Bearer

Bearer has been acquired by Cycode, which enhances its offerings in code security through the Bearer Cloud and Bearer CLI, an open-source Static Application Security Testing (SAST) engine. The company aims to enable secure software development by integrating security measures directly into the developer workflow, facilitating faster detection and remediation of vulnerabilities.

The Bearer CLI is designed to scan source code and analyze data flows to identify security and privacy risks. It supports various programming languages, including JavaScript, Ruby, Java, Python, Golang, and PHP. Key functionalities of Bearer CLI include:

- CI/CD Integration: Seamlessly integrate security checks into your continuous integration and deployment pipelines.
- Compliance Reporting: Generate reports to ensure compliance with various security standards and regulations.
- Custom Detection Rules: Extend the capabilities of Bearer CLI by creating custom detection rules tailored to your specific requirements.

The tool prioritizes issues based on the risk of sensitive data breaches, making it a unique solution in the SAST landscape. Bearer's developer-friendly approach ensures that security processes do not overwhelm developers, thus enhancing productivity while maintaining robust security measures.

With its dedication to identifying security and privacy risks in application code, Bearer helps organizations effectively manage sensitive data and improve their overall security posture.
