Frequently Asked Questions
Static application security testing (SAST) scans proprietary code written by your developers for security vulnerabilities. Software composition analysis (SCA) scans open source libraries and 3rd-party components for security vulnerabilities, license risks, and other types of risks.
Because modern applications comprise proprietary code, open source libraries, and 3rd-party components, application security programs typically utilize both SAST and SCA to provide more insights to the codebase, and ensure the quality and security of the software.
A software bill of materials (SBOM) is a file that lists all the components within an application, including open source and 3rd-party components.
SBOMs help organizations see the makeup of an application to understand, assess, and address the security risk across all of its underlying components.
Checkmarx SCA can be easily integrated as part of your CI/CD pipeline, seamlessly working with a wide variety of CI/CD tools, including Jenkins, Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, TeamCity, Bamboo.
Checkmarx SCA also integrates with all the most popular IDEs, including Visual Studio, VS Code, JetBrains, and Eclipse.
Checkmarx SCA is available as part of the Checkmarx One platform. Developers can also get it through a free plugin within JetBrains IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate and Visual Studio Code.
