  • Auto-remediation workflow for computer security testing utilizing pre-existing security controls
    Patent number: 11042645
    Abstract: Techniques for performing auto-remediation on computer system vulnerabilities in source code utilizing local repositories are disclosed herein. An application source code representation is scanned to determine any security vulnerabilities and from those vulnerabilities, a set of security patch rules are generated that may be used to automatically remediate the vulnerabilities. One or more of the security patch rules is selected for verification and, once verified may be used to generate a security patch. The security patch may then be automatically applied to the source code representation to produce a patched representation of the application source code with the vulnerability at least partly remediated.
    Type: Grant

  • Position analysis of source code vulnerabilities
    Patent number: 9792443
    Abstract: Techniques for performing position analysis on a representation of an application source code are disclosed herein. An application source code is scanned to produce a representation of the application source code, start locations within the representation are determined, corresponding stop locations within the representation are determined, and a set of data impact locations within the representation are determined. The set of data impact locations are then used in a dataflow analysis to determine a position of high control of the data within the representation.
