If you haven’t been programming since fixing Y2K was the problem of the day, you may not know just how much trouble we’ve been in with supply chain software security holes and attacks. What Rapid Scan brings to your developer desk is faster, lightweight vulnerability detection for both your proprietary and open-source code. In particular, Rapid Scan is optimized for the early stages of development, when it’s still easy to catch bugs before they’ve become embedded in your programs.

The new capabilities include: In Coverity Rapid Scan SAST you get speedy security analysis of proprietary code at the developer’s desktop and in continuous integration (CI) pipelines such as GitLab and GitHub Actions.

To use it you just point Rapid Scan SAST to a directory or Git repository and it provides relevant actionable feedback in the command line or within the forthcoming Microsoft Visual Studio Code, Code Sight IDE plugin.
