Why modern development teams need unified code security

As releases speed up, your attack surface grows. OpenText™ Application Security unifies SAST, DAST, SCA, and MAST in one platform so you can find and fix vulnerabilities before production. IDE and CI/CD plug-ins, AI-powered guidance, automation tools, and policy-driven gates help DevSecOps teams focus on what matters, cut risk, prove compliance, and practice secure software development at scale.

Core advantages of AI-driven code security

Cut exploitable risk without compromising release velocity. With unified coverage and built‑in intelligence, OpenText application security helps organizations secure code, satisfy compliance, and keep business innovation moving.

  • Lower your AppSec costs with one platform

    Tool sprawl drives up licenses and slows teams. Consolidate SAST, DAST, SCA, and MAST into a single AppSec platform to reduce overhead and give developers and security a single source of truth for vulnerabilities.

  • Release faster with security built in

    Embed scanning into your IDE and CI/CD pipeline so developers get accurate, actionable findings exactly where they work. Policy gates and AI‑assisted fixes keep releases on track while cutting exploitable risk.

  • Simplify compliance and audit readiness

    Generate audit‑ready reports across your portfolio at the click of a button. Pre‑configured policies for OWASP, ISO, PCI DSS, NIST, and other standards simplify compliance.

  • Future‑proof your program with flexible scale

    Choose SaaS, self‑managed, or hybrid deployment to match your security posture and your organization’s size. Leverage decades of AppSec expertise and continuous research to stay ahead of emerging threats.

  • Empower developers with AI remediation

    Bring AI into the secure‑coding workflow. OpenText™ Application Security Aviator™ (Fortify) analyzes code, explains vulnerabilities in plain language, and proposes validated fixes. Fewer false positives and faster remediation mean happier developers and shorter backlogs.

Business impacts

  • Application backlog

    Disconnected tools and noisy findings create enormous backlogs. Centralizing SAST, DAST, and SCA with shared policies eliminates duplicates, focuses teams on the highest‑risk issues and keeps major releases on schedule.

  • Cloud releases

    Manual reviews can’t keep up with rapid cloud releases. By automating checks in CI/CD, every build runs application security tests, critical flaws are blocked early, and high‑velocity release trains continue unhindered.

  • Audit readiness

    Last‑minute compliance sprints disrupt development. Continuous monitoring with pre‑mapped policies and reusable reports ensures audit coverage is always current, preventing fire drills and demonstrating due diligence.

  • Open-source and third-party risk

    Modern apps rely on open source. Automated software composition analysis instantly reveals where vulnerable libraries live, prioritizes remediation, and builds SBOMs to meet emerging software supply chain mandates.

  • Plug-ins and APIs embed SAST, DAST, SCA, IaC, API, and mobile testing directly into your CI/CD workflows. Scans can run on every commit, pull request, or build, while policy-driven quality gates block non-compliant releases. Results flow back to the tools developers already use, so they can fix issues without leaving their pipeline.

  • Application Security Aviator (Fortify) is an AI code security assistant that analyzes scan results and source code to explain vulnerabilities in natural language and propose validated fixes. It helps developers understand issues faster, reduce manual triage, and remediate findings more quickly, all while working inside existing OpenText application security workflows.

  • You can deploy OpenText application security as SaaS, in a private or public cloud, or fully on-premises. This flexibility lets you align AppSec with your existing infrastructure, data residency rules, and regulatory requirements while still using the same core capabilities and management experience across environments.

  • Instead of stitching together point products, OpenText application security unifies SAST, DAST, SCA, and MAST in one platform with shared policies, reporting, and risk scoring. You get fewer tools to manage, less duplicate noise, and a single view of application risk across teams, pipelines, and environments, which simplifies governance and improves decision-making.

  • Most organizations begin with a targeted set of applications and pipelines, using out-of-the-box rules, policies, and integrations. Because developer plug-ins and templates are prebuilt, teams typically see meaningful findings and workflow improvements within days or weeks—not months—and can then expand coverage and maturity in phases as their AppSec program grows.

  • Scan data and code are handled under strict security and governance controls. AI capabilities such as Application Security Aviator use enterprise-grade protections, keep customer information isolated from public model training, and respect data residency choices. You decide where data is processed and how long it is retained, helping you meet internal, regulatory, and privacy requirements.
