Trend Micro Cloud One - Application Security vs. Veracode

Scenarios where it's well suited - 1) AWS cloud environments where application security and ZTN is a must. 2) One-stop-shop for centralized discovery of apps/workloads. 3) Custom reporting client needs. 4) CI/CD pipeline - easy to design DevOps cycles.

Within our organization it is clear that when a codebase is available, and in a language that Veracode supports, the use of Veracode (with a particular focus to the static scanning platform) is a great suggestion. The depth of information it can provide with respect to security flaws is valuable, with very little setup required from the developers. When a codebase is unavailable, say in the instance of third-party applications for which you are creating extensions or some form of module, then static code scanning is not an option but even then dynamic scanning (DAST) may prove to be helpful, though potentially less so.

• Easy integration with AWS environment
• holistic protection - workload and network security
• Monitoring capabilities - SIEM tools which helps in RCA analysis.

• The pipeline scan is a very fast way to scan code and inform developers if a new flaw is introduced by their pull requests.
• Upload & Scan provides an in-depth analysis of the codebase, which features like reporting being made easy.
• SCA Scans help us not only identify the vulnerabilities but also in helping fix them and in identifying if our application is using that part of the vulnerable library or not.
• Veracode is very easy to integrate into the CI/CD pipelines (especially Jenkins)

Incentivized

• Found a tad difficult in case of hybrid cloud environments - VMware specific etc
• API calls did not work well with only a few applications ( SNOW etc), most of it is fine
• Professional services / Support - dedicated customer support should be more proactive, flexible

Incentivized

• 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.

Veracode has always been up and available to us.

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.

1) flexible customer support and PoV assistance as compared to other vendors 2) Quick TAT turnaround, and easy sampling - Automation features are smooth to use and leverage 3) Our client was interested in this solution since they heard it from one of their other partners from USA - So, this solution was already a step ahead, we just had to pick it up and get used to it

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.

It meets our needs.

• Our single PoV helped few customers already - RoI return - Excellent
• GTM strategy - Go to Market worked - Saved potentially 500k USD minimum for client - within few months
• Allianz assistance - client support in planning helped to further smoothen the RoI cycle, we have planned upto FY 23 for our healthcare client

• 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.
