Key Features
Below is an overview of the core capabilities of Plexicus that help you build, deploy, and operate applications with confidence.
1. Application Security (AppSec)
Secure your applications from the earliest stages of development. Plexicus's AppSec capabilities integrate directly into your CI/CD pipeline to identify and remediate vulnerabilities in your code and open-source dependencies.
- Static Application Security Testing (SAST)
Detect vulnerabilities in your source code with tools like Checkmarx, Semgrep, and Fortify, ensuring compliance with standards like the OWASP Top 10. - Software Composition Analysis (SCA)
Identify vulnerable dependencies and manage license compliance across all major package managers with theplexicus-scaandplexicus-licensebundles, and generate full SBOMs withplexicus-sbom. - Secrets Scanning
Prevent exposure of sensitive credentials like API keys and passwords with theplexicus-secretsbundle — including Git-history scanning and live verification against issuing services. - Infrastructure as Code (IaC) Security
Scan Terraform, CloudFormation, Kubernetes, Helm, and other IaC definitions for policy violations with theplexicus-iacandplexicus-cicdbundles.
2. Container Security
Protect the containerized applications declared in your repositories. Plexicus scans Dockerfiles and the images they define, together with the Kubernetes manifests that deploy them.
- Vulnerability Scanning
Identify known vulnerabilities in the container images your repositories declare with theplexicus-containerbundle. - Secure Configuration
Ensure the Dockerfiles and Kubernetes manifests in your repositories are configured securely to prevent common attack vectors.
3. Supply-Chain Security
Audit the integrity of your software supply chain and the posture of your source control.
- Supply-chain posture
Audit SLSA supply-chain compliance and source-control settings with theplexicus-scmbundle. - Bills of materials
Generate SBOM, CBOM and AIBOM inventories with theplexicus-sbom,plexicus-cbomandplexicus-aibombundles, and combine them in the XBOM.
