Frequently asked questions about Kiuwan Code Security
What is Static Application Security Testing (SAST)?
Static Application Security Testing (SAST) analyzes source code to detect security vulnerabilities before an application is executed. It scans code using rules and algorithms that identify insecure patterns, catching risks like injection attacks and memory management flaws early in development before they become production threats.
How do SAST tools work?
SAST tools analyze source code without executing the program. They parse the code into an abstract syntax tree representing its structure, then apply rules to simulate behavior and detect vulnerabilities such as buffer overflows, injection flaws, and insecure coding patterns.
What vulnerabilities does Kiuwan Code Security detect?
Kiuwan Code Security can detect injection attacks (SQL, XML, OS command), cross-site scripting, cross-site request forgery, broken authentication, insecure cryptography, access control flaws, and security misconfigurations. All findings map to OWASP Top 10, CWE, CERT, PCI DSS, and SANS standards.
How does Kiuwan integrate with CI/CD pipelines?
Native plugins for Jenkins and Azure DevOps add scans to your build process. GitLab CI integrates via the local analyzer. The CLI works with any platform, including GitHub Actions, CircleCI, and TeamCity. Quality gates fail builds when high-severity vulnerabilities appear.
Can Kiuwan scan code without sending it to the cloud?
Yes. The Kiuwan local analyzer (KLA) runs entirely on your infrastructure for air-tight environments or data residency requirements. Results can sync to the cloud dashboard or remain fully on-premises with the KLA.
What compliance standards does Kiuwan support?
Findings map to OWASP Top 10, CWE/SANS Top 25, PCI DSS, CERT Secure Coding Standards, MISRA, NIST, and ISO/IEC 25000. Generate reports showing auditors your compliance posture without manual documentation.
