Checkmarx
Static and dynamic application security testing that secures your software from code to cloud across the entire development lifecycle.
Where Checkmarx Fits in the Stack
Checkmarx is a comprehensive application security platform that provides static analysis (SAST), software composition analysis (SCA), dynamic testing (DAST), and API security testing. It integrates into CI/CD pipelines to shift security left without slowing development.
As organisations accelerate software delivery with DevOps and cloud-native development, application security must keep pace. Checkmarx provides the tooling to embed security testing throughout the development lifecycle, finding vulnerabilities before they reach production.
For Microsoft-centric development teams using Azure DevOps and GitHub, Checkmarx integrates seamlessly into existing workflows, providing developer-friendly feedback and automated security gates.
