Secure Your Applications from Day One

Static Application Security Testing (SAST) analyzes source code to detect security vulnerabilities before an application is executed. It scans the code using a series of rules and algorithms that look for patterns known to be secure or insecure. By detecting risks like injection attacks and memory management flaws early in the development process, SAST helps developers address potential vulnerabilities before they become security threats, strengthening application security.

SAST (Static Application Security Testing) tools work by analyzing source code or binaries without executing the program. They first parse the code and generate an abstract syntax tree (AST), which represents the code’s structure. The tool then applies a set of rules and algorithms to the AST, simulating the program's behavior to detect vulnerabilities such as buffer overflows, injection flaws, or insecure coding patterns. SAST tools analyze the code at a deep level to identify potential security risks early in the development process, allowing teams to address these issues before the software is deployed.

Kiuwan Code Security detects a variety of vulnerabilities, including injection attacks, cross-site scripting (XSS), cross-site request forgery (CSRF), insufficient authentication or authorization, and memory management issues like use-after-free.
It also identifies application misconfigurations and potential information leakage, helping to secure your code and protect against threats early in development.

Kiuwan Code Security seamlessly integrates with popular development environments like Jenkins, GitLab, and Visual Studio, enabling automatic vulnerability scans within your CI/CD pipeline.
This ensures security checks happen without slowing down your development workflow.

Kiuwan Code Security (SAST) supports compliance with major security standards such as OWASP Top 10, CWE/SANS, and PCI-DSS.
It provides detailed reporting to help your team meet these compliance requirements during development, ensuring your applications align with industry best practices.

Yes, Kiuwan Code Security (SAST) supports more than 30+ programming languages, including Java, C#, JavaScript, Python, and more.
This allows development teams working across different tech stacks to apply the same level of security throughout their codebase.

It's best to run SAST scans continuously throughout development—particularly during code check-ins and before releases—to catch vulnerabilities as early as possible. Kiuwan Code Security can automate SAST scans at various stages, ensuring consistent security testing without disrupting your workflow.
