FAQPage Schema
How do I scan changed code for security vulnerabilities before a merge?

To scan changed code for security vulnerabilities before a merge, run a security audit focused on modified files. This process applies OWASP-aligned checks to recently changed code, identifying input validation and authentication issues before deployment.

Can I run an OWASP security audit on only the files modified in a pull request?

Yes, you can run an OWASP security audit on only the modified files in a pull request. The scan focuses exclusively on recently changed files rather than the full repository, speeding up the review process during commits and pre-deploy checks.

What security checks should I run before deploying changed code to production?

Before deploying changed code, you should run OWASP-aligned security checks that enforce secure coding practices. This scan identifies vulnerabilities in modified files, ensuring proper input validation and authentication controls are addressed before go-live.

Does this security scan work on a full repository or just changed files?

This security scan works exclusively on changed files rather than a full repository. By targeting only recently modified code during pull requests or commits, it provides faster vulnerability detection for pre-deploy checks.

When do I need to run a pre-commit security scan on my code changes?

You need to run a pre-commit security scan when you want to catch vulnerabilities in modified code before merging or deployment. It is designed for use during pull requests, commits, and pre-deploy checks to ensure critical security issues are addressed early.
