Semgrep is profoundly improving software security and reliability

Semgrep was designed from the ground up with transparency as a foundational principal. From its simple, code-like rules to its AI capabilities, everything is visible and easy to troubleshoot.

Semgrep Code (SAST):

Semgrep Code is a Static Application Security Testing (SAST) tool that helps developers identify and fix security issues directly in their code. It supports over 30 languages and integrates seamlessly into developer workflows, providing fast and accurate scans. With high-confidence rules and AI-powered triage, it reduces false positives and accelerates remediation efforts.

Semgrep Supply Chain (SCA):

Semgrep Supply Chain focuses on Software Composition Analysis (SCA), identifying and addressing vulnerabilities in third-party dependencies. It performs reachability analysis to determine which vulnerabilities are actually exploitable in your codebase, reducing noise and helping prioritize fixes. Additionally, it offers license compliance checks and dependency search capabilities.

Semgrep Secrets:

Semgrep Secrets detects hardcoded secrets, such as API keys and passwords, within your code. Using semantic and entropy analysis, it identifies potential leaks and helps prevent security incidents related to exposed credentials. This tool ensures sensitive information is not inadvertently committed to your repositories.

Semgrep Assistant:

Semgrep Assistant leverages AI to provide contextual triage and code fix recommendations. It helps developers understand and remediate security findings by offering explanations and suggested fixes directly within their development environment, streamlining the secure coding process.

Semgrep AppSec Platform:

The Semgrep AppSec Platform offers a centralized solution for automating, managing, and enforcing security policies across your organization. It integrates with various tools and workflows, providing visibility into security posture and enabling scalable application security programs.

Semgrep Pro Engine:

Semgrep Pro Engine enhances code analysis by incorporating advanced dataflow analysis, including cross-file and cross-function capabilities. It supports enterprise languages and helps uncover complex vulnerabilities with greater accuracy, reducing false positives and improving detection of true security issues.
