Qwiet AI Is Now Harness SAST and SCA
Blog post from Harness
Modern application security is challenged by the rapid pace of AI-driven development and cloud-native architectures, which increase both microservices and pipelines, often leaving DevOps teams responsible for catching vulnerabilities before production. Traditional methods of bolting security onto CI/CD pipelines are insufficient, causing alert fatigue and slowing down processes due to numerous false positives. Harness introduces AI-powered application security testing natively within its platform to reduce noise and improve trust in security findings by focusing on vulnerabilities that are actually reachable in production code. This pipeline-native approach allows for scalable security testing with pre-configured, reusable steps, enhancing operational efficiency by integrating security as a seamless part of the software delivery process. The Harness platform's integration of SAST and SCA tools, originally from Qwiet AI, provides deep visibility into open-source risks and offers AI-powered remediation suggestions, facilitating faster and more reliable vulnerability management. The visual workflow in Harness's STO simplifies integration, allowing developers to drag and drop security steps into their pipelines without complex configurations, thus improving security coverage and reducing the operational burden typically associated with application security testing.
