clean code with deeper SAST
Sonar’s new deeper SAST capability empowers organizations to identify and resolve application code issues originating from interactions with third-party open-source libraries. This unique feature enables Sonar's SAST to trace data flow in and out of libraries, effectively uncovering deeply concealed security vulnerabilities that other tools fail to detect.
Deeper SAST boosts the existing SAST engine, which already encompasses deep taint analysis, comprehensive security rules, cloud secret detection, and much more. Now, with this innovative technology, commercial editions of SonarQube and SonarCloud provide full visibility into the inner workings of the most popular libraries, ensuring unparalleled code analysis.
With Sonar's deeper SAST, organizations can confidently tackle code security challenges, achieve robust application security, and enjoy the benefits of a reliable and fortified codebase.

code security and compliance
comprehensive detection engine and coverage
find deeply hidden security issues
99% of software applications use and interact with the code in third-party libraries (dependencies). Today, most SAST tools only analyze application code and not library code which are mostly a black box for these tools. Deeper SAST from Sonar extends code analysis and scanning to cover the unknown parts of the code that are in the open-source dependencies. Scanning dependencies (libraries) allows Sonar SAST to extend the dataflow analysis and find deeply hidden security issues in code that other tools cannot find. Deeper SAST is available today for Java, C#, and JavaScript/TypeScript in SonarQube and SonarCloud. It supports thousands of the topmost and commonly used open-source libraries, including their subsequent (transitive) dependencies. It scales automatically and will be expanded to cover more languages and libraries in the future. Machine Learning (ML) is used for optimization.

security analysis
Designed to detect and fix a wide range of code issues that can lead to bugs and security vulnerabilities, Sonar supports over 30 programming languages and frameworks. Sonar's security analysis can help detect a broad range of security issues such as SQL injection vulnerabilities, cross-site scripting (XSS) code injection attacks, buffer overflows, authentication issues, cloud secrets detection and much more. Our security rules are classified according to well-established security standards such as PCI DSS, CWE Top 25, and OWASP Top 10.
Security Hotspots > Code Review
Security hotspots are instances of security-sensitive code that require human review. Developers can learn to evaluate security risks and improve their understanding of secure coding practices by working with security hotspots.
Security Vulnerabilities > Code Change/fix
Security Vulnerabilities require immediate action. Sonar provides detailed issue descriptions and code highlights that explain why your code is at risk. Just follow the guidance, check in a fix, and secure your application.
maximum protection with taint analysis
Chase down the bad actors
Making sure user-provided data is sanitized before it hits critical systems (database, file system, OS, etc.) helps ensure your code security. Taint analysis tracks untrusted user input throughout the execution flow - across not just methods but also from file to file.
Critical code security rules for vital languages
Get highly relevant rules for critical languages to help keep your code secure with SAST tooling.
Languages like Java, PHP, C#, C, C++, Python, JavaScript, TypeScript, and more.

Sonar Security Reports
Security reports quickly give you the big picture of your code’s compliance with security standards. The reports allow you to know where you stand compared to the most common security mistakes. Regulatory reports track the quality of each release and provide evidence that the code delivered meets the quality standards of the organization.
Reports include:
- PCI DSS (versions 4.0 and 3.2.1)
- OWASP Top 10 (versions 2021 and 2017)
- CWE Top 25 (versions 2022, 2021, and 2020)
- OWASP ASVS (version 4.0 with level 1 to 3)
your end-to-end SAST tool
Seamlessly integrate static analysis into your software development workflow
DevOps and CI/CD
Integrating SAST into the DevOps and CI/CD pipelines empowers organizations to enhance the security posture of their software and ensure that vulnerabilities are identified early in the development lifecycle. Security analysis tools become an integral part of the development process and receive early real-time feedback as they commit code changes. Sonar integrations are supported for popular DevOps and CI/CD Platforms including GitHub, GitLab, Azure Devops, TravisCI, CircleCI, and Bitbucket. Sonar provides native support for the most popular SCMs including Git , Subversion and community support for other popular SCMs such as CVS, Jazz RTC, Mercurial, TFVC.
