Spec score 7.7 #11 of 25 in DevSecOps Platforms

What it is

Cycode SCA helps security and development teams find and address vulnerable open-source dependencies before production. It continuously checks code and build modules for vulnerabilities and license violations, using manifest and binary analysis to map direct and transitive dependencies. Risk scoring, reachability analysis, and code-to-cloud traceability help teams identify exploitable issues, connect them to root causes, and assign code owners. Remediation guidance and one-click fixes are available through pull request scans, CLI and IDE workflows, with bulk remediation also supported. Teams can generate SBOMs in SPDX or CycloneDX format and enforce security or licensing policies that block builds or trigger alerts. Supported ecosystems include Java, Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, Go, C++, C#, and other languages. Cycode lists API, Linux, web, and self-hosted platforms, with hybrid deployment options. Pricing is on request and based on active developer count and AI usage.
