Fluid Attacks vs Security Code Scan

Fluid Attacks is an application security platform for finding, reporting, managing and remediating vulnerabilities through the software development lifecycle. Essential includes continuous automated SAST, SCA, DAST, MAST, CSPM and secret scanning. Advanced adds expert PTaaS, secure code review and reverse engineering. Teams can prioritize vulnerabilities with customizable risk scoring, set temporary or permanent risk acceptance, and configure build-breaking thresholds. Autofix and Custom Fix provide GenAI-assisted remediation in the platform and IDE extensions. Listed connections include Jira Cloud, GitLab, Azure DevOps, IDE extensions, CI Gate, a GraphQL platform API and webhooks; plugins or extensions are listed for Visual Studio Code, Cursor and IntelliJ IDEA. The platform targets source code and supports 14 languages, pull request scans and CI/CD integration. Fluid Attacks describes it for security, development and fraud teams seeking visibility into software risk and remediation. Pricing is on request, with no free plan. The 21-day Essential trial requires a Git repository and a corporate Google, Azure or Bitbucket account; existing client organizations cannot create trial accounts.

Security Code Scan is a free, open-source static analyzer for .NET projects written in C# and VB.NET. It detects vulnerability patterns such as SQL injection, cross-site scripting, CSRF, and XML external entity injection, using inter-procedural taint analysis to follow input data. Projects can be analyzed in the background through IntelliSense or during a build. For delivery workflows, it supports GitHub and GitLab pipelines, MSBuild, and a stand-alone runner; custom integrations can emit SARIF results and place warnings alongside other build messages. Users can define taint sources, sinks, sanitizers, validators, and project-specific settings. The analyzer supports Visual Studio 2019 or higher, while the project says other Roslyn analyzer editors such as Rider or OmniSharp should work. Releases are available as a NuGet package, Visual Studio extension, and stand-alone runner for Windows and Linux. The maker warns that the extension or NuGet package can slow the IDE and recommends CI/CD pipelines as the more common use case. Audit mode is off by default. The repository identifies an LGPL-3.0 license.
