# Code repository scans with Wiz

You can easily set up a Wiz step to run automated scans in your Harness pipelines. This step scans the code repository you specify using the Wiz CLI. Then it correlates, deduplicates, and ingests the scan results into STO. You can see your scan results in the [Vulnerabilities](/security-testing-orchestration/3.0/use-sto/sto-security-issues/view-scan-results.md) tab of the pipeline execution.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Wiz CLI Upgrade Notice**

The Wiz CLI will be upgraded from version `0.x` to `1.x`. Harness STO supports this upgrade transparently, and no pipeline changes are required. CLI version `0.x` will continue to work with existing credentials, while CLI version `1.x` requires new credentials. Credentials used with CLI `0.x` are not supported in CLI `v1.x`.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
**ISSUE TYPES FOR WIZ REPOSITORY SCANS**

When you scan a code repository with Wiz (Scan Configuration = **Wiz Directory**), STO now correctly categorizes findings as SAST or SCA issues. As a result, the same repository scan can show more SCA issues and fewer SAST issues. The scan did not find new issues; STO only fixed how it labels them.
{% endhint %}

### Important notes for running Wiz scans in STO <a href="#important-notes-for-running-wiz-scans-in-sto" id="important-notes-for-running-wiz-scans-in-sto"></a>

* You can set up your STO scan images and pipelines to run scans as non-root and establish trust for your proxies using custom certificates. For more information, go to [Configure your pipeline to use STO images from private registry](/security-testing-orchestration/3.0/troubleshooting-and-resources/sto-use-cases/set-up-sto-pipelines/configure-pipeline-to-use-sto-images-from-private-registry.md).
* If you use Wiz for Gov or GovCloud on Linux/macOS, configure `WIZ_ENV` environment variable in your wiz stage settings.
  * For `app.wiz.us` (Wiz for Gov, FedRAMP), set `WIZ_ENV=fedramp`.
  * For `gov.wiz.io` (GovCloud), set `WIZ_ENV=gov`.

### Set-up workflows <a href="#set-up-workflows" id="set-up-workflows"></a>

<details>

<summary>Orchestration scans for code repositories</summary>

**Prerequisites**

* You can run STO scans in [Harness Cloud](/continuous-integration/use-harness-ci/use-harness-ci/set-up-build-infrastructure/use-harness-cloud-build-infrastructure.md), which requires no setup. You can also set up a [Kubernetes](/continuous-integration/use-harness-ci/use-harness-ci/set-up-build-infrastructure/k8s-build-infrastructure/set-up-a-kubernetes-cluster-build-infrastructure.md) or [Docker](/continuous-integration/use-harness-ci/use-harness-ci/set-up-build-infrastructure/define-a-docker-build-infrastructure.md) build infrastructure.
* [Harness text secrets](/harness-ai/use-harness-platform/secrets/add-use-text-secrets.md) for your `client-id` and `client-secret` to authenticate with the Wiz CLI

**Add the Wiz scanner**

```
Do the following:

1. Add a Build or Security stage to your pipeline.
2. Add a Wiz step to the stage.
```

**Set up the Wiz scanner**

**Required settings**

```
1. [Scan mode](#scan-mode) = **Orchestration**
```

2\. [Target type](#type) = **Repository** 3. [Scan Configuration](#scan-configuration) = **Wiz Directory** 4. [Target and Variant Detection](#detect-target-and-variant) = **Auto** 5. Authentication: 1. [Wiz access ID](#access-id-1) as a Harness secret. This is your `client-id` to authenticate with the Wiz CLI. 2. [Wiz access token](#access-token) as a Harness secret. This is your `client-secret` to authenticate with the Wiz CLI.

**Optional settings**

* [Fail on Severity](#fail-on-severity) — Stop the pipeline if the scan detects any issues at a specified severity or higher
* [Log Level](#log-level) — Useful for debugging

<summary>Ingestion scans for code repositories</summary>

{% hint style="info" %}
Harness STO can ingest both JSON and SARIF data from Wiz, but Harness recommends publishing to JSON because this format includes more detailed information.
{% endhint %}

**Add a shared path for your scan results**

1. Add a Build or Security stage to your pipeline. 2. In the stage **Overview**, add a shared path such as `/shared/scan_results`.

