Application security has reached an inflection point. Organizations are pushing new code to production faster than ever, which is enabling too many security risks to leak into runtime. The responsibility for security testing is also shifting from security professionals to developers, even though traditional AppSec tools aren’t built with developers in mind. To overcome these challenges, modern AppSec solutions must integrate seamlessly with development pipelines and code repositories so teams can identify vulnerable components, detect misconfigurations and manage remediation workflows effectively.

Agile development requires security guardrails

Traditional security reviews break agile development methods and slow the business down. To accelerate secure deployment, security teams need to remove gates and build guardrails across the application development lifecycle.

Siloed tools lack holistic context

Cloud-native architectures are complex, and modern software supply chains rely on diverse technologies. Teams need integrated security solutions to simplify risk prioritization and enforce context-aware policies across the application lifecycle.

Consistent security is difficult to apply across the software development lifecycle (SDLC)

Security teams struggle to translate security policy into consistent technical enforcement across the application lifecycle. A platform approach to cloud security is the only way teams can apply consistent security from code to cloud.

A single tool to secure applications across all modern architectures and software supply chains.

Embedding comprehensive security throughout the SDLC makes it easy to identify vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, compliance violations and exposed secrets before they become a problem.
Prisma® Cloud consolidates AppSec capabilities — from code to runtime — into a single risk, policy and automation engine. This not only prevents risks from reaching production, it streamlines DevSecOps workflows and provides unparalleled visibility.
The result? Engineering teams can secure their entire stack within their existing tools while security teams ensure that all deployed code is fully protected.

Software composition analysis

Modern applications depend heavily on open-source libraries. Often, teams lack visibility into all the dependencies in use and hesitate to push updates for fear of causing disruptions — leaving potentially dangerous vulnerabilities unaddressed. Prisma Cloud integrates seamlessly with your developer tools to automatically identify vulnerabilities in open-source packages and their entire dependency trees. With support for flexible and granular bump fixes, the platform ensures your applications stay secure without risking functionality.

  • Ensure comprehensive open-source security

    Scan all open-source dependencies and cross-references them with trusted databases like NVD and the Prisma Cloud Intelligence Stream to uncover vulnerabilities.

  • Uncover and prioritize risks with context

    Analyze dependency trees to the deepest layer and link vulnerabilities to infrastructure and application risks, streamlining remediation efforts.

  • Resolve vulnerabilities without disruption

    Apply precise updates to fix direct and transitive dependency issues, avoiding breaking changes while addressing multiple vulnerabilities efficiently.

Software Composition Analysis

Software supply chain security

Cloud-native CI/CD pipelines are increasingly becoming the target of attacks as they give bad actors access to code and secrets, which can be used to inject malicious code or pivot to exfiltrate data. Prisma Cloud provides a powerful yet simple way to gain visibility and control of application delivery pipelines, using the Cloud Application Graph™ to harden CI/CD pipelines and prevent security issues from reaching production.

  • Gain complete visibility into the engineering ecosystem

    Achieve unified visibility and control across the engineering ecosystem, including code repositories, contributors, technologies used and pipelines connected.

  • Harden CI/CD pipelines

    Implement security guardrails that are informed by world-class software supply chain security research. Harden pipelines and achieve optimized security posture against the OWASP Top 10 CI/CD Risks framework.

  • Analyze the entire ecosystem

    Centralize visibility and control across the engineering ecosystem to correlate disparate signals across codebases, scanners, orchestration and automation tools.

  • Generate a software bill of materials (SBOM)

    Generate an SBOM report containing open-source packages, libraries and IaC resources, along with associated security issues, to track and understand application risk.
