Driving enterprise adoption of AI code security with Semgrep Assistant
Blog post from Semgrep
Semgrep Assistant is a tool designed to enhance application security by providing context-aware insights and remediation guidance for unsafe code, surpassing traditional Static Application Security Testing (SAST) tools. It streamlines the validation and triage process, saving significant time for developers and security engineers, as evidenced by the thousands of hours saved at companies like Vanta, Figma, and Webflow. The tool leverages Semgrep's deterministic SAST engine, allowing it to perform complex security tasks without relying solely on AI models, thus ensuring enterprises are not dependent on a single model provider. Addressing common challenges associated with AI adoption, such as data privacy and compliance, Semgrep Assistant ensures that customer data is not used to train models and offers flexible model selection options to meet compliance requirements. Enterprise users can choose from various AI platforms, maintaining control over their data and ensuring alignment with internal policies.
