Veracode IaC Security
Secure your cloud-native applications with a unified platform.
Overview
Veracode, a long-time leader in the application security testing (AST) market, offers IaC Security as part of its unified platform. This feature allows developers to scan IaC templates for misconfigurations directly within their CI/CD pipelines. By integrating IaC scanning with its existing SAST, DAST, and SCA capabilities, Veracode provides a single view of security risk across the entire application and its underlying infrastructure.
✨ Key Features
- IaC scanning for misconfigurations
- Integrated with Veracode's SAST, DAST, and SCA tools
- CI/CD pipeline integration
- Centralized policy management and reporting
- Developer-friendly feedback and remediation guidance
🎯 Key Differentiators
- Long history and strong reputation in the application security market.
- Unified platform approach reduces tool sprawl.
- Combines multiple analysis types (SAST, SCA, IaC) for a comprehensive risk picture.
Unique Value: Provides a single, trusted platform for securing the entire software supply chain, from the application code to the infrastructure it runs on.
🎯 Use Cases (4)
✅ Best For
- Scanning a repository and getting a single report with vulnerabilities from the Java application code and the Terraform infrastructure code.
- Failing a build pipeline due to a critical misconfiguration found in a CloudFormation template.
💡 Check With Vendor
Verify these considerations match your specific requirements:
- Organizations that only need IaC scanning and not a full application security platform.
🏆 Alternatives
Like Checkmarx, Veracode's strength is its deep focus on application security. It provides a more integrated code-level security solution than a CNAPP, which is more focused on the runtime environment.
