Invicti Security has introduced Invicti AppSec Core, a comprehensive application security platform aimed at reducing noise from scanners and allowing AppSec teams to concentrate on real and exploitable runtime risks throughout the software development lifecycle (SDLC).
This platform is designed with lean security teams in mind, offering unified visibility and control over essential tools needed to secure web and API applications, from code creation to cloud deployment and runtime operations.
Addressing Key Security Challenges
AppSec Core tackles several critical security issues currently confronting organizations. These include the overwhelming number of alerts from isolated scanners that obscure genuine threats, the challenge for overloaded security teams to prioritize and address the most dangerous runtime risks, and the pressure to enhance AppSec maturity during periods of CISO changes, mergers, acquisitions, and regulatory audits.
AppSec Core tackles several critical security issues currently confronting organizations
The platform, built on Invicti's ASPM (previously Kondukto) and utilizing DAST technology, focuses on minimizing alert noise. It integrates protection across six additional security areas: SAST, SCA, Supply Chain Security, container security, secrets management, and Infrastructure as Code (IaC).
Comprehensive Security Features
AppSec Core enables the discovery and documentation of shadow APIs and web applications. Its proof-based DAST and API scanning efficiently validate vulnerabilities that can be exploited in production environments. The platform also pinpoints weak code and risky dependencies through SAST, SCA, and IaC analyses. Automated SBOM generation ensures continuous tracking of application components for compliance and supply chain security, while its secrets detection capabilities identify exposed credentials and tokens.
Intelligent correlation and deduplication functionalities streamline the remediation process by correlating verified DAST and SAST findings, thus eliminating duplicate reports. Additionally, it maps runtime issues directly to the code and the developer responsible, enabling faster and more precise fixes.
Integration and Continuous Assurance
AppSec Core minimizes setup efforts and ongoing maintenance requirements
With integrations for CI/CD pipelines, issue tracking, notifications, and developer security training platforms, AppSec Core minimizes setup efforts and ongoing maintenance requirements. It consolidates findings for clear visibility and applies reachability, exploitability, and business context to prioritize critical issues, using its superior proof-based DAST to identify and verify risks not detected by static analyses.
"Security teams shouldn't have to sift through thousands of theoretical vulnerabilities or stitch together findings from multiple vendors," commented Neil Roseman, CEO of Invicti. "Invicti AppSec Core proves which vulnerabilities are exploitable in running applications, thus turning AppSec into a driver of secure, high-velocity development."
Streamlined Onboarding and Deployment
Invicti AppSec Core offers quick onboarding through automated workflows and seamless CI/CD and ticketing system integrations.
Teams can start rapidly by connecting code repositories and defining target applications and APIs, with the platform handling subsequent processes. Available as a cloud-hosted SaaS, Invicti AppSec Core provides enterprise-grade security with proof-based validation and centralized management.
Invicti Security announces the launch of Invicti AppSec Core, an all-in-one application security platform designed to cut through scanner noise and keep AppSec teams focused on real, exploitable runtime risks throughout the software development lifecycle (SDLC).
Built for lean security teams, AppSec Core delivers unified visibility and control with all the essential tools needed to secure web and API applications, from code to cloud to runtime.
AppSec Core addresses the key security challenges organizations face today:
- Overwhelming volumes of alerts from siloed scanners that obscure real, exploitable risks
- Overloaded security teams struggling to prioritise the most dangerous runtime risks and deliver actionable evidence for developer remediation
- The need to accelerate AppSec maturity during CISO transitions, mergers and acquisitions, and ahead of regulatory audits
Supply chain security
Built on Invicti’s ASPM (formerly Kondukto) and the industry’s best DAST, AppSec Core extends Invicti’s focus on alert accuracy and delivering actionable insights. It incorporates Invicti’s DNA for reducing noise across six additional security areas, including SAST, SCA, SBOM, container, secrets, and IaC.
- API and web app discovery: Identify and document shadow APIs and web applications
- Proof-based DAST and API scanning: Validates vulnerabilities that are truly exploitable in production
- SAST, SCA, container security, and IaC: Pinpoints vulnerable code and risky dependencies across environments
- Automated SBOM generation: Continuously tracks application components for compliance and supply chain security
- Secrets detection: Identifies exposed credentials and tokens across code, artifacts, and runtime environments
- Intelligent correlation and deduplication: Eliminates duplicate findings and speeds remediation by correlating verified DAST to SAST findings
- DAST to SAST Correlation: Maps runtime issues directly to code and originating developer for faster fixes
Continuous security assurance
With built-in integrations for CI/CD pipelines, issue tracking, notifications, and developer security training platforms, AppSec Core minimizes setup effort and reduces ongoing maintenance.
Invicti AppSec Core brings runtime intelligence into every stage of the CI/CD pipeline. It consolidates findings into a single view and applies reachability, exploitability, and business context to prioritise the issues that truly matter. Then, the industry’s best proof-based DAST identifies and verifies the remaining risks that static analysis miss or can’t catch. By combining static inside-out runtime context with dynamic outside-in runtime evidence, Invicti delivers continuous security assurance across the SDLC.
Defining target applications
“Security teams shouldn’t have to sift through thousands of theoretical vulnerabilities or stitch together findings from multiple vendors,” said Neil Roseman, CEO of Invicti. “Invicti AppSec Core proves which vulnerabilities are exploitable in running applications, pinpoints exactly where to fix them in code, turning AppSec into a driver of secure, high-velocity development.”
Invicti AppSec Core delivers fast time to value with simple onboarding, automated workflows, and seamless CI/CD and ticketing integrations. Teams can get started in minutes—just connect code repositories and define target applications and APIs, and AppSec Core handles the rest. Available immediately as a cloud-hosted SaaS platform, Invicti AppSec Core provides enterprise-grade application security with proof-based validation and centralised management.
