What Is Static Code Analysis? A Security-Focused Explanation

AI-based review and SAST catch different classes of bugs and both have benefits. Here's how to decide which one runs where, and when your team needs both.

Aikido maps four complementary ways to find vulnerabilities — traditional SAST, deep PR review, AI code analysis and AI pentesting — explaining what each catches and where it fits in the lifecycle.

Wiz SAST enters public preview: zero-config code-to-cloud mapping correlates code flaws with where workloads run, what they access and how exposed they are, so teams prioritize what's truly reachable.

A GrammaTech guest post argues DevSecOps pipelines alone miss the adversarial view; pairing SAST automation with offensive security closes the blind spot where design and code flaws slip through.

Podcast talk on shift-left application security: moving tests earlier saves time and money but strains teams, and contextual pentesting with better asset prioritization eases AppSec friction.

Podcast recap with Checkmarx CTO Maty Siman on maturing application security: what shift left really means as open source, APIs, and component-based development expand the modern attack surface.
