Scanning in the repository
Proactively identify and mitigate security risks early in development, empowering developers to build secure applications by delivering scan results directly within their workflow.
Resolve security risks before they can be exploited
On-demand feedback
Provide immediate feedback and suggested fixes to developers about vulnerabilities found in their code by scanning code repositories on every commit, reducing the risk of vulnerabilities making it to production.
Differential results
Focus only on new or modified vulnerabilities from the last scan to reduce alert noise, making it easy for developers to quickly identify and address critical security concerns without disrupting their workflow.
No context switching
Embed vulnerability scanning and remediation directly into the developer’s workflow, allowing them to consume and act upon scan results without the hassle of learning and using a new UI.
Ensure tool adoption
Repository scanning is the furthest left you can shift to ensure early vulnerability detection and remediation within the development workflow while still enforcing company policies and requiring all developers to scan their code.
“One of our most indicative KPIs is the amount of time for us to remediate vulnerabilities and also the amount of time developers spend fixing vulnerabilities in our code base, which has reduced significantly. We’re talking about at least 80% reduction in time.”
“When the product you sell is an application you develop, your teams need to be fast, secure and compliant. These three factors often work in opposite directions. Mend provides the opportunity to align these often competing factors, providing Vonage with an advantage in a very competitive marketplace.”
“The biggest value we get out of Mend is the fast feedback loop, which enables our developers to respond rapidly to any vulnerability or license issues. When a vulnerability or a license is disregarded or blocked, and there is a policy violation, they get the feedback directly.”
Empower development teams to securely code
Scan in the repository to instill a developer-first security approach, building a culture of secure coding and continuous improvement.
Developer-first security
Proactively address threats early in the development lifecycle, while fostering a sense of ownership and coding best practices.
Secure coding culture
Normalize security as a core value within development teams, by implementing security tools that give instant feedback and work in the developers native environments.
Continuous improvement
Generate feedback loops allowing development teams to continuously iterate and improve their code and processes leading to reduced security risks.
AI Security Governance: A Practical Framework
This guide helps security and development teams build durable AI governance that keeps pace with how your teams actually work, without turning every AI adoption decision into a security standoff.
