Visual Studio 2022 extension for Veracode Static Analysis (Policy Scan) Scans: find security defects in your code and get advice to help you fix them, directly in the Visual Studio IDE.
Veracode enables you to find and fix security vulnerabilities in your application without leaving Visual Studio. Using the power of Veracode Static Analysis, you can perform highly-accurate security testing for your application within Visual Studio, plus get easy access to all the information you need to prioritize and fix security findings—fast.
Veracode Static for Visual Studio 2022 is part of the Veracode ecosystem of integrations, including Azure DevOps extensions and integrations with several build servers, IDEs, and defect-tracking solutions. These integrations help you connect Veracode with your software development process. For more information about Veracode's integrations and APIs, see the Veracode Documentation.
Veracode Static for Visual Studio 2022 enables you to work with security findings, jump to the line of code, view data path information, and view remediation guidance all from within Visual Studio.
Key Benefits
The easiest way to test your .NET application with Veracode: Veracode Static for Visual Studio 2022 allows you to start an analysis, review security findings, and triage the results, all from within the Visual Studio environment. To ensure the best possible coverage and highest quality results, the extension automates the preparation of your application for scanning. In addition, you can easily see which findings violate your security policy and view the data path information to understand how your code may be vulnerable to attack.
Integrate application security into your development workflow: When security is integrated, you remove friction. You can use Veracode Static for Visual Studio 2022 to test code changes prior to checking in, then test the whole application by integrating Veracode Static Analysis into your Azure DevOps pipeline—or into other build tools like Jenkins or TeamCity. And, you can review security findings in Visual Studio.
Prioritize real issues, not false alarms: Because Veracode gives you accurate results and prioritizes them based on severity, you won't need to waste resources dealing with hundreds of false positives. We have assessed 14 trillion lines of code in 25 languages and 100 frameworks, and we get better with every assessment due to our rapid update cycles and continuous improvement processes. If something does get through, just mitigate it using an easy Veracode workflow; we'll remember that mitigation the next time we find that flaw.
Align your AppSec practices with your development practices: Do you have a large or distributed development team? Are you drowning in revision control branches? You can use Veracode Static for Visual Studio 2022 with the Veracode Developer Sandbox, which supports multiple development branches, feature teams and other parallel development practices.
Don't just find vulnerabilities, fix them: Veracode gives you remediation guidance with each finding, as well as the data path that an attacker would use to reach the weak point in the application. Veracode also highlights the most common sources of vulnerabilities to help prioritize remediation. In addition, when vulnerability reports don't provide enough clarity, you can set up one-on-one developer consultations with our experts who have backgrounds in both security and software development.
