Precise Open-Source Analysis


HCL AppScan SCA leverages a proprietary database of open-source and third-party packages to enhance source code scanning. It identifies and analyzes components in your software using data from file hashes, binaries, and other sources—ensuring accurate vulnerability detection.

Our proprietary database aggregates data from leading sources—including NVD, GitHub Advisories, and Microsoft MSRC—as well as lesser-known security advisories and open-source issue trackers. Through automated daily updates, it ensures timely detection of emerging vulnerabilities across the software supply chain.

Flexible Integration Across the SDLC


HCL AppScan SCA integrates seamlessly at multiple stages of your application’s lifecycle. Developers can assess open-source packages directly within their IDEs, while security and release managers can use CLI or GUI tools to scan folders, containers, and images for vulnerabilities and license risks.

Extensive plugin support enables integration across CI/CD pipelines, and the powerful REST API allows for custom automation and tailored workflows.
