Where this offering fits
SAST examines supported source or build representations for code-security issues. Evaluate Invicti SAST against the languages and development process in use. Its findings need source ownership and developer review; a long issue list without a remediation route is not a finished rollout.
Architecture and rollout decisions
Confirm language and framework support, repository access and scan prerequisites. Use a bounded codebase to test detection context, triage and retest after a fix. Establish treatment of generated code and exclusions. Keep permissions narrow and agree where code or scan data is processed before connecting production repositories.
An evaluation scenario for this offering
Prepare a small supported codebase containing a reviewed test weakness, a benign construct that resembles it and an excluded generated-code area. Ask the proposed SAST workflow to assess the agreed boundary, then have the developer review the reported source context. Correct the test weakness and compare the next result. Also change a scan prerequisite in the test setup so an incomplete assessment can be recognised. The accepted output should distinguish actionable findings, justified exclusions and failed coverage. It should leave an explainable triage record rather than silently suppressing inconvenient results or reporting an unsuccessful scan as a clean application.
Evidence to request for this scope
