Veracode is good at identifying flaws that does not adhere to the OWASP top 10 security controls. Therefore, a Junior developer could produce code and flaws will be caught. There is also the software composition analysis that provided a view into third-party dependencies. Veracode may not be suited in cases where you need to have your scan results in a short amount of time.

Veracode
  • MPT Results should be segmented from DAST/SAST results.
  • MPT Reports should include more information on scoping and testing dates as generally provided by accounting firms conducting similar tests.
  • Vulnerability readouts should not be so hidden in the platform (It shouldn't take as many clicks to get to and view).

At this time, and we just renewed a month ago, I dont see any products out there overall that can offer what Veracode does. Yes, its not cheap by any means, but for the money its the best application security scanning tool out there.

- Almost no setup required and easy to configure - Very easy to use, intuitive UI with integrated analytics and learning portals. - Seamless to review the results, triage them, generate reports. - Security progression of the product/application is tracked via successive scans. - Privileges/Roles nicely fine grained and tightly controlled to let teams "view" only their products.

At this point, it runs well and mostly in a timely fashion. Dynamic scans take days but this may be a config issue still to be resolved.

Overall, Veracode support is helpful, community support is great, and documentation is available for self-service. Our Customer Success Manager is very helpful and reaches out regularly to see if we need assistance. We have not utilized many of the other resources offered by Veracode, however, in the future we would like to leverage secure coding training for our Development teams.

We use it as a SAS service, so really just getting our teams to mold the use of Veracode into their SDLC has been a process of years in the making. It comes down to what your teams are ready and willing to accept and change. Management is key in getting their groups on board with using it regularly. If it doesnt have management backing, your security teams have little to no influence in getting this process off the ground fully.

Mend.IO formerly WhiteSource software is a product we used prior to Vericode. It did not have all of the capabilities or depth of Vericode. Additionally, Whitesource did not offer automatic scanning as part of their product and there was no Certification program to speak of.

  • Developers are now realizing that security is there to help them, not just the people saying NO.
  • When setting up Veracode integrations we found that Devs really like their IDEs and Repos. It's like a personal choice. However, as a company, it was unwieldy without devoting people to Veracode integrations to have so many so we had to slime the available IDEs to 3 and Repos to 3, just to be able to set up and maintain the integrations.
  • Veracode is paying for itself (though through a different cost category). Our Development costs are going down and releases are getting quicker and more agile.

FossID Workbench can automatically export and import Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) reports containing license text, copyright statements, vulnerabilities and even snippet level information.Screenshot of a presentation of license-related risks in software that helps to remain compliant. Workbench detects over 2000 different licenses encountered overed years of open source auditing from strong/weak copyleft to the most obscure source-available and non-commercial licenses. Workbench helps users to understand all license related risks that could affect your products and services.Screenshot of Workbench’s comprehensive policy management that can prevent usage of strong/weak copyleft or source-available software licenses in products and services.Screenshot of VulnSnippet Finder: Snippet detection for vulnerable open source snippets. FossID’s Knowledge Base snippet detection capabilities include special detection of vulnerable open source snippets. While most security scanners assume open source vulnerabilities based on component and version, VulnSnippet Finder bases its search on the exact lines of code/snippets that make software vulnerable.
