About Semgrep Expand
Semgrep provides an application security testing platform for developers and security teams. It focuses on automating the detection of vulnerabilities in source code through Static Application Security Testing (SAST), Software Composition Analysis (SCA), and Secrets Detection.
The platform integrates into existing CI/CD pipelines, allowing teams to identify and address security issues early in the development process. Its positioning emphasizes developer experience and actionable insights, aiming to reduce the noise often associated with security scanning tools.
A free tier supports up to 10 contributors and 10 repositories, making it accessible for smaller teams and open-source projects.
