    Backslash Security
    Ensure the security of your code and open sources. Identify externally reachable data flows and vulnerabilities for effective risk mitigation. By identifying genuine attack paths to reachable code, we enable you to fix only the code and open-source software that is truly in use and reachable. Avoid unnecessary overloading of development teams with irrelevant vulnerabilities. Prioritize risk mitigation efforts more effectively, ensuring a focused and efficient security approach. Reduce the noise CSPM, CNAPP, and other runtime tools create by removing unreachable packages before running your applications. Meticulously analyze your software components and dependencies, identifying any known vulnerabilities or outdated libraries that could pose a threat. Backslash analyzes both direct and transitive packages, ensuring 100% reachability coverage. It outperforms existing tools that solely focus on direct packages, accounting for only 11% of packages.

    Contrast Security

    Contrast Security

    Contrast Security

    Modern software development must match the speed of the business. But the modern AppSec tool soup lacks integration and creates complexity that slows software development life cycles. Contrast simplifies the complexity that impedes today’s development teams. Legacy AppSec employs a one-size-fits-all vulnerability detection and remediation approach that is inefficient and costly. Contrast automatically applies the best analysis and remediation technique, dramatically improving efficiencies and efficacy. Separate AppSec tools create silos that obfuscate the gathering of actionable intelligence across the application attack surface. Contrast delivers centralized observability that is critical to managing risks and capitalizing on operational efficiencies, both for security and development teams. Contrast Scan is pipeline native and delivers the speed, accuracy, and integration demanded by modern software development.

Think of Phylum like a firewall for open-source code. Phylum’s database of open-source software supply chain risks is the most comprehensive and scalable offering available, and can be deployed throughout the development lifecycle depending on an organization’s infrastructure and appsec program maturity: in front of artifact repository managers, directly with package managers or in CI/CD pipelines. The Phylum policy library allows users to toggle on the blocking of critical vulnerabilities, attacks like typosquats, obfuscated code and dependency confusion, copyleft licenses, and more. Users can also leverage OPA to create custom policies.
