Bring Your Backlog to Zero Without Leaving Risk Behind.
Your AppSec backlog was already too big. Now AI-generated code is introducing more vulnerabilities, Claude Mythos has exposed risks existing tools can miss, and attackers are exploiting flaws faster. Financial institutions can’t afford to ignore hidden risk, but uncovering more of it only adds to a backlog their teams already struggle to manage.
Checkmarx breaks that cycle. By connecting prevention and high-fidelity detection with intelligent prioritization and accelerated remediation, Checkmarx helps financial institutions uncover more real risk and take their backlog all the way to zero, without compromising governance or control.
Powered by Anthropic models through Amazon Bedrock, at predictable cost.
Turn the AI Security Timeline Into Your Advantage.
FS-ISAC’s latest guidance to the sector is direct: meet AI-speed threats with AI-speed defense. See how Checkmarx helps financial institutions do exactly that in a working conversation with the team building it.
In its new Sector Risk Advisory, FS-ISAC – the industry body more than 5,000 financial institutions across 70+ countries rely on – describes how frontier AI has compressed the gap between finding a vulnerability and exploiting it from weeks to hours. The guidance is practical about the answer: its recommendation calls for using AI models for risk identification and remediation.
That is exactly what Checkmarx Fusion was built to do. See below what AI-speed defense looks like inside a financial institution’s environment and how to bring it into yours.
What Backlog Zero Means for Financial Services
Three problems are making backlog zero harder to reach:
Complete Visibility Across Critical Financial Systems
Uncover known and novel vulnerabilities across core banking applications, digital channels, and partner ecosystems without overwhelming security teams with false positives.
Close the Gap Between Discovery and Resolution
Reduce the time vulnerabilities remain exposed, even as AI accelerates development, increases findings, and gives attackers less time to exploit them.
Maintain Control and Accountability at Every Step
Know what was found, what was fixed, and what remains at risk, with the visibility, traceability, and audit-ready evidence financial institutions need.
Eliminating Your Backlog Takes More Than Better Detection
Clearing a backlog once isn’t enough. Financial institutions need to prevent it from building up again as applications evolve and new code ships. Checkmarx keeps backlog at zero with a continuous, governed process that scales across complex application portfolios while maintaining visibility, accountability, and control.
Built with Anthropic on Amazon Bedrock, Checkmarx brings frontier AI reasoning into that process with model flexibility, predictable costs, and sensitive source code protected within your AWS environment.
How Checkmarx Helps
Next-Gen SAST and Findings Analysis Engine
Next-Gen SAST’s hybrid engine provides broad language and framework coverage across core policy, billing, and claims systems to find risk that traditional scanners miss. The Findings Analysis Engine (FAE) combines results from hybrid scans into a single validated view, separating exploitable risk from noise, so wider coverage doesn’t mean more false alarms.
Checkmarx Fusion (Anthropic on Amazon Bedrock)
Layers several curated, research-validated frontier AI-models onto Next-Gen SAST’s hybrid engine to detect novel vulnerabilities with no known rule, prior CVE, or signature. It’s model-agnostic by design, so you’re never locked into a single approach.
ASPM and Risk Orchestration
Correlates code, API, OSS, and partner risk across one insurance workflow, assigning every finding a clear owner across internal, offshore, and vendor teams — with decision history as evidence.
Developer Assist and Triage & Remediation Assist
Developer Assist catches risk at creation; Triage Assist makes contextual decisions on eligible findings; Remediation Assist delivers review-ready guidance in the pull request — so verified risk reaches the right owner with a safe review path.
SCA and API Security
Brings open-source and partner dependencies, API inventory, and runtime exposure into one risk picture — cutting through the fast-changing sprawl created by claims, underwriting, and distribution integrations.
