Developer teams that want to ensure security on every code commit
About Semgrep
Modern security teams are “paving the road” for developers — enforcing code guardrails on every commit. r2c’s Semgrep can eliminate vulnerability classes organization-wide. Scale your security team with lightweight static analysis. Semgrep is a fast, open-source, static analysis tool that excels at expressing code standards — without complicated queries — and surfacing bugs early in the development flow. Precise rules look like the code you’re searching; no more traversing abstract syntax trees or wrestling with regexes. Start right away with 900+ rules and SaaS infrastructure to get fast results in your editor, at commit-time, or in CI. When off-the-shelf rules aren’t enough, quickly and intuitively write custom rules to express your unique code standards. Rules look like the code you’re searching. For example, rules for Go look like Go. Find function calls, class or method definitions, and more without having to understand abstract syntax trees or wrestle with regexes.

CodeQL
Discover vulnerabilities across a codebase with CodeQL, our industry-leading semantic code analysis engine. CodeQL lets you query code as though it were data. Write a query to find all variants of a vulnerability, eradicating it forever. Then share your query to help others do the same. CodeQL is free for research and open source. Run real queries on popular open source codebases using CodeQL for Visual Studio Code. See how powerful it is to discover a bad pattern and then find similar occurrences across the entire codebase. You can create CodeQL databases yourself for any project that's under an OSI-approved open source license. GitHub CodeQL can only be used on codebases that are released under an OSI-approved open source license, to perform academic research, or to generate CodeQL databases for or during automated analysis. Download and add the project’s CodeQL database to VS Code, or create a CodeQL database using the CodeQL CLI.
