You can use tools such as Snyk to generate your reports. Snyk also powers the docker scan command that's integrated into Docker's CLI.

Scan your projects for vulnerabilities regularly More development platforms add features to check if the dependencies of your application contain a vulnerable packages. In modern ASP.NET you can use dotnet list package --vulnerable and in NPM you can use npm audit. It's even better to automatically scan your dependencies regularly. You can use tools like snyk or mend.io (formerly Whitesource) to help you with that. Those tools are expensive but have some advanced features.

Snyk

Hi folks, I'm diving into Snyk this time. This is a platform for developer security that helps protect infrastructure as code, dependencies, containers, and code. Snyk includes the following products and mostly focuses on security and dependency monitoring:

In this article, you learned all about how SQL injections manifest in Node.js applications and discovered multiple strategies to help prevent them. From updating your ORM and SQL libraries, sanitizing user inputs, and using query placeholders to leveraging the Snyk IDE extension for Visual Studio Code, you have a whole host of measures to secure your Node.js applications against SQL injection attacks.

Snyk is one of the most popular tools to work with security stuff and helps you to find vulnerabilities in your not just codebase but infrastructure.

So you've just bought a new platform tool? Maybe it's Hashicorp Vault? Snyk? Backstage? You’re excited about all of the developer experience, security and other benefits you're about to unleash on your company—right? But wait…

Snyk can also be used as an IDE extension to find insecure code in React codebases and can help you fix any security vulnerabilities in open source dependencies.

It’s become so ubiquitous, that it’s easy to forget what a marvel the HTTP specification truly is. When you browse to website, like https://snyk.io, that triggers a flurry of additional HTTP requests to retrieve JavaScript, images, videos, and other assets. And within seconds, you see a fully rendered page. In fact, the goal of any consumer-facing website is to deliver an entirely rendered web page within a few seconds at most, or else they could lose traffic to a slightly faster site (seconds add up!).

‍Terrascan is a static code analysis tool that scans your Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) for security vulnerabilities and compliance violations. It supports multiple platforms like (AWS, Azure, GCP, K8s, Atlantis, etc), including Terraform. Terrascan allows you to enforce security best practices, compliance policies, and governance across your IaC deployments.

Terrascan - Scan for Infrastructure-as-Code vulnerabilities

(https://runterrascan.io/) They seem to like it, don't have a ton of my own experience though.

Nessus Expert - newer offering. Nessus Pro + terrascan + basic external attack surface mapping. Doesn’t scan from the internet, but shows you all your public domains, DNS, etc so you can pick what you want to scan/ fix

It is always a good practice to scan your Kubernetes deployment or Helm chart before deploying. We can use Checkov to scans Kubernetes manifests and identifies security and configuration issues. It also supports Helm chart scanning. We can also use terrascan and kubeLinter to scan the Kubernetes manifest.
