Checkmarx, the industry leader in cloud-native application security for the enterprise, and Wiz, a forefront provider of cloud security solutions, are pleased to announce an extended partnership to further enrich the Wiz platform. This enhancement marks the first-ever integration providing static application security testing (SAST) results to a cloud-native application protection platform (CNAPP) vendor, setting a new industry standard for application security and cloud protection.

This new integration builds on the early results of the partnership, which enriched application security findings with cloud insights on network exposure to prioritize remediation and fine-tune risk scores. Checkmarx is the first AppSec vendor to enrich the Wiz platform with SAST scan results at the repository level, with additional plans to extend to other security engines in the future. This supports a comprehensive security strategy from code to cloud and back.

“We truly believe that code to cloud is a reality and not just a vision,” said Ori Bendet, VP of Product Management at Checkmarx. “By utilizing a bi-directional integration, ...
... we close the gaps on both sides, providing the missing context for application security and development teams as well as the missing actionability for cloud and operations teams. This will revolutionize how teams approach both application and cloud security.”
