Bearer CLI
Bearer is a static application security testing (SAST) tool designed to scan your source code and analyze data flows to identify, filter, and prioritize security and privacy risks. It offers both a free, open-source solution (Bearer CLI) and a commercial solution (Bearer Pro) available through Cycode.
Key Features:
- Security Scanning: Detects vulnerabilities using built-in rules covering the OWASP Top 10 and CWE Top 25.
- Privacy Scanning: Identifies sensitive data flows, including PII and PHI, to help generate privacy reports for compliance.
- Multi-Language Support: Supports various programming languages including Go, Java, JavaScript, TypeScript, PHP, Python, and Ruby.
- Fast Scanning: Scans can take as little as 20 seconds, depending on the size of the codebase.
- Integration: Easily integrates into CI/CD pipelines for automated security checks on new pull requests.
Benefits:
- Prioritization: Focuses on the most critical security risks, reducing the noise often associated with SAST tools.
- Open Source: Free to use within organizations, promoting accessibility and community contributions.
- Developer-Friendly: Designed with a great developer experience in mind, making it easy to adopt and use.
Highlights:
- Interprocedural Analysis: Bearer Pro supports advanced analysis across function and file boundaries, significantly reducing false positives.
- Community Support: Join the Bearer community on Discord for support and collaboration.
