Company profile
researched Aug 2026Veracode, Inc. develops an Application Risk Management Platform that identifies security risks across the software development lifecycle, automates the fixing of flaws, and supports governance and compliance reporting. The platform provides security teams with unified visibility across source code, dependencies, containers, and runtime signals, while giving developers remediation guidance and AI-generated fixes inside the tools they already use. Leadership and executive stakeholders are served through governance, reporting, and policy controls intended to demonstrate remediation progress at enterprise scale.
The company positions its offering around four use cases: securing applications that incorporate or are built with AI-generated code, securing the software supply chain including third-party libraries and open-source components, embedding security practices and tooling across phases of the SDLC, and accelerating identification, prioritization, and remediation of flaws. Veracode describes its analysis as combining security research, proprietary data, and AI-driven analysis to reduce false positives and improve prioritization from code through runtime, with an emphasis on reducing accumulated security debt.
