Overview
Semgrep is a code security platform designed to help developers and security teams catch, flag, and fix real vulnerabilities before they reach production. It unifies static application security testing (SAST), software composition analysis (SCA), and secrets scanning into a single platform. Semgrep employs semantic analysis and AI reasoning to detect complex issues like IDORs and business logic flaws, going beyond simple pattern matching. It integrates into developer workflows such as IDEs, CI/CD pipelines, and PR checks, providing clear, actionable findings and tailored remediation guidance. Semgrep aims to reduce false positives, prioritize reachable vulnerabilities, and improve code security across modern software development lifecycles, supporting both human-written and AI-generated code.
