Invicti Security has unveiled the Invicti AppSec Core, a comprehensive application security platform aimed at enhancing focus on real, exploitable risks throughout the software development lifecycle (SDLC). Tailored for lean security teams, the platform delivers unified control and essential security tools for web and API applications, covering stages from code to cloud to runtime.
AppSec Core is designed to tackle prevalent security issues such as the overwhelming number of alerts from isolated scanners that obscure significant risks. It assists overwhelmed security teams in prioritising critical runtime risks and delivering actionable evidence for developers. Moreover, the platform aids in accelerating AppSec maturity during critical organisational changes like CISO transitions, mergers, acquisitions, and regulatory audits.
Supply chain security and more
Built upon Invicti’s ASPM and leveraging advanced DAST capabilities, AppSec Core focuses on alert accuracy and actionable insights. Its features extend across several security vulnerabilities, including SAST, SCA, SBOM, containers, secrets, and Infrastructure as Code (IaC). The platform allows for the discovery and documentation of shadow APIs and web applications, validates exploitable vulnerabilities in production, and pinpoints vulnerable code and risky dependencies in various environments.
AppSec Core generates automated SBOMs for continuous tracking of application components
AppSec Core generates automated SBOMs for continuous tracking of application components, ensuring compliance and supply chain security. It detects exposed credentials and tokens across code and runtime environments and employs intelligent correlation to eliminate duplicate findings, expediting remediation processes. By mapping runtime issues directly to their source code and originating developers, the platform ensures faster resolution of security issues.
Continuous security and assurance
Integrating seamlessly with CI/CD pipelines, issue tracking, and developer training platforms, AppSec Core minimises setup efforts and reduces ongoing maintenance. It incorporates runtime intelligence into every CI/CD pipeline stage, consolidating findings and prioritising crucial issues based on reachability, exploitability, and business context. The proof-based DAST component identifies and verifies risks that static analyses might miss, delivering continuous security assurance across the SDLC.
Neil Roseman, CEO of Invicti, commented, "Security teams shouldn’t have to sift through thousands of theoretical vulnerabilities or stitch together findings from multiple vendors. Invicti AppSec Core proves which vulnerabilities are exploitable in running applications, pinpoints exactly where to fix them in code, turning AppSec into a driver of secure, high-velocity development."
Onboarding and availability
Invicti AppSec Core promises rapid realisation of value through straightforward onboarding, automated workflows, and smooth CI/CD and ticketing integrations.
Teams can be operational within minutes by connecting code repositories and defining target applications and APIs. Immediately available as a cloud-hosted SaaS platform, AppSec Core offers enterprise-grade application security with proof-based validation and centralised management.
Invicti Security announces the launch of Invicti AppSec Core, an all-in-one application security platform designed to cut through scanner noise and keep AppSec teams focused on real, exploitable runtime risks throughout the software development lifecycle (SDLC).
Built for lean security teams, AppSec Core delivers unified visibility and control with all the essential tools needed to secure web and API applications, from code to cloud to runtime.
AppSec Core addresses the key security challenges organisations face today:
- Overwhelming volumes of alerts from siloed scanners that obscure real, exploitable risks
- Overloaded security teams struggling to prioritise the most dangerous runtime risks and deliver actionable evidence for developer remediation
- The need to accelerate AppSec maturity during CISO transitions, mergers and acquisitions, and ahead of regulatory audits
Supply chain security
Built on Invicti’s ASPM (formerly Kondukto) and the industry’s best DAST, AppSec Core extends Invicti’s focus on alert accuracy and delivering actionable insights. It incorporates Invicti’s DNA for reducing noise across six additional security areas, including SAST, SCA, SBOM, container, secrets, and IaC.
- API and web app discovery: Identify and document shadow APIs and web applications
- Proof-based DAST and API scanning: Validates vulnerabilities that are truly exploitable in production
- SAST, SCA, container security, and IaC: Pinpoints vulnerable code and risky dependencies across environments
- Automated SBOM generation: Continuously tracks application components for compliance and supply chain security
- Secrets detection: Identifies exposed credentials and tokens across code, artifacts, and runtime environments
- Intelligent correlation and deduplication: Eliminates duplicate findings and speeds remediation by correlating verified DAST to SAST findings
- DAST to SAST Correlation: Maps runtime issues directly to code and originating developer for faster fixes
Continuous security assurance
With built-in integrations for CI/CD pipelines, issue tracking, notifications, and developer security training platforms, AppSec Core minimises setup effort and reduces ongoing maintenance.
Invicti AppSec Core brings runtime intelligence into every stage of the CI/CD pipeline. It consolidates findings into a single view and applies reachability, exploitability, and business context to prioritise the issues that truly matter. Then, the industry’s best proof-based DAST identifies and verifies the remaining risks that static analysis miss or can’t catch. By combining static inside-out runtime context with dynamic outside-in runtime evidence, Invicti delivers continuous security assurance across the SDLC.
Defining target applications
“Security teams shouldn’t have to sift through thousands of theoretical vulnerabilities or stitch together findings from multiple vendors,” said Neil Roseman, CEO of Invicti. “Invicti AppSec Core proves which vulnerabilities are exploitable in running applications, pinpoints exactly where to fix them in code, turning AppSec into a driver of secure, high-velocity development.”
Invicti AppSec Core delivers fast time to value with simple onboarding, automated workflows, and seamless CI/CD and ticketing integrations. Teams can get started in minutes—just connect code repositories and define target applications and APIs, and AppSec Core handles the rest. Available immediately as a cloud-hosted SaaS platform, Invicti AppSec Core provides enterprise-grade application security with proof-based validation and centralised management.
