Checkmarx

Checkmarx exists so the world can innovate faster than it ever has and still trust what it builds. That purpose starts with closing the Risk Gap — the widening distance between how fast software gets created and how fast risk can be understood and removed. As AI compresses the software development lifecycle from months to minutes, the old model of shipping code with known vulnerabilities and racing to patch it before attackers strike no longer works. Checkmarx's foundation: decades of deterministic threat intelligence and trillions of lines of code scanned each year.

Pros

  • Implementation Ease
  • User Interface
  • Customer Support
