AI-assisted SAST, SCA and Secrets Detection.

What it does

  • Scans source code for security vulnerabilities using static analysis (SAST).
  • Detects vulnerabilities in open source dependencies and blocks malware (SCA).
  • Finds hardcoded secrets using semantic analysis, entropy analysis, and validation.
  • Uses multimodal AI to combine rule-based analysis with AI reasoning for detection, triage, and remediation.
  • Provides automated triage and remediation guidance directly in PRs and IDEs.
  • Integrates with CI/CD, CLI, IDEs (VS Code, JetBrains), and AI tools like Cursor and Replit.
  • Scans source code for security vulnerabilities using static analysis and AI reasoning.
  • Detects classic issues like XSS and SQL injection as well as complex flaws like IDOR and business-logic vulnerabilities.
  • Filters out false positives by understanding mitigating context from the codebase.
  • Provides tailored, step-by-step remediation instructions in pull requests and IDEs.
  • Learns from triage decisions to automatically suppress repeat false positives over time.
  • Scans source-code dependencies for known vulnerabilities.
  • Uses reachability analysis to prioritize exploitable dependencies.
  • Blocks malware in open source dependencies.
  • Provides AI-powered upgrade guidance for fixes.
  • Reduces false positives in high and critical severity findings by up to 98%.
  • Detects hardcoded secrets, API keys, and other sensitive data using semantic analysis, entropy analysis, and regex.
  • Validates tokens by sending requests to corresponding services (e.g., AWS, Slack, GitHub) locally within your infrastructure.
  • Surfaces validated secrets to developers as PR comments for quick remediation.
  • Warns developers about secrets in their editor or code review workflows.
  • Uses pre-commit hooks to prevent secrets from being committed to Git repositories.
  • Allows writing custom rules to detect secrets specific to internal services.
  • Scans AI-generated code for vulnerabilities, malicious packages, and hardcoded secrets in real time.
  • Blocks hallucinated or malicious dependencies before they are installed.
  • Enforces OWASP Top 10 and organization-specific coding patterns on AI-generated code.
  • Prevents hardcoded API keys, tokens, and cloud credentials from reaching version control.
  • Provides a full audit trail of AI-generated code, flagged issues, and fixes.
  • Integrates with AI IDEs such as Claude Code, Windsurf, and Cursor via MCP server and hooks.
  • Combines AI reasoning with rule-based static analysis for vulnerability detection.
  • Automatically triages findings using code context and prior decisions.
  • Generates tailored remediation guidance directly in pull requests and IDEs.
  • Learns from human triage decisions to suppress repeat false positives.
  • Reduces the number of findings to triage by 20% on the first day.
  • Provides step-by-step remediation instructions to developers.
  • Automates, manages, and enforces code standards across your organization for code, supply chain, and secrets.
  • Integrates with GitHub, GitLab, and other SCM and CI tools.
  • Provides diff-aware scans to focus on issues in current changes.
  • Offers managed scanning with cloud infrastructure for faster results.
  • Controls which issues are monitored, which notify developers, and which block merges.
  • Define workflows as plain Python with typed steps and explicit inputs and outputs.
  • Combine Semgrep's analysis tools (SAST, Supply Chain, Malware Detection, Secrets) with LLMs like Claude and OpenAI.
  • Test workflows locally with the Semgrep CLI and deploy to managed infrastructure without changes.
  • Run workflows across the full repository fleet with automatic parallelization and retries.
  • Provide pre-built workflows for multimodal detection, AI-powered triage, and autofix.
  • Generate structured logs for every run to show what ran, what it cost, and what failed.
  • Scans source code for security vulnerabilities using rule-based semantic patterns.
  • Supports over 30 programming languages.
  • Provides output in terminal, SARIF, or JSON formats.
  • Integrates with CI/CD, IDEs, and custom workflows.
  • Includes over 3000 customizable open source rules from the Semgrep Registry.
  • Analyzes code across files using interfile dataflow analysis for C, C++, C#, Golang, Java, JavaScript/TypeScript, Kotlin, and Python.
  • Provides interprocedural analysis including taint analysis, constant propagation, and typed metavariables for 30+ languages.
  • Supports enterprise languages such as Apex.
  • Reduces false positives by tracking whether tainted user inputs can reach unsafe operations via long function call chains.
  • Discovers more true positives through advanced code analysis across files and procedures.
  • Hosts community and Pro rules for Semgrep.
  • Allows Teams and Enterprise users to publish private rules.
  • Provides Pro rules with improved coverage and high-confidence results.
  • Supports multiple coding languages and CI/CD tools.
