NodeJsScan vs Xygeni

NodeJsScan is a static application security testing scanner for Node.js application source code. Its detection engine uses libsast and Semgrep, and the project provides a web interface, command-line interface, and Python API through njsscan. A local setup runs the web interface at http://127.0.0.1:9090. CLI results can be exported as JSON, SARIF 2.1.0, SonarQube, DefectDojo, GitLab SAST, or HTML. The .njsscan configuration file lets users set scanned file types, ignored paths and rules, severity filters, and severity overrides. Documented CI/CD integrations include GitHub Actions, GitHub Code Scanning, GitLab CI/CD, Travis CI, and CircleCI. Alerts can go to Slack through a webhook or to email using SMTP settings. Teams can run a prebuilt Docker image or build the image locally. The project describes use in CI/CD and DevSecOps pipelines. NodeJsScan is free and licensed under GPL-3.0. The current njsscan package requires Python 3.10 or newer and supports macOS and Linux; NodeJsScan version 4 onward dropped Windows support.

Xygeni describes itself as an application security platform for risks across the software supply chain. Its scanner runs inside the customer’s network and can inspect directories, repositories, container images, or source-control organizations. Findings can be sent to a cloud dashboard or kept locally; Xygeni says source code is not uploaded for scanning. The platform checks configuration files, build scripts, and CI job definitions for supply-chain misconfigurations, and performs automated audits against OpenSSF Scorecard and CIS Software Supply Chain Security. Secrets Security identifies more than 100 types of secrets and can block commits through Git hooks. Xygeni supports SSO with SAML2 and offers a REST API for security issues, risk summaries, trends, reports, and administration. Documented integrations include GitHub, GitLab, Azure DevOps, Bitbucket, Jenkins, Slack, and Jira. It supports ecosystems including Maven, Gradle, npm,.NET, Go, Python, PHP, Ruby, and Dart/Flutter, as well as SBOM generation, reachability analysis, and pull-request scanning. The free plan covers five contributors, up to 10 repositories, and 200 scans per month.
