizable policies: Enforce your organization's specific security standards by creating custom detection rules.

    Taint analysis

    Our taint analysis engine tracks data flow to find and stop critical injection vulnerabilities.

    • Find critical injection flaws: Accurately detects a wide range of vulnerabilities, including SQL injection, Cross-site scripting (XSS), SSRF, and more.
    • Minimize false positives: Utilizes sophisticated cross-file and cross-function analysis to deliver highly accurate, actionable results.
    • Framework-aware intelligence: Understands the native security controls in popular frameworks, leading to smarter and more relevant findings.

    Secrets Detection

    SonarQube detects leaked code secrets throughout your development workflow, identifying them directly in the IDE and within your CI/CD pipeline.

    • Comprehensive coverage: Finds API keys, passwords, and security tokens with hundreds of patterns covering all popular cloud providers and services.
    • High-fidelity scanning: Goes beyond basic pattern matching, using a powerful combination of regular expressions and semantic analysis to minimize false positives.
    • Customizable rules: Easily define your own patterns to detect organization-specific secrets for internal applications and private services in the Enterprise Edition.
    • Shift-left detection: Get immediate feedback directly in your IDE, allowing you to remove secrets before they are ever committed to the repository.

    Infrastructure as Code (IaC) scanning

    Find and fix Infrastructure as Code (IaC) misconfigurations before they reach production to secure your cloud.

    • Broad IaC coverage: Scans popular tools including Terraform, CloudFormation, Kubernetes, Azure Resource Manager (ARM), and Ansible.
    • Identify key risks: Catches critical security issues like overly permissive access, publicly exposed services, and insecure defaults.
    • Actionable remediation: Get clear, precise results with step-by-step guidance to help you fix misconfigurations quickly and efficiently.

    ADVANCED SECURITY

    Advanced SAST

    Advanced SAST helps identify deeper and more complex vulnerabilities due to the interaction of your application code with third-party (open-source) code.

    • Dependency-aware scanning: Traces data flows not just through your application, but deep into the third-party libraries it relies on.
    • Uncover hidden vulnerabilities: Cross-file taint analysis that goes deep into third-party libraries for detecting hard to find vulnerabilities.
    • Effortless and fast: Runs automatically with zero configuration and no performance overhead, delivering quick and accurate results.
    • Language support: Currently available for Java, C#, JavaScript, and TypeScript.

    Software Composition Analysis (SCA)

    Secure your open-source dependencies by finding vulnerabilities, managing licenses, and inventorying your software supply chain.

    • Vulnerability detection: Automatically find, track, and prioritize known vulnerabilities (CVEs) within your third-party components.
    • License compliance: Check for and flag incompatible or unapproved licenses in your dependencies to avoid legal and compliance risks.
    • Software bill of materials (SBOM): Generate a complete and accurate inventory of every component in your software for essential transparency and security audits.
