What is VAddy?
VAddy performs robust security checks by integrating with existing CI tools, providing insight into web application security and hooking into standard deployment processes. It helps developers code securely without needing to be security experts, allowing teams to easily discover vulnerabilities before they become entrenched in code.
The tool automatically runs as part of existing CI processes after every code change, alerting users when commits contain vulnerabilities. It helps reduce last-minute vulnerability scans by continually performing high-quality security analysis throughout development, preventing surprises before release. VAddy visualizes security vulnerability frequency by team member or code module to quickly identify problem areas and improve security knowledge.
