Advanced user of Micro Focus Fortify Static Code AnalzyerThe ease of use and an intuitive UI makes using the Fortify Static Code Analyzer quite easy for people who are new to it. A topic as complex as Security becomes manageable as the tool provides detailed reports on what the vulnerabilities are with their severity level and quite an extensive description of what is causing the vulnerability and recommendations to fix it. This makes life for the developers who might be new to Security.
Some newer language syntax of certain languages like Java 8+ might not be understood by Fortify which leads to false positives. Also, certain non-fixeable vulnerabilities for which exceptions were provided would pop back up once in a while, which is a bit annoying.
It's an amazing tool to start your journey towards making your application secure.
We majorly solve security vulnerabilities that could be caused due to bad programming on our front and also weed out open source libraries that we use which could introduce vulnerabilities through their transient dependencies. Also as the vulnerability list keeps getting updated regularly we are made aware of any new issue that was recently reported allowing us to keep our application secure proactively.
