Amazon Inspector launches code security to shift security left in development
News
AWS has launched Amazon Inspector code security capabilities, a new feature designed to help developers identify and prioritize security vulnerabilities earlier in the development process.
- Provides native integration with GitHub and GitLab
- Offers three core security scanning capabilities:
- Static Application Security Testing (SAST)
- Software Composition Analysis (SCA)
- Infrastructure as Code (IaC) scanning
- Allows scanning during code pushes, pulls, in CI/CD pipelines, and through scheduled scans
- Provides findings in both Amazon Inspector console and source code management platforms
- Available in 10 AWS regions worldwide
This expansion extends Amazon Inspector's existing vulnerability management capabilities from AWS compute resources to application source code and dependencies.
