Black Duck static application security testing (SAST) provides fast, scalable, and comprehensive detection of security and quality issues for any application, in the cloud, on premises, and at the developer desktop.

Find issues earlier

Identify issues early in the software development life cycle (SDLC) by running scans and security testing in the IDE and on every pull request to avoid impacting release timelines.

Streamline workflows

Integrate and automate static code analysis in your existing IDEs, source code management systems, and CI tools, with results integrated right into your developer tools and workflows.

Focus on real defects

Eliminate the noise of false positives so you can spend less time triaging results and more time delivering real value.

Find issues early in the SDLC

Code defects are easiest to resolve when they’re identified early, before they can impact release timelines or users. With Black Duck, you can integrate static code analysis at multiple points in the SDLC, allowing you to optimize testing to match the way your teams work.

Run in real time in the IDE

Developers are notified of vulnerabilities and code quality issues in real time as they code, preventing issues from being checked in to the code repository.
Trigger on pull requests

Incremental SAST scans identify issues in any code that’s changed since the previous scan, with integrations into popular source code management systems, such as GitHub, GitLab, and Bitbucket.
Automate in CI pipelines

SAST scans identify security or quality issues that haven’t yet been resolved, with the ability to break the build if policy violations exist.
Scheduled full scans

Comprehensive static application security testing scans can be run periodically to identify any critical security or quality defects across the full application.

Accurate static analysis when and where you need it

No matter what your development stack looks like, with Black Duck, you can integrate SAST seamlessly into your development and DevOps workflows and toolchains.

In the cloud

Looking for an easy-to-use SaaS solution optimized for modern development? Polaris fAST Static lets you onboard and begin scanning in minutes to uncover vulnerable source code, hard-coded secrets, or misconfigured infrastructure-as-code templates. Automated scans can be triggered by source code management and CI events.

Developer velocity

SAST results are provided right within existing workflows, so developers can eliminate defects quickly without leaving their favorite tools. Highly accurate results further improve efficiency by allowing developers to focus on real issues rather than wasting time triaging false positives.

Pinpoint accuracy

The Black Duck SAST scan engine can uncover complex issues that span multiple files and libraries. Security and quality checkers can be tuned to best match each application profile, so both developers and security teams get the results they need.

Enterprise scale

Black Duck customers routinely scan some of the largest applications in the world, including those with thousands of developers and tens of millions of lines of code. No matter how big your applications are, our SAST scans deliver consistently accurate results.

Security and quality compliance

Policy-based scans and built-in reports make it easy to track and manage compliance with the coding standards that matter to your business. Insights into issue types and severity help prioritize remediation efforts and track progress across teams and projects.
