In the race to innovate and release new features, security often takes a backseat—but it doesn’t have to. With Umenitx’s automated SAST (Static Application Security Testing) and DAST (Dynamic Application Security Testing), you can integrate security directly into your CI/CD pipeline. This not only reduces the risk of vulnerabilities reaching production but also empowers your team to deliver secure, high-quality software without sacrificing speed.
Why Security in DevOps Matters More Than Ever
The stakes have never been higher. Cyberattacks are growing in complexity and scale, leaving businesses vulnerable to breaches, compliance issues, and reputational damage. That’s where Umenitx comes in—offering a shift-left security approach that embeds security at the earliest stages of development.
With Umenitx, you don’t just respond to threats—you prevent them.
How Umenitx Revolutionizes CI/CD Security
At Umenitx, we’ve reimagined security for modern DevOps teams by combining the best of SAST and DAST tools into a seamless process. Here’s what sets us apart:
- Automated Scanning: Every code commit undergoes real-time vulnerability scanning.
- Instant Feedback: Developers receive immediate alerts, allowing them to resolve issues swiftly.
- Custom Security Policies: Tailored rules ensure precision, focusing on what truly matters.
Tools like SonarQube, OWASP ZAP, and Snyk integrate effortlessly into popular CI/CD platforms such as GitHub Actions, Jenkins, Bitbucket Pipelines, and Azure DevOps.
SAST vs. DAST: The Perfect Partnership
SAST (Static Application Security Testing)
SAST scans your source code or binaries to identify vulnerabilities before your application even runs. It’s perfect for catching issues like:
- SQL Injection
- Slashing incident
- Insecure Configurations
DAST (Dynamic Application Security Testing)
DAST evaluates your running application to uncover vulnerabilities such as:
- Broken Authentication
- Misconfigurations
- Server-Side Issues
Together, these tools create a comprehensive security shield, ensuring your software is resilient against threats from all angles.
