Veracode provides advanced application security solutions, trusted by enterprises to develop and maintain secure software. Its platform identifies exploitable risks, speeds up vulnerability remediation, and reduces security debt at scale using a proprietary AI-assisted remediation engine.
As a user, I would recommend Onapsis for people who are shorthanded in security or basis teams. One thing to be clear is that this is not a cheap product but still every penny counts here. If your SAP system has multiple products and connections then Onapsis is a great tool.
* (+) Report generation for our clients: reports are very comprehensive and look professional. * (-) Veracode pipeline scan: takes too much time, need to split our application so that it can fit within the timeout (2h). Currently we're not able to use it, we still use "upload & scan" functionality in our CI pipelines. This is a showstopper to be able to break the build in case of new vuln, and also to use Fix AI based tool.
Eliminating the manual process improves the overall accuracy of results and also frees up valuable resources to focus on other different projects.
Onapsis provides great leverage to our technical teams in order to review in a standardized way of the landscape.
Onapsis always matches vulnerabilities with useful context and finds possible solutions.
Onapsis is usually implemented to continuously monitor, and alert us on any issues on the SAP systems. Not only this but implementing Onapsis also eliminates the network on the year-end and month-end audits and helps in making the overall process faster, smooth, efficient as well as accurate.
We would like to see Veracode continue to improve the integrations available, particularly with respect to .NET IDEs. Part of our development team uses JetBrains' Rider which is, as of this time, unsupported for static integration.
We would also like to see Veracode continue to improve their dynamic scan offerings; with the recent addition of DAST Essentials we feel this improvement may come sooner than later.
At this time, and we just renewed a month ago, I dont see any products out there overall that can offer what Veracode does. Yes, its not cheap by any means, but for the money its the best application security scanning tool out there.
- Almost no setup required and easy to configure - Very easy to use, intuitive UI with integrated analytics and learning portals. - Seamless to review the results, triage them, generate reports. - Security progression of the product/application is tracked via successive scans. - Privileges/Roles nicely fine grained and tightly controlled to let teams "view" only their products.
Overall, Veracode support is helpful, community support is great, and documentation is available for self-service. Our Customer Success Manager is very helpful and reaches out regularly to see if we need assistance. We have not utilized many of the other resources offered by Veracode, however, in the future we would like to leverage secure coding training for our Development teams.
We use it as a SAS service, so really just getting our teams to mold the use of Veracode into their SDLC has been a process of years in the making. It comes down to what your teams are ready and willing to accept and change. Management is key in getting their groups on board with using it regularly. If it doesnt have management backing, your security teams have little to no influence in getting this process off the ground fully.
There are other tools which we have compared with Onapsis,
SAP ETD
SAP CVA
SecurityBridge
These tools along with the highlighted ones in the above list do not cover all components of Onapsis and as far as we have seen, there is no tool providing the same competencies. It provides good insights, and is constantly updating. On top of that Onapsis Research Labs constantly contributes towards SAP Patch Tuesday regarding multiple "Hot News" vulnerabilities.
Sonatype only identifies and scans third-party dependency and not custom-developed code—at least that's what it was doing back in 2018 when I used to utilize its services. Interface-wise, too, Veracode looks much cleaner and easier to navigate than Sonatype. Support and consultation with how-to guides and documents make Veracode easier to use.
Positive: Scanning all our applications on Veracode provides us an overview of our cyber security posture for the organization as a whole.
Positive: Performing the SAST, SCA and DAST scanning for all the applications at the early stages of the SDLC helps us identify and mitigate security vulnerabilities early, reducing the risk of data breaches and cyber-attacks.
Negative: Sometimes Veracode SAST scanner closed and reopens some findings, leading to reliability issues on the scanner itself.