**Copy scan results to the shared path**

There are two primary workflows to do this:

* Add a Run step that runs a Wiz scan from the command line and then copies the results to the shared path.
* Copy results from a Wiz scan that ran outside the pipeline.

For more information and examples, go to [Ingestion scans](/security-testing-orchestration/3.0/new-to-sto/key-concepts/ingest-scan-results-into-an-sto-pipeline.md).

**Set up the Wiz scanner**

Add a Wiz step to the stage and set it up as follows.

**Required settings**

1. [Scan mode](#scan-mode) = **Ingestion**
2. [Target type](#type) = **Code Repository**
3. [Target name](#name) — Usually the repo name
4. [Target variant](#name) — Usually the scanned branch. You can also use a [runtime input](/harness-ai/use-harness-platform/variables-and-expressions/runtime-input-usage.md) and specify the branch at runtime.
5. [Ingestion file](#ingestion-file) — For example, `/shared/scan_results/wiz-scan.json`
6. Save the pipeline and select **Visual**.

**Optional settings**

* [Fail on Severity](#fail-on-severity) — Stop the pipeline if the scan detects any issues at a specified severity or higher
* [Log Level](#log-level) — Useful for debugging

### Wiz step settings reference <a href="#wiz-step-settings-reference" id="wiz-step-settings-reference"></a>

The recommended workflow is to add a Wiz step to a Security Tests or CI Build stage and then configure it as described below.

#### Scan <a href="#scan" id="scan"></a>

**Scan Mode**

**Scan Configuration**

Select **Wiz Directory**.

#### Target <a href="#target" id="target"></a>

**Type**

**Target and Variant Detection**

**Name**

The identifier for the [target](/security-testing-orchestration/3.0/new-to-sto/key-concepts/targets-and-baselines.md) such `codebaseAlpha`. Descriptive target names make it much easier to navigate your scan data in the STO UI.

It is good practice to [specify a baseline](/security-testing-orchestration/3.0/new-to-sto/key-concepts/targets-and-baselines.md#every-target-needs-a-baseline) for every target.

**Variant**

**Workspace**

#### Artifacts <a href="#artifacts" id="artifacts"></a>

**Type**

**Domain**

**Name**

**Tag/Digest**

**Access ID**

**Access Token**

#### Ingestion File <a href="#ingestion-file" id="ingestion-file"></a>

The path to your scan results when running an [Ingestion scan](/security-testing-orchestration/3.0/new-to-sto/key-concepts/ingest-scan-results-into-an-sto-pipeline.md), for example `/shared/scan_results/wiz.latest.json`.

* The data file must be in a [supported format](/security-testing-orchestration/3.0/new-to-sto/sto-whats-supported/scanners.md#supported-ingestion-formats) for the scanner.
* The data file must be accessible to the scan step. It's good practice to save your results files to a [shared path](/continuous-integration/new-to-harness-ci/key-concepts.md#stages) in your stage. In the visual editor, go to the stage where you're running the scan. Then go to **Overview** > **Shared Paths**. You can also add the path to the YAML stage definition like this:

  ```yaml
      - stage:
        spec:
          sharedPaths:
            - /shared/scan_results
  ```

#### Authentication <a href="#authentication" id="authentication"></a>

**Access ID**

This is your `client-id` to authenticate with the Wiz CLI.

**Access Token**

This is your `client-secret` to authenticate with the Wiz CLI.

You should create a Harness text secret with your encrypted token and reference the secret using the format `<+secrets.getValue("my-access-token")>`. For more information, go to [Add and Reference Text Secrets](/harness-ai/use-harness-platform/secrets/add-use-text-secrets.md).

#### Log Level <a href="#log-level" id="log-level"></a>

#### Additional CLI flags <a href="#additional-cli-flags" id="additional-cli-flags"></a>

{% hint style="warning" %}
Passing CLI flags is an advanced feature. Some flags might not work in the context of STO. You should test your flags and arguments thoroughly before you use them in your production environment.
{% endhint %}

#### Fail on Severity <a href="#fail-on-severity" id="fail-on-severity"></a>

#### Settings <a href="#settings" id="settings"></a>

You can add more settings to the scan step as needed.

#### Additional Configuration <a href="#additional-configuration" id="additional-configuration"></a>

#### Advanced settings <a href="#advanced-settings" id="advanced-settings"></a>
