It is a comprehensive application security platform that helps organizations protect their business processes and data.
It detects the most common vulnerabilities from web, mobile, and open-source applications using industry-leading technologies such as static (SAST), dynamic (DAST), interactive (IAST), and software component analysis (SCA).
It enables vulnerabilities to be addressed before applications are deployed to production. Thanks to its easy-to-use, detailed reporting and centralized dashboard structure, it makes the organization's application security risk visible and manageable from end to end.
It provides a centralized platform that eliminates silos within the organization by enabling all stakeholders, from developers to CISOs, to communicate on the same security data.
It provides comprehensive protection at every stage of the software lifecycle.

Centralized Risk Management: All test results and remediation processes are monitored from a single screen. Supports enterprise and regulatory compliant security policies.
Container and Cloud Security: Reduces risks in cloud environments by scanning Docker containers and images.
Open Source Security (SCA): Automatically detects open source components and continuously monitors known vulnerabilities.
Automation and Customization: Integration and processes can be customized according to organizational needs with APIs and the AppScan Automation Framework.

DevSecOps Lifecycle Integration

It is involved in every step of the security development process.

Plan & Code: Enables developers to receive real-time feedback within the IDE while writing code and to fix errors instantly.
Build & Test: Integrates with CI/CD processes to automate SAST, DAST, IAST, and SCA tests and prevent vulnerabilities from reaching production.
Publish & Deploy: Continuously monitors running applications and APIs to identify new risks and validate the security posture.
Operate & Monitor: Monitors applications in the live environment, provides automated issue correlation, and offers contextual insights based on runtime behavior.

Security Testing Technologies

SAST (Static Analysis - "White Box"): Analyzes the application's source code without running it, identifying vulnerabilities at the beginning of the development process.
DAST (Dynamic Analysis - "Black Box"): Tests the running application from the outside, like a hacker, to identify vulnerabilities at runtime.
IAST (Interactive Analysis - "Glass Box"): A high-accuracy hybrid method that combines the strengths of both SAST and DAST by working within the application.
SCA (Software Component Analysis): Checks for known vulnerabilities and license compliance issues in third-party libraries and open-source components.
API Security: Provides specialized security testing solutions for APIs and web services of modern applications.
