Reducing CVEs in container base images
Base images inherit hundreds of OS-level CVEs your app never touches. Here's how reachability analysis and minimal bases cut real risk, not just counts.
Audit Preparation for AppSec programs
Veracode scans your code, but auditors want proof: which artifact shipped, which SBOM covers it, who approved every exception. Here's what closes that gap.
Cost-Per-Verified-Finding: How Agentic AI Breaks Vulnerability Triage
Agentic AI can generate findings faster than any team can read them. The metric that survives that flood isn't cost-per-finding, it's cost-per-verified-finding. Here's why verification is now the bottleneck.
HIPAA application security validation testing
A 2025 HHS rule proposes fixed testing cadences for HIPAA. Heres what security testing requirements demand now, and how Safeguard closes the gaps Veracode leaves.
DORA (Digital Operational Resilience Act) and code-level ...
DORA turns code-level and open-source risk into a regulatory obligation. Here's what dora compliance software security actually requires, and where tools like Veracode fall short.
Breaking free from alert fatigue in AppSec
Veracode-style scanners flood AppSec teams with thousands of unranked alerts. Here's why appsec alert fatigue happens, what it costs, and how reachability-based triage fixes it.
Securing AWS Lambda functions
A practical guide to AWS Lambda security best practices: IAM scoping, dependency risk, secrets handling, and runtime detection for serverless apps.
Reachability-based vulnerability prioritization (Polaris ...
Reachability analysis cuts CVE noise by confirming which vulnerabilities are exploitable. Here's how Black Duck's Polaris reachability compares to Safeguard's pipeline-native approach.
Software Composition Analysis Tools: buyer's checklist
A practical SCA buyer's checklist comparing Safeguard and Black Duck on detection method, CI/CD fit, remediation speed, and license policy enforcement.
AppSec program consolidation: reducing tool sprawl
AppSec tool sprawl is a consolidation problem, not just a vendor-count problem. A look at Black Duck's product lineage versus Safeguard's unified scanning pipeline.
Can AI write secure code? Auditing AI-generated code
AI writes code fast, but studies from 2021 to 2025 show it also reproduces insecure patterns and invents fake dependencies. Here's what the data says.
Enterprise AppSec risk management at scale
Black Duck built its platform on decades of license-compliance SCA and acquired tools. Safeguard built a unified, reachability-aware supply-chain risk platform from day one.
