security-scanner

Security scanning identifies vulnerabilities, hardcoded secrets, and insecure code patterns across Python, JavaScript, and container codebases. It runs grep-based secret detection, dependency vulnerability checks, and static analysis to produce a structured vulnerability report for remediation.

Yes, security scanning runs at multiple stages: pre-commit checks catch secrets before code is pushed, CI/CD pipelines detect vulnerabilities during builds, and dependency audits flag outdated libraries. It produces actionable reports to fail builds or warn teams.

The scanner detects hardcoded API keys, credentials, and sensitive data using targeted patterns and dedicated tools like Gitleaks and TruffleHog. It identifies CVEs in dependencies via pip-audit, safety, npm/yarn audit, and Trivy, plus insecure code patterns and risky configurations.

Security scanning supports Python, JavaScript, and container environments. It integrates dependency audits for pip, npm, and yarn, plus container image scanning, making it applicable across diverse tech stacks and deployment models.

Pattern detection flags unsafe code patterns and risky configurations in source code through static analysis. Dependency scanning checks libraries against known CVE databases to identify outdated or vulnerable packages—both run together for comprehensive coverage.

Yes, pre-commit checks integrate security scanning to prevent secrets and vulnerable code from being committed. The scanner flags issues before code reaches the repository, enabling developers to fix problems locally before pushing.
