In almost every software development landscape, applications rely on open-source components, which often include hidden vulnerabilities. Protecting your applications from these risks are critical and costly. This is where HCL Appscan’s new Runtime Software Composition Analysis (Runtime SCA) comes into play, providing powerful tools to protect your organization from these hidden threats.

Software Composition Analysis (SCA) identifies and manages vulnerabilities within open-source software. SCA integrates effortlessly into various stages of your application’s development process, allowing security teams, release managers, and developers to assess their components within specific folders or containers/images. SCA quickly detects risks introduced by these components, making it easier to identify open-source packages that contain vulnerabilities or present potential licensing issues. Ensuring applications remain secure during their lifecycle and a more reliable security assessment.

Introducing SCA for Runtime Protection

One of the standout features of HCL AppScan’s SCA is its ability to identify and manage vulnerabilities in open-source libraries used at runtime. By scanning applications in real-time, it provides deepers insights into potential vulnerabilities, helping you prioritize remediation efforts and resolve issues based on actual threats they pose to your organization. 

Additionally, HCL AppScan’s SCA supports Go Modules that covers a wide range of languages. This includes .NET, JavaScript, and Python; allowing you to have a more comprehensive view of potential vulnerabilities and configuration issues across your applications. For more information on languages and requirements, you can refer to our documentation

Advanced Malware Detection

Through automated and human analysis, HCL AppScan ensures a comprehensive security assessment that continuously monitors software updates. Teams can scan multiple repositories and conduct multi-domain analysis to identify open-source libraries that may be harboring malware. Any suspicious activity is reviewed by a team of experts to ensure accuracy and actionable insights. 

HCL AppScan is continuously evolving to meet the needs of modern software development. With these new SCA features, you can better detect and manage vulnerabilities in your open-source components, keeping your software supply chain secure and your operations running smoothly.
