The following sections describe the scanners supported by Harness STO, based on the target type:

In addition to the listed supported scanners, the Custom Scan step allows the use of various other scanners. For a complete list of supported scanners, refer to Scanners Supported with Custom Scan Step.

Code repo scanners

A code scanner can detect one or more of the following issue types in your source code. For information about the specific vulnerabilities detected by each scanner, go to the scanner provider's documentation.

  • SAST (Static Application Security Testing): Known vulnerabilities in open-source and proprietary code.

  • SCA (Software Composition Analysis): Known vulnerabilities in open-source libraries and packages used by the code.

  • Secrets: Hard-coded secrets such as access keys and passwords.

  • IaC: Known vulnerabilities in Infrastructure-as-Code files such as Terraform configurations.

  • Misconfigurations: Known vulnerabilities in software configurations.

Instance scanners

An instance scanner scans a running application for vulnerabilities by simulating a malicious external actor exploiting known vulnerabilities. This is also known as a DAST (Dynamic Application Security Testing) scan.

For information about the specific vulnerabilities detected by each scanner, go to the scanner provider's documentation.
