Contrast Security announced the launch of CodeSec by Contrast Security (CodeSec), an easy to use, self-service, enterprise-tested application security solution available to all developers at no cost.
With seamless sign-up, the fastest and most accurate scanner in the market, and immediate, actionable results, developers can start scanning code and serverless environments with CodeSec to go from zero to secure in less than five minutes.

CodeSec – Scan optimizes code security for Java, JavaScript and .NET with fast, industry-leading scans and actionable remediation guidance in a simple command-line interface. CodeSec – Serverless takes advantage of a new ground-breaking application security tool for serverless environments in AWS Lambda Functions (Java + Python) that detects serverless security vulnerabilities instantly while providing actionable remediation guidance in a simple command-line interface.
“It is our mission to get secure code moving — and we mean ALL code — which is why we've decided to give every developer access to our cutting-edge technology for free,” said Alan Naumann, Chairman of the Board, President and CEO at Contrast Security. “CodeSec is the fastest tool available in the market. But don’t just take our word, try it now!”

- Faste and Accurate Scanner: Delivers up to 10x faster scan rates. Recognized as the fastest & most accurate Java scanner in the market.
- Immediate & Actionable Results: Scan code for traditional environments and serverless functions, find 70% more critical vulnerabilities and receive actionable results with 6x more true positives in seconds. Prioritizes vulnerabilities and provides actionable remediation guidance.
- From Start to Finish in Minutes: Frictionless and seamless signup process with GitHub or Google Account. Optionally, use a provided GitHub Action to automate the linkage to your GitHub pipeline – from zero to secure in less than five minutes. Enables developers to automate common workflows.
